Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave therapy – also known as extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) and acoustic wave therapy (AWT) among other names – uses acoustic waves to transmit high peak pressure waves to promote and accelerate healing for subacute and chronic conditions.

• Remodel fibrotic tissue, release trigger points
• Reverse chronic inflammation
• Increase nitric oxide (NO)
• Activate stem cells and growth factors
• Reduce pain faster
• Improve range of motion
• Increase blood flow, microcirculation
• Stimulate tissue remodeling, neovascularization

Shock wave technology is a research-backed treatment solution that utilizes high-energy acoustic waves to send pulses to afflicted musculoskeletal tissue. The acoustic waves exert a mechanical force on the tissue to trigger the biological effects at a cellular level. Shockwave therapy helps to trigger and improve the body’s healing capabilities by increasing stem cell activity and blood circulation, which stimulates the regeneration of damaged tissue.
