Shockwave Therapy is a clinically proven treatment for soft tissue injuries. A shockwave is defined as a sound wave that passes through the body and is not an electrical pulse. Treatment initiates a proflammatory response in the tissue where the shockwaves have been applied.
The body responds by increasing the bllod circulation and metabolism in the impact area which in turn accelerates the body’s own healing processes. The shockwave will also break down injured tissue and any calcifications.
Its main assets are fast pain relief and mobility restoration. Together with being a non-surgical therapy with no need for painkillers makes it an ideal therapy to speed up recovery and cure various conditions causing acute or chronic pain.
