Shockwave Therapy
What is Shock Wave Therapy?
Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that utilizes acoustic sound waves to promote healing and alleviate pain. By delivering high-energy waves, this therapy stimulates circulation, enhances cellular repair processes, and breaks down scar tissue and calcifications. The result is improved tissue regeneration and reduced inflammation, leading to recovery and pain relief. It is often used for conditions like tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, and chronic muscle pain. Shockwave therapy is an innovative, noninvasive healing modality valued for its effectiveness and minimal downtime.
Effectiveness has been demonstrated in many clinical studies with a greater than 90% success rate.
What is Focused Shockwave Therapy?
Focused Shockwave Therapy is a revolutionary treatment in the realm of pain management and recovery. It is an innovative and effective treatment for many conditions causing you pain. The technology utilizes the power of acoustic sound waves, to carry high-energy sound waves to the tissue, triggering a natural, biological effect that results in tissue regeneration. By targeting a specific area, Focused Shockwave promotes faster healing and long-term results.
Who Can Benefit?
This therapy can provide significant benefits to individuals suffering from musculoskeletal issues, chronic pain, or injuries. Athletes or active individuals with recurring injuries, such as tendonitis or plantar fasciitis, may find substantial relief, as the therapy accelerates tissue repair and regeneration. Similarly, those with chronic conditions like calcific shoulder tendinitis or chronic low back pain experience reduced symptoms and improved mobility. By enhancing blood flow and regeneration of tissue, Focused Shockwave Therapy can also benefit patients seeking alternatives to surgery or prolonged medication use, offering a promising option for restoring function and alleviating discomfort.
Focused Shockwave at Body Works
Many patients have expressed noticeable relief and improved mobility after their first treatment. The number of Focused Shockwave therapy sessions required to experience noticeable benefits can vary depending on the condition, severity, the area being treated, and the individual's response. Typically, patients need a minimum of 6 sessions, spaced a week apart, to achieve optimal results. Each session is about 10 minutes, targeting the affected area to stimulate healing and reduce pain. For some conditions, particularly chronic or severe ones, a longer course of treatment might be necessary, with periodic follow-ups to assess progress. At Body Works Chiropractic and Wellness Center, we will tailor the treatment plan to your specific needs, adjusting the frequency and duration based on how well your body responds and the improvements observed over time.
Recover from common conditions and get back to living pain-free.
What is Radial Shockwave Therapy?
Radial shockwave therapy is a noninvasive treatment method used to address various musculoskeletal conditions and promote healing. It involves the application of acoustic waves, or shockwaves, to the affected area. Unlike focused shockwave therapy, which delivers energy in a precise, focused manner to a specific point, radial shockwave therapy disperses the acoustic waves radially from a central point, affecting a broader area of tissue.
Who Can Benefit?
During the procedure, a device generates radial shockwaves that travel through the skin and underlying tissues, stimulating blood flow, collagen production, and tissue repair. This can help alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and improve mobility in conditions such as plantar fasciitis, tendinitis, and other chronic pain issues. Radial shockwave therapy is generally well-tolerated, with minimal downtime and a low risk of side effects, making it a popular choice for individuals seeking a noninvasive alternative to surgery or prolonged medication.
