* Foot, heel, and ankle pain
* Knee discomfort
What Kinds of Conditions Can Be Treated Using Shockwaves?
Is shockwave therapy the same as laser therapyIs the therapy using shockwaves effective?
Advantages of pressure wave and shockwave therapy
* None of the anesthetics
In order for the Pressure Wave technology to be effective, it must speed up the natural healing process that occurs within the body. This is accomplished by revving up the metabolism and improving blood circulation in order to regenerate damaged tissue, which is ultimately responsible for the healing of bone and connective tissue. Pressure Wave has a demonstrated rate of effectiveness and has the potential to be more successful than other treatment options, such as surgery or medicines, without the associated hazards.
Pressure Wave technology has the potential to effectively treat a wide variety of diseases, including but not limited to knee pain, heel pain, foot pain, ankle pain, Achilles, plantar fasciitis, back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, elbow pain, wrist pain, and hand pain. In addition to that, it can be utilized for trigger point therapy, the treatment of sports injuries and scar tissue, the acceleration of bone mending, and even more!
There is a requirement for little to no recovery time at all.
The following are some of the painful conditions that can be effectively treated with the application of pressure wave technology:
What kinds of conditions can be managed with shockwave therapy?
Is Shockwave Therapy the Best Treatment Option for You?
* aching in the shoulders
Pressure Wave therapy is a very efficient technique of treatment that involves the application of high-energy sound waves to the parts of the body that are experiencing discomfort. The Food and Drug Administration has given its stamp of approval to this method as one of the most cutting-edge, highly effective, and non-invasive therapies for pain. According to clinical research, this method has a success rate of 91%. Patients who have been treated have reported either a significant improvement in their pain or complete relief from their symptoms.
* There is no requirement for anesthesia.
According to clinical research, this represents a success rate of 91%.
* Muscle pain
* It is economical to do so.
* Ache in the elbow
What exactly does "pressure wave treatment" entail?
* It does not intrude in any way.
* There is no scarring.
* It is more expedient and economical.
Most patients require three sessions of shockwave therapy, each a week apart, before significant pain relief is noticed. Some conditions may require five treatments. Your specialist will be able to discuss your particular case and expectations with you.
Shockwaves stimulate fibroblasts that are cells responsible for healing of connective tissue such as tendons. Diminishes pain by two mechanisms. Hyperstimulation anesthesia – local nerve endings are overwhelmed with so many stimuli that their activity diminishes resulting in short-term reduction in pain.
Shockwave treatment lasts approximately 5-10 minutes. During each session approximately 2500-3000 shocks will be administered to the injured tissue. During your shockwave session your physiotherapist will adjust the machine intensity to ensure the injured tissue receives the required energy/dosage.
