STIMULATE HEALING, REDUCE PAIN AND IMPROVE NEUROMUSCULOSKELETAL FUNCTION
Shockwave Therapy (Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy, ESWT) is a non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic pressure waves to stimulate healing, reduce pain, and improve neuromusculoskeletal function. Valued for its ability to enhance tissue regeneration and modulate pain pathways without surgery or pharmaceuticals.
-
Neurological recovery
-
Chronic inflammatory or ischemic conditions: patients with persistent hypoxia or poor healing
-
Neurodegenerative patients
-
Complex chronic illness
HOW IT WORKS
-
Acoustic Energy Transmission: High-energy sound waves are delivered into tissues through a handheld applicator.
-
Cellular & Tissue Effects:
-
Increases local blood flow and microcirculation
-
Stimulates fibroblast activity and collagen synthesis
-
Promotes angiogenesis (new blood vessel growth)
-
Breaks down calcifications and scar tissue
-
Modulates nociceptor activity → reduces pain signaling
-
Influences neuroplasticity via mechanical stimulation of peripheral nerves
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Established musculoskeletal uses:
-
Chronic tendinopathies (Achilles, patellar, rotator cuff, lateral epicondylitis)
-
Plantar fasciitis and heel spurs
-
Myofascial pain syndromes and trigger points
-
Calcific tendinitis
Functional neurology and emerging uses:
-
Peripheral neuropathy – improved nerve regeneration and pain reduction
-
Spasticity management – in post-stroke and cerebral palsy patients, with reductions in muscle tone
-
Chronic pain syndromes – including CRPS and fibromyalgia
-
Parkinson’s disease and neurorehabilitation – studied for motor function and rigidity
-
Post-concussion and TBI rehabilitation – potential role in promoting neurovascular recovery
