Shockwave Therapy
We offer Shockwave Therapy to relieve tendon pain and speed healing. Noninvasive sessions target the root cause of discomfort, reduce downtime, and pair seamlessly with exercise and manual therapy to restore movement for work, sport, and life.
Restore Pain-Free Movement With Our Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave Therapy is a noninvasive treatment that uses acoustic waves to stimulate healing in stubborn tendons and soft tissues. The handheld device sends pulses through conductive gel, targeting areas to reduce pain, improve circulation, and prompt the body’s repair process.
Acoustic pulses create micro‑stimulation that increases local blood flow, breaks up calcifications, and modulates pain by influencing nerve receptors. Cells termed fibroblasts become active, collagen remodeling begins, and inflammation settles, allowing tissues to regain strength and flexibility afterwards more comfortably.
Great for tendon pain such as plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinopathy, tennis or golfer’s elbow, rotator cuff issues, patellar tendinopathy, and calcific shoulder pain. Also helpful for chronic trigger points and overuse injuries that haven’t responded to rest, medication, or care.
Fast Pain Relief
Feel relief as shockwaves interrupt pain signals and relax tissues. Improved circulation and tissue remodeling help joints move freely, tasks and workouts become easier without relying on medications or injections.
Natural Tissue Repair
Acoustic pulses nudge cells into repair mode, encouraging collagen production and breaking down adhesions. Noninvasive care means no needles, no incisions, downtime, letting body rebuild resilience while you keep moving.
Quick Sessions
Most treatments take 10–15 minutes, fitted easily into a lunch break. Little to no recovery time is needed, so you can return to work, errands, and everyday activities quickly afterward.
Lasting Results
Combine sessions with exercises and hands-on care to address strength, mobility, and movement patterns. Shockwaves calm pain so you can train, build resilience, and lock in gains that last longer.

What Results Can You Expect From Shockwave Therapy?
Most people notice easing pain and better mobility within a few sessions, with steady progress across the treatment plan. Results build as tissues remodel, letting you walk, work, and exercise more comfortably while flare ups reduce and confidence grows daily.
Commonly treated regions include plantar fascia, Achilles tendon, patellar tendon, rotator cuff, tennis or golfer elbow, hamstring and gluteal tendons, shin splints, and calcific shoulder. Myofascial trigger points and chronic scar tissue in soft tissues also respond well to therapy.
After treatment, expect mild soreness for a day or two, similar to a strong workout. Keep moving gently, avoid high impact exercise that day, hydrate, and follow your exercises. Ice or heat can soothe, depending on comfort, and therapist guidance.
