Shockwave Therapy stimulates the body’s natural healing process in injured areas. Using high-energy sound wave pulses, this treatment stimulates the metabolism and enhances blood circulation to promote tissue healing and pain relief from injury.
Our chiropractors perform this non-surgical, non-invasive technique by applying gel to the treatment area, then releasing high-energy sound wave pulses through an applicator. The pressure from these shockwaves creates cavitation bubbles which then burst, resulting in a force that helps to break down calcific deposits embedded in damaged tissue. Translation? Faster healing, reduced inflammation, decreased pain in the affected area, and less swelling.
