Shock Wave Therapy

(Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy – ESWT)

Overcome Stubborn Chronic Pain with Advanced Shockwave Therapy

High-energy acoustic wave technology designed to jumpstart healing for chronic tendon injuries and persistent soft tissue conditions.

How It Works: Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) delivers high-energy acoustic pulses directly into injured or damaged tissues. These sound waves create micro-trauma that stimulates increased local blood circulation, accelerates cellular metabolism, and triggers the body’s natural healing response to break down scar tissue and stubborn calcium deposits.

Ideal Candidates: Shockwave therapy is exceptionally effective for chronic conditions that have not responded to traditional rest, stretching, or physical therapy alone:

•Plantar fasciitis & heel spurs
•Achilles tendinopathy
•Patellar tendonitis (jumper’s knee)
•Tennis & golfer’s elbow (epicondylitis)
•Chronic calcific tendinitis of the shoulder

What to Expect During Your Session: Treatments typically take about 10 to 15 minutes. You will feel rapid, rhythmic pulses against the target area. While some mild, temporary discomfort can occur as the acoustic waves target chronic tissue, intensity levels are fully adjustable for your comfort. There is zero downtime and patients often notice a reduction in pain with improved mobility within 3 to 5 sessions.

Pricing & Packages: Self-pay cash option (not covered by traditional health insurance). Tiered session packages available upon consultation.

Location Availability: Available at both our Plymouth (Long Pond Road) clinic and Redbrook clinic.
