What Is Shockwave Therapy, And How Does It Treat Pain?
Shockwave therapy, also known as Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT), is a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment that uses high-energy acoustic waves to offer an array of benefits. For example, it can stimulate the body's natural healing process by increasing blood circulation, breaking down scar tissue and calcifications, reducing inflammation, and promoting cellular repair. Many patients experience pain reduction and improved mobility after just a few sessions, making it a powerful alternative to surgery or long-term medication. -
Does Chiropractic Care Hurt?
Most patients experience little to no discomfort during treatment. In fact, many feel immediate relief following an adjustment or therapy session. -
When Should Shockwave Therapy Be Used?
Shockwave therapy is typically recommended for chronic pain or injuries that haven't improved with rest, physical therapy, or traditional chiropractic care. Common conditions include plantar fasciitis, tennis or golfer's elbow, shoulder tendinitis, Achilles tendinopathy, and chronic muscle tightness. Dr. Nadler will assess your condition to determine if you're a good candidate for focused shockwave therapy services. -
