How Shockwave Therapy Helps Your Body Heal
Shockwave Therapy uses high-energy acoustic pulses to stimulate the body’s natural healing process.
These pulses travel deep into the injured tissue, increasing blood flow, breaking down scar tissue, and triggering cellular repair.
What Actually Happens During Treatment
➡️ A light lubricant may be applied to the area to help treat the affected area.
➡️ A handheld device delivers controlled pulses directly to the painful tissue.
➡️ Your therapist adjusts intensity based on your comfort level.
➡️ A full session typically lasts 10–15 minutes.
Why It Works
Shockwave Therapy:
👉 Reactivates stalled or chronic injuries by stimulating new blood vessel growth.
👉 Breaks up calcifications and adhesions that restrict movement or cause persistent pain.
👉 Increases collagen production, improving tissue strength and elasticity.
👉 Provides fast pain relief by reducing inflammation and desensitizing nerve endings.
How It Feels
Most patients experience:
➡️ A tapping or pulsing sensation with
mild to moderate discomfort over the most irritated spots.
➡️ Immediate relief or reduced tension right after the session.
➡️ Pain relief usually continues to improve over the following 24–48 hours.
➡️ A typical treatment plan includes 3–6 sessions, depending on the condition.
