Musculoskeletal Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy, also known as Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT), applies high-frequency pressure waves to the injured area.
Exploring Musculoskeletal Shockwave Therapy
Having an injury can be extremely frustrating, especially a musculoskeletal injury. These types of injuries can often take six weeks or even several months to fully heal and can affect tendons, muscles, ligaments, and bones. Shockwave therapy for musculoskeletal injuries is an effective treatment option to speed up the recovery process while being completely non-invasive. By applying acoustic waves to the injured area, more blood flow can access the area, promoting healing and providing pain relief.
Unlock your full potential
The benefits of shockwave therapy treatment include :
- Faster healing from injury
- Minimal downtime
- Pain relief
- Improved function
- Non-surgical and non-invasive
- Affordable treatment option
What to expect
Shockwave therapy uses a specialized device that is applied to the injured area, which emits shockwaves that will trigger an inflammatory response so that the body can produce more blood flow to the injury. Each session will last approximately 20 minutes. Shockwave therapy is an outpatient procedure with no downtime, enabling patients to drive after each session and resume their normal activities. Many patients receive additional treatment sessions over the course of several weeks to experience the full benefit of treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does ESWT accelerate the healing process?
ESWT (Extracorporeal shockwave therapy) is believed to accelerate the healing process in certain conditions. It delivers acoustic pressure waves to the affected area, stimulating cellular metabolism, increasing blood circulation, and enhancing the body’s natural healing mechanisms.
By promoting these physiological responses, ESWT can potentially speed up healing musculoskeletal injuries, such as tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, and other soft tissue injuries, with just a few sessions. Additionally, ESWT therapy may reduce inflammation and pain, allowing patients to resume their normal activities more quickly.
Will ESWT therapy improve blood circulation?
Yes, ESWT therapy has been shown to improve blood circulation by delivering acoustic pressure waves to the targeted area. These pressure waves stimulate cellular metabolism, enhance the formation of new blood vessels (a process called angiogenesis), and increase blood flow to the treated area.
Improved blood circulation is beneficial for various reasons. It helps deliver oxygen and nutrients to the tis
Can extracorporeal pulse activation technology treat chronic pain?
Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) is a non-invasive treatment option that has been explored for various musculoskeletal conditions, including chronic musculoskeletal pain. ESWT delivers acoustic pressure waves to the affected area, stimulating healing processes and improving blood circulation. The result is often significant pain reduction and a shorter healing process. In some cases, patients report immediate pain relief, while others will experience reduced discomfort after a few sessions.
While ESWT has shown promise in treating certain types of chronic pain, its effectiveness may vary depending on the underlying cause of the pain and individual patient factors. Shockwave therapy often works best when combined with other treatments or therapies.
