Shockwave therapy
Shockwave Therapy is a versatile and effective treatment for a range of tendon, muscle and joint conditions.
WHAT IS SHOCKWAVE THERAPY?
Shockwave Therapy is administered externally (extracorporeally) by a portable device and has been used for many years as an alternative to invasive surgeries or traditional rehabilitation. Injuries that fail to respond to conventional treatments often benefit from shockwave therapy as it targets musculoskeletal pathology, facilitating natural healing of the body.
Shockwave Therapy is usually administered on an outpatient basis, with the patient relaxing comfortably during the procedure. The device delivers acoustic shock waves that penetrate the skin and stimulate natural tissue repair mechanisms. Calcified and damaged tissue breaks down as a response to the high-pressure waves, allowing natural healing with little discomfort.
INJURIES THAT BENEFIT FROM SHOCKWAVE THERAPY
- Achilles tendinitis
- Shoulder tendinitis
- Tennis elbow
- Heel spurs
- Degenerative disorders
- Knee pain
- Hip pain
HOW DOES SHOCKWAVE THERAPY WORK?
- Increasing circulation
- Breaking down calcification deposits
- Stimulating fibroblast (soft tissue cells) production – healing ligaments, tendons, muscles…
- Stimulating osteoblast (bone cells) production – healing bone
- Stimulating the “gate-control” mechanism for pain relief
- Inhibiting Cox II Enzyme, producing an anti-inflammatory effect
HOW SOON WILL I SEE RESULTS WITH SHOCKWAVE THERAPY?
Most patients experience a small pain reduction and a greater range of movement immediately after the procedure. This is usually temporary and real results are seen after a few days when the injuries begin to heal. Depending on your condition, healing can take weeks to months, however pain relief usually precedes this.
Radial shockwave therapy is a safe, non-invasive procedure. A contact gel is applied to the area, then a hand held probe is applied to the skin. The probe delivers the acoustic waves in a controlled and focused manner for typically 5-10 minutes per injured area.
