Shockwave therapy
Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses high-energy sound waves to stimulate healing in damaged tissues. It is commonly used for musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions such as chronic lower back pain, chronic neck pain, plantar fasciitis, shoulder pain, hip pain, knee pain, and other chronic pain concerns.
The Treatment You Receive
During treatment, a clinician uses a handheld device to deliver sound waves to a targeted area of soft tissue. The approach is designed to focus care where it is needed without surgery.
Treatment is provided in the clinic and may be used as part of a broader care plan. Your clinician can discuss what to expect and how the treatment fits your goals.
Shockwave therapy is often used alongside chiropractic care and rehabilitation exercises, depending on your individual needs.
