We are excited to have recently started using Shockwave Therapy on many patients with excellent results. Extracorporeal (outside the body) ShockWave therapy, uses high- energy sound waves targeted over a specific site over a short period of time, which helps stimulate certain components involved in the healing process. Research has shown that it can reduce pain, swelling and increase function in several chronic tendon disorders including tennis elbow, patella tendinopathy, Achilles tendinopathy, gluteal tendinopathy, rotator cuff tendinopathy of the shoulder and plantar fasciitis. A buildup of specific elements in the muscles or tendons creates local, painful conditions that are addressed with ShockWave therapy. Plastic surgeons are also requesting ShockWave therapy for post-surgical healing and scar treatments. In the UK, the National Institute of Health endorses the use of ShockWave therapy to treat several of the conditions listed above due to the significant effects that it can have. A cluster of three to five sessions takes place across one to two weeks, followed by a gap of a few weeks for tissue regeneration. The picture of recovery is an accelerated progression from pain and mobility restoration. S E R V I C E S P O T L I G H T : SHOCKWAVE THERAPY
