Shockwave Therapy
Focused pulse to regenerate tissue in tendon attachments and heal chronic injuries!
Advance your Healing with Shockwave
Shockwave therapy also known as Extracorporeal Shockwave Treatment (ESWT) is a tested and successful approach to tendinopathies and chronic injuries. The pulsed frequency is sent into the tissues at the focal point of injury. This pulse causes the body to essentially reestablish the healing process in the area of focus.
This researched method has shown to get incredible results in areas of the body that have been injured in the past or continuously reinjured because of the way the body has compensated with scar tissue and chronic inflammation. Shockwave can increase collagen production in the joint, reduce muscle tension, eliminate pain, and improve circulation. Whether you have new injury to joint/tissue or you have struggled with the same pain for years we can help you see relief and get past this!

Shockwave is a Highly Effective, Non-Surgical Therapy Option
Shockwave has been researched since the early 80s. While many adaptations have been created, we waited until we found the perfect technology for our patients. This treatment has already seen incredible results.
Scientific studies and publications which have used the highly accurate piezo shockwave technology have confirmed the effectiveness of focused shockwaves to treat various common musculoskeletal conditions, as well as for the diagnosis and treatment of trigger points. ESWT is one of the few medical technologies which can treat chronic pain syndromes of the musculoskeletal system effectively by jump-starting self-healing processes.
The patient is treated in a comfortable position while the areas of highest sensitivity are marked. The shockwave wand is used to focus a pulse specific to the patient and mechanism of injury directly to the marked areas. Specialized treatment is provided to each patient by beginning with a thorough evaluation, history, and imaging to support the diagnosis and recommended strategy. Our therapists are trained to work with each patient and their individual needs. All of our unique treatment plans are designed to provide objective checkpoints to evaluate progress.
Utilizing Shockwave in conjunction with chiropractic care and the other incredible technologies in our office, we succeed at getting our patients better results than they came to us for. We believe the body has the power to heal itself in the right environment and we help you cultivate that environment through alignment, reducing inflammation, and rehabilitation. As your wellness advisors, we will address your issues from a whole body perspective including nutritional and supplemental recommendations.
