What Shockwave Does

Shockwave therapy uses precise acoustic waves to restart your body's natural healing process. By improving circulation, breaking up scar tissue, and stimulating cell regeneration, it helps tissues that have stopped healing finally move forward again.

In short, it helps you move better - and hurt less.

Stimulates Repair

Encourages your body to produce new, healthy tissue.

Boosts Circulation

Increases blood flow to stubborn, slow-healing areas.

Breaks Up Scar Tissue

Restores natural glide between muscles and tendons.

Reduces Pain

Calms chronic irritation and inflammation.

Improves Mobility

Restores range of motion so you can return to normal activity.

Improves Tissue Quality

Enhances collagen remodeling and long-term durability of tissues.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does focused shockwave therapy hurt?

During treatment, we communicate with you the entire time and keep intensity below a 5-6 out of 10. Most people describe the sensation as a deep, dull ache - similar to a tooth ache - but it quickly feels rewarding by the end of each pulse sequence.

How many sessions will I need?

Most people notice improvement after one or two sessions. For lasting results, a typical plan includes 5-12 treatments depending on how long the tissue has been present and how your body responds. Chronic cases generally require more consistency early on.

Will I be sore after treatment?

Yes, mild soreness for the first 24-48 hours is normal - especially after your first few visits. It's a positive sign that the tissue is responding. By your third or fourth treatment, most people feel less post-session soreness and leave feeling much better overall.

Can I exercise after treatment?

Absolutely! We usually recommend limiting weights to about 70% of your normal load for 24 hours. Gentle movement actually supports healing, but avoid heavy eccentric loading or long endurance sessions the same day.

Can I use ice or take anti-inflammatories afterward?

We generally avoid ice or NSAIDs immediately after treatment. Both can reduce the natural inflammatory cascade that shockwave intentionally stimulates. If you're uncomfortable, gentle movement or light compression is best.

Is focused shockwave therapy covered by insurance?

Currently, focused shockwave therapy is a cash-based service. Insurance carriers classify it as an advanced regenerative modality not yet under typical coverage. We keep pricing transparent and offer discounted packages for committed care plans.
