Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave Therapy is a breakthrough in pain management and treatment of chronic musculoskeletal pain. Strong energy pulses are applied to the affected area. These pulses generate micro-cavitations in the affected area stimulating the cells in the body that are responsible for tissue healing. Shockwave therapy is most effective in injuries that are unable to heal on their own.
Indications For Treatment:
Rotator Cuff Tendonitis and Calcific Tendonitis
Shoulder Blade Pain: Chronic Trigger Points
Forefoot pain or Metarsalgia
Achilles Tendinopathy
Patellar Tendonitis and Osgood Shlatters
Calf muscle shortening and injuries
Shin Splints or Tibial Stress Syndrome
Plantar Fasciitis with and without heel spurs
