What Is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave therapy, also known as extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT), is a non-invasive treatment that uses high-energy sound waves to stimulate the body’s healing response. Despite its name, it doesn’t involve electrical shocks—instead, it delivers gentle acoustic energy to the injured area.

This energy boosts blood flow, reduces inflammation, and triggers the release of growth factors, helping soft tissues, tendons, and ligaments heal faster. It’s an ideal treatment for both acute and chronic injuries.

By combining shockwave therapy with other regenerative techniques like PRP and stem cell therapy, we can maximize healing and recovery.

How Does Shockwave Therapy Work?

Shockwave Therapy works by using a handheld device to deliver focused sound waves directly to the injured area.

These sound waves help break down scar tissue, improving flexibility and reducing pain caused by tissue buildup. The therapy also boosts circulation, stimulating blood flow to promote natural tissue repair, while reducing inflammation to ease swelling and restore mobility.

This quick and safe procedure is performed in-office by our skilled team, with sessions typically lasting just 15–30 minutes.
