Shockwave Therapy
What is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave therapy is a sound wave that penetrates deep into the tissues creating micro-trauma to stimulate your body’s own healing response.
How does Shockwave Therapy work?
There are three ranges of energy levels associated with shockwave therapy: Low, Mid, and High energy.
The following are the biological effects on tissue at each level.
At low energy the repetitive waves temporarily increase blood flow as well as turns off your pain receptors to the injured area, lasting 24-72 hours.
Mid energy regenerates tissue by causing cellular cavitation, recruiting stem cells, and growth factors to the treated site.
Angiogenesis and collagen production begins a short six weeks after treatment. High energy is used to breakdown any scar tissues and calcifications at the affected site.

Why would I want to use Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave is a viable non-invasive treatment option for almost all overuse injuries, strains, sprains, minor tears and scar tissue mitigation.
Shockwave Therapy has is successfully used to treat several conditions. Some of the most common are: Plantar Fasciitis, tennis/golfer’s elbow, Achillies tendonitis, Hamstrings, Patella tendonitis, shin splints, Rotator cuff, frozen shoulder, bicep tendonitis, chronic back pain, trigger points, and much more.
