How Shockwave Therapy Works

How Does It Work?

During shockwave therapy, a device applies high-energy acoustic waves to the affected area. These waves create microtrauma in the tissues, which triggers the body’s natural healing response. The therapy is thought to increase blood flow to the targeted area, stimulate the formation of new blood vessels, and promote the release of substances that aid in tissue repair.

Shockwave therapy is used to treat a range of conditions, including plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, tennis elbow, calcific tendonitis of the shoulder, and more. It’s often used when other conservative treatments have failed to provide relief. The procedure is typically performed in a clinical setting and is relatively quick, with minimal discomfort and few side effects for most patients.
