Shockwave Therapy

What is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave Therapy is a non invasive surgical solution that accelerates the recovery from injured tissue. Only 4-6 Quick Inquiry treatments on injured tendons are usually needed.

How does Shockwave Therapy work?

Radial Shockwave Therapy works by producing an acute inflammatory response at site of chronic injury. The body responds by increasing metabolic activity around the site of pain, therefore stimulating a healing process. Shockwave therapy also helps break down scar tissue and calcification.
