Shockwave Therapy

What is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that delivers controlled trauma to targeted areas of the body, similar to the effects of acupuncture and remedial massage. This stimulates blood flow, promotes healing, and supports recovery from a variety of conditions.

What Conditions Does It Address?

Shockwave therapy is often used to treat:

• Soft tissue injuries such as muscle tears and ligament strains

• Bone injuries

• Bursitis

• Tendonitis

• Frozen shoulder

• Tennis elbow

• Ankle sprains

• Plantar fasciitis

How is the Therapy Performed?

A handheld device delivers high-energy sound waves to the treatment area, creating controlled microtrauma. This process encourages tissue repair and regeneration. Each session typically lasts 15–30 minutes, with minimal discomfort and no downtime required.

Benefits of Shockwave Therapy

• Promotes blood flow and healing

• Reduces inflammation

• Alleviates pain

• Improves mobility and function

What to Expect

Your practitioner will evaluate your condition and create a personalised treatment plan. Shockwave therapy may be combined with other therapies, such as remedial massage or chiropractic care, for a comprehensive approach to recovery.
