Shockwave therapy triggers your body’s natural healing response to pain. Many patients report reduced pain and improved mobility after the first treatment.
What is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that brings patients back to health sooner. This method utilizes acoustic waves to encourage the healing of injured or damaged tissues. By transmitting sound waves, shockwave therapy promotes regeneration and repair, offering relief for various conditions.
Benefits of Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy accelerates the healing process in the body by stimulating the metabolism and enhancing blood circulation to regenerate the damaged tissue.
Strong energy pulses are applied to the affected area for a short period of time, creating microcavitation bubbles that expand and burst. The force created by these bubbles stimulates cells in the body that are responsible for bone and connective tissue healing. This stimulation leads to faster recovery times and improved pain relief.
When an acoustic pressure wave is transmitted to the body tissue and consequently to the painful area, it creates a pressure wave that transmits radially inside the patient’s body. The energy introduced at the point of contact prompts the body’s natural healing processes, improving blood flow and cellular repair.
