What is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave therapy, or extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT), is a non-invasive medical treatment that employs high-energy sound waves to encourage healing and alleviate pain in different musculoskeletal illnesses.

Throughout the treatment, a specialized equipment administers regulated shockwaves to the affected region of the body. These shockwaves traverse through the skin and underlying tissues, creating a mechanical force that boosts tissue regeneration, enhances blood circulation, and reduces inflammation.

THE PROCESS

How Shock Wave Therapy Works

ESWT uses low-energy acoustic waves to treat various musculoskeletal conditions. The approach involves applying impulses of energy from a wand-like device directly to the affected body area. The high-frequency acoustic waves help to stimulate the body’s natural healing mechanisms, leading to a speedy recovery. With shock wave therapy, no surgery or anesthesia is required, and the treatment has minimal side effects, making it ideal for various patients.

Treat

Shock Wave Therapy works through a process known as mechanotransduction.

Restore

During this process, the acoustic waves created through ESWT cause mechanical stress on the cells’ membranes, leading to a cascade of biological responses that works to restore tissue function.

Regenerate

This encourages the body to produce new cells and heal the area of concern. The controlled micro-traumas created by Shock Wave Therapy plays a crucial role in tissue regeneration.
