Shock wave
therapy.
A modern, non-surgical treatment for injuries where tendons and ligaments meet bone, and for bone that is slow to heal.
High-energy sound waves, directed where it hurts.
A treatment used in physical therapy, orthopedics, urology, and cardiology. The shockwaves are abrupt, high amplitude pulses of mechanical energy, similar to soundwaves, generated by an electromagnetic coil.
ESWT can be used to treat a wide variety of musculoskeletal conditions, in particular those involving where major connective tissues attach to bone.
ESWT has also been proposed to aid in bone healing including stress fractures, avascular necrosis, slow healing bone (delayed unions), and non-healing bone (non-unions). There are numerous benefits of ESWT and it offers a non-surgical option for treatment of some conditions. It has no side effects, is easy to use, and is affordable and covered by some insurance companies.

A non-surgical option when other treatments haven't worked.
The main focus of patient treatment is centred on the integration of radial and focused shockwave therapy as part of the regenerative medicine healing pathway, to assist with recovery from injuries that have failed to respond to traditional treatments.
Radial and Focused Shockwave
Both forms of shockwave, chosen for the tissue and the depth of the problem being treated.
A Non-Surgical Option
For chronic tendinopathies and injuries that have not responded to traditional treatments.
Myofascial Pain
Used for myofascial pain syndromes, including trigger point therapy and fibromyalgia.
