Shock Wave Therapy
Chronic scar tissue, muscle tension, tendon problems, joint calcifications can stop most people from ever getting better. If you have tried chiropractic, massage, physical therapy, or other modalities without success, Shock Wave -Radial Pressure Wave may be the thing that you are missing! This therapy is often described by patients as “Just the thing that I feel like I’ve needed for years”!
Shockwave Therapy creates an acoustic sound wave (not ultrasound) that penetrates into the tight or chronically injured area. The waves increase the ‘slide and glide’ of the connective tissue that had long since turned into scar tissue and adhesions. Shockwave allows for a faster healing, and a restoration of a softer connective tissue. There is no electrical shock at all with this device- it is an acoustic wave that is generated by the device.
Radial Pressure Wave for Safe, Effective & Non-Invasive Healing
Scar tissue can pinch, twist, squeeze nerves triggering chronic pain. Scar tissue itself can be up to a 1000X more pain sensitive than healthy tissue. Thankfully, we have Radial Pressure Wave Therapy (often referred to as Shock Wave Therapy) which is:

How Long Are The Treatments and How Many Will It Take?
Every person’s condition is unique to them, and this affects the treatment time. Typically, the treatment times last anywhere from 10-15 minutes per region. They are based on how many ‘impulse waves’ are applied to the area. The total number of treatments required typically ranges from 4-6. It depends on the factors that your doctor finds regarding your body’s particular condition. The goal is to restore your body to its best condition- not just to make the pain go away. This is why the entire course of treatments will be recommended. Even when pain goes away quickly, the underlying cause will still be treated if long-lasting results are to be experienced. Pain is typically the last thing to show up and the first thing to go away.
