What is Shockwave Therapy

What is Physiotherapy

Shockwave treatment that utilizes high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate healing and alleviate pain. Our expert physio applies these waves to the targeted area using a handheld device. The shockwaves create micro-trauma within the tissue, triggering the body's natural healing response. This increased blood flow and cellular activity promote pain reduction, break down scar tissue, and regenerate damaged tissue.

What are the benefits of Shockwave Therapy?

What are the Benefits of Physiotherapy?

✓  Reduces pain

Shockwave therapy significantly decreases pain by disrupting pain signals and stimulating natural pain-relieving mechanisms in the body.

✓  Accelerates healing

The therapy increases blood flow to injured areas, promotes collagen production, and activates stem cells, speeding up tissue repair and regeneration.

✓  Treatment for Chronic Conditions

Effective for stubborn conditions like plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, and calcific shoulder tendinopathy that haven't responded to other conservative treatments.

✓  Non-invasive

As a non-surgical treatment, it eliminates risks associated with anesthesia, infection, and lengthy recovery periods common with surgical interventions.

✓  Lasting Results

Many patients experience substantial improvement after just a few sessions, with effects that can last for years rather than providing only temporary relief.
