About Shockwave Therapy

Radial shockwave therapy (RSWT) is a method for the treatment of superficial orthopedic disorders developed over the past 20 years. A projectile accelerated in the handpiece generates a mechanical pressure wave, which is transferred to the human body by an applicator head and which radiates out in the tissue.

The mechanical energy is absorbed by the tissue and decreases as the distance from the application site increases. The mechanical stress triggers reactions in the tissue that have a positive influence on a wide range of orthopedic and neurological conditions

The method is used by therapists all over the world with great success especially in chronic conditions such as Calcific tendinitis, Achilles and Patellar Tendinopathy, Plantar Fasciitis and more.
Please ask your therapist if Shockwave Therapy is right for you.

An additional $20 will be charged to each visit when Shockwave Therapy is applied.
