ShockWave Therapy
Get Relief From Chronic Pain
WITHOUT Surgery
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT)
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy or E.S.W.T treats a variety of conditions using shock waves outside the body. The treatment is non-surgical and non-invasive. This quick, effective procedure harnesses intense but very short acoustic energy waves to heal many chronic painful orthopedic conditions.
Knee Pain
Patellar tendinitis / Runner’s knee / Jumper’s knee: This is a condition in which the patellar tendon is inflamed (this tendon connects the kneecap to the shinbone). ESWT may be used in conjunction with conservative treatments (training exercises) in patients with runner’s knee.
Shoulder Pain
As few as 3 or 4 shockwave treatments can help reduce your pain, improve your ability to reach overhead, and avoid surgery (thereby dodging any risk of post-op complications) . Shockwave has also been shown to help reduce the size of the calcium deposits and, in 54-86% of cases, completely dissolve these calcifications.
Erectile Dysfunction
Most men suffering from erectile dysfunction may have vascular problems affecting the vessels that supply blood to the cavernous bodies of the penis, resulting in a decreased ability to develop and maintain an erection. ​.
Shockwave Therapy has been demonstrated to be one of the treatments available to help ED of this type.
Planter Fasciitis
The effects of ESWT are best documented in areas of changes in tissue density, such as those where a tendon attaches to a bone (enthesiopathies) and where a bone attaches to a ligament (desmopathies). For this reason, it is very effective for painful connective tissue in the heels. Additionally, ESWT gives new hope by relieving pain, eliminating the risk factors associated with surgery and allowing people to resume their normal lives.
Achilles Tendonitis
Radial shockwave therapy produces significant improvement of symptoms and activity level and is therefore considered as a viable non-surgical treatment option for Achilles tendinopathy.
Tennis Elbow
The effects of ESWT are best documented in areas of changes in tissue density, such as those where a tendon attaches to a bone (enthesiopathies) and where a bone attaches to a ligament (desmopathies). For this reason, it is very effective for painful connective tissue in the elbow. Additionally, ESWT gives new hope by relieving pain, eliminating the risk factors associated with surgery and allowing people to resume their normal lives.
Cellulite
Acoustic Wave Therapy (ESWT) represents a unique approach to cellulite treatment. ESWT uses pressure waves that impact both of the major causes of cellulite: fibrous septae and protrusion of fat into the lower dermis. The acoustic wave therapy produces a pressure wave that passes through skin and fat to impact the fibrous septae. The pressure breaks up the collagen of the septae and releases the skin, allowing a smoother surface.
Ankle Pain
Radial shockwave therapy produces significant improvement of symptoms and activity level and is therefore considered as a viable non-surgical treatment option.
