Shockwave therapy can help reduce pain, accelerate healing, and enable you to return to your everyday activities, passions, and sports.
It’s a non-invasive treatment, provided by qualified professionals, that uses high-energy sound waves to stimulate the body’s natural healing response. Often used when other treatments haven’t worked to their fullest, shockwave therapy is particularly effective for chronic soft tissue injuries and tendon problems. It is very helpful for musculoskeletal injuries and pain.
Shockwave therapy is widely used by specially trained physiotherapists, podiatrists, or sports medicine physicians. The mechanical pulses increase blood flow, promote tissue regeneration, and reduce pain by desensitising nerve endings.
Shockwave therapy is suitable for most adults and typically forms part of a broader rehabilitation plan. Combined with exercise, education, and hands-on care, it can support recovery, reduce inflammation, and get you moving more comfortably.
Shockwave therapy can help with other injuries as well, Please reach out to our qualified team to see if this treatment is appropriate for you.
Pain can result from overuse, repetitive movements, poor biomechanics, or age-related degeneration. In some cases, tissue healing has stalled or become chronic. This is where shockwave therapy can be helpful – it can “reboot” the healing process in tissues that have become stuck in a cycle of pain and inflammation. Shockwave can help break the viscous pain cycle you have been experiencing.
Chronic pain may also be linked to postural strain, old injuries, or a combination of lifestyle factors like stress, activity level, or muscle imbalances. Shockwave therapy is one tool among many to help break this cycle and support long-term recovery.
Once a full assessment has been completed by a qualified professional to confirm shockwave therapy is appropriate, the treatment is delivered using a handheld device that targets the affected area.
