Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave therapy is a new technique used for treatment of conditions such as tennis elbow, jumper's knee, calcification of shoulder tendons (shoulder pain) and Achilles tenton pain. Conditions which are otherwise difficult to treat with conventional physiotherapy.

What happens during shockwave therapy treatment?

During Shockwave therapy, a high-intensity sound wave interacts with the tissues of the body. This leads to a cascade of beneficial effects such as neovascularisation ingrowth, reversal of chronic inflammation, stimulation of collagen and dissolution of calcium build-up.

Benefits of shockwave therapy treatment:
