Non-surgical Shockwave Therapy for Lingering Pain and Injuries

Get back to moving comfortably-- without injections, surgery, or long-recovery downtimes

Key Benefits:

Breaks up chronic tissue irritation

Stimulates healing and blood flow

Effective for stubborn pain that hasn’t responded to rest or PT

Quick sessions. No downtime.

The shockwave therapy offered at our clinic uses a combination of Radial Wave Therapy, or EPAT (extracorporeal pulse activated treatment), and Focus Wave Therapy, or LiESWT (low intensity extracorporeal shockwave therapy). Shockwave therapy is an advanced treatment that uses acoustic shockwaves to break up soft tissue calcifications, enhance collagen synthesis, release growth factors, and stimulate your body’s healing process to improve pain and help you stay active.

What to Expect

  • Initial visit: Evaluation + discussion of goals

  • Treatment: Typically 5–10 minutes per area

  • Schedule: Often 3–6 sessions depending on condition

  • Downtime: None—most people return to activity immediately

Some patients notice improvement after the first few sessions, while others experience gradual progress as tissue healing builds.
