This advanced therapy employs acoustic shockwaves to stimulate natural healing processes, improve tissue regeneration, and alleviate pain.
With proven effectiveness in conditions like tendinitis and plantar fasciitis, our experienced physiotherapists utilise shockwave therapy to provide cutting-edge pain relief and promote recovery, ensuring you receive the latest in physiotherapy advancements.
Exploring Shockwave Therapy
A Non-Invasive Solution for Chronic Musculoskeletal ConditionsShockwave therapy, also referred to as Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT), is a breakthrough treatment that harnesses high-energy sound waves to accelerate the body’s innate healing mechanisms. By precisely targeting afflicted areas, it boosts blood circulation, mitigates inflammation, and initiates tissue rejuvenation.
This non-invasive therapy is the preferred choice for addressing an array of chronic musculoskeletal conditions, such as tendon injuries, plantar fasciitis, and shoulder bursitis, offering a promising path to pain relief and recovery.
The Science Behind Shockwave Therapy
How Shockwave Therapy Promotes HealingShockwave therapy utilises intense, high-speed sound waves that travel faster than the speed of sound to initiate a series of beneficial biological responses. These waves induce cavitation, a process where small gas bubbles form and implode within the targeted tissue. This cavitation effect increases cell membrane permeability, promoting the influx of nutrients and oxygen while expelling waste products from the cells. As a result, tissue healing and regeneration are enhanced.
Shockwave therapy is thought to progress through four phases, starting with the immediate shock effect and leading to a cascade of physiological responses that ultimately result in accelerated and long-lasting tissue healing and regeneration.
Conditions Treated by a Shockwave Therapist
Effective Relief for a Range of Musculoskeletal IssuesOur Palm Beach shockwave therapist, Woo, can effectively treat conditions like plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinopathy, shoulder tendinitis, and rotator cuff injuries.
Woo also uses shockwave therapy to treat other musculoskeletal issues, including hip and shoulder bursitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and other tendon-related pains. The treatment is customised depending on the specific condition and patient needs.
Benefits of Shockwave Therapy
A Safe and Effective Alternative to Traditional TreatmentShockwave therapy offers multiple benefits: it’s non-invasive, involves no medications, and has a high success rate in pain reduction and mobility improvement. Patients often experience faster healing and return to normal activities sooner. It’s a safe treatment with minimal side effects, typically involving only mild soreness or redness at the treatment site.
