Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses high-energy sound waves to stimulate healing in soft tissues and promote blood circulation. Shockwave therapy is often used to treat chronic conditions like plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinitis, heel spurs, stress fractures, delayed union and other tendon or ligament injuries. The sound waves help reduce pain, improve tissue repair, and enhance the body’s natural healing process by increasing cell metabolism and collagen production.
The procedure typically involves applying a gel to the affected area, followed by the application of the shockwave device. Most patients experience minimal discomfort, and treatments usually take about 15-20 minutes. Shockwave therapy is especially beneficial for those who have not responded well to traditional treatments like rest, physical therapy, or medications, offering a drug-free alternative to manage pain and accelerate recovery.
