Shockwave Therapy
Extracorpeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) is a non invasive treatment which delivers mechanical load via low energy sound waves or pressurised air to enhance the bodies normal physiologic healing responses.
A succession of audible low energy wave pulsations are applied directly to an affected tendon and accompanying soft tissues using an ESWT applicator and gel medium interface.
The treatment aims to stimulate blood vessel formation, thereby increasing blood flow and nutrient delivery to the affected area of the body and revitalising the healing process. Shockwave is recognised as a clinically safe and effective treatment.
Shockwave Is Effective For:
- Achilles tendinopathy
- Patella tendinopathy
- Plantar fasciitis (incl heel spurs)
- Proximal hamstring tendinopathy
- Greater trochanteric pain syndrome
- Rotator cuff tendinopathy (incl calcification)
- Tennis and golfers elbow
