What is Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy ?
Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy is a safe, non-invasive treatment that uses targeted acoustic sound waves to activate the body’s natural healing process. These high-energy pulses penetrate deep into muscles, tendons, and other soft tissues, stimulating increased blood circulation, breaking down damaged tissue, and accelerating cellular regeneration. As a result, pain is reduced, movement improves, and the body is able to repair itself more efficiently without the need for surgery or medication.
How Shockwave Therapy Works
Sockwave Therapy uses compressed air to generate kinetic energy inside a handheld applicator. This energy is transferred through the applicator tip into the affected tissue.
When these acoustic waves reach the injured area, they:
-
Increase blood circulation
-
Break down scar tissue and calcifications
-
Stimulate cell regeneration
-
Promote repair of bones, tendons, and soft tissues
-
Trigger the body’s natural healing response
This process allows damaged tissues to regenerate more effectively and helps relieve long-standing pain
