Shockwave
Shockwave can enhance the body's natural healing process and shorten your recovery time. It can be especially helpful for myofascial and tendon issues.
Shockwave can be especially helpful when treating:
Foot and ankle concerns (i.e. plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinopathy, chronic ankle sprains)
Lower extremity pains (i.e. hamstring tendinopathy, patella tendonitis, hip bursitis)
Upper extremity pains (i.e. elbow tendonitis, carpal tunnel syndrome)
Upper and lower back muscle strains
Rotator cuff strains
Whiplash
Myofascial trigger points
How does it work?
Shockwave therapy is essentially the use of powerful sound waves. The shockwave machine generates these pulse waves with unparalleled accuracy. These pulses are transmitted directly to your tissue.
The results?
Stimulated metabolism and enhanced blood circulation, two vital components of your body's natural healing process. Shockwave therapy triggers micro-damages to tissue, promoting gradual regeneration and ultimate healing.
Why try shockwave?
Shockwave is a great alternative to invasive procedures like corticosteroids, nerve-blocks, and surgeries.
