Shockwave therapy is the gold-standard treatment for chronic tendon injuries, and alongside a progressive exercise plan, can significantly speed recovery, promote healing and reduce pain.
How it Works
Shockwave Therapy is a non-surgical, non-evasive treatment manually applied by the practitioner to the injury site. It is administered within the individuals pain tolerance level to:
- Increase blood flow to the local area
- Stimulate cell proliferation and collagen production
- Enhance healing rate
- Decrease pain levels
Is Shockwave therapy safe
Yes, extremely – when performed by qualified practitioners. Its use is supported by the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) and has very few contraindications that will be discussed at your initial consultation.
