Radial Shockwave Therapy

What is Radial Shockwave Therapy?

Also known as extracorporeal shock wave therapy, this method of therapy involves a very short and intense pulse of energy that exceeds the speed of sound. These non-invasive treatments accelerate the body’s natural healing process in 2 distinct ways:

1. By stimulating metabolic activity

2. Enhancing blood circulation which contributes to the regeneration of damaged muscles, tendons, ligaments, bones, and joints.    

Benefits of Shockwave Therapy

Patients who have received Radial Shockwave Therapy often describe the sensation as a deep ache or sharp sensation that subsides quickly. Most patients feel immediate relief from pain. Others however experience noticeable results within a 72 hour period.  Treatments take roughly 30 minutes and usually require 3 to 5 sessions in order to maximize results.
