RADIAL SHOCKWAVE THERAPY
NON-INVASIVE SUPPORT FOR STUBBORN PAIN
Radial shockwave therapy uses high-energy sound waves to stimulate healing in chronic tendon, ligament, and muscle injuries that have not responded to other treatments.
SERVICE FOCUS
Plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinopathy, jumper's knee, tennis or golfer's elbow, calcific shoulder tendinitis, and chronic myofascial pain.
WHAT IT IS
A simple explanation of what shockwave therapy does and when it fits into care.
Radial shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment used for stubborn tendon, ligament, and muscle pain.
The treatment uses acoustic energy to create a focused mechanical stimulus in irritated tissue. That stimulus is intended to support circulation, tissue healing, and pain reduction over a series of sessions.
It does not require anesthesia or injections. It is often considered when pain has become chronic or has not improved with basic care alone.
Who It Helps
Common reasons someone may choose radial shockwave therapy.
PLANTAR FASCIITIS + HEEL PAIN
For stubborn heel pain, plantar fascia irritation, or heel spur-related symptoms that are limiting walking, training, or daily movement.
ACHILLES OR PATELLAR TENDINOPATHY
For tendon pain around the Achilles or knee that has become persistent or keeps returning with activity.
ELBOW + SHOULDER TENDON PAIN
For tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, calcific shoulder tendinitis, or other tendon-related irritation.
CHRONIC MYOFASCIAL PAIN
For long-standing muscle pain or overuse patterns that have not responded well to initial treatment alone.
what to expect
Treatment is straightforward, non-invasive, and typically used as part of a broader recovery plan.
IDENTIFY THE TISSUE
Your visit starts with a review of your symptoms, history, activity demands, and the area that has not improved as expected.
APPLY SHOCKWAVE
A handheld device applies acoustic pulses to the target area. Treatment is non-invasive and does not require anesthesia.
BUILD THE PLAN
Shockwave may be paired with mobility, strengthening, soft tissue care, or rehab exercises to support the tissue between visits.
