We use Focused Shockwave technology that emits high energy acoustic waves (the same type of waves we get from an airplane breaking the sound barrier). The depth and intensity of these powerful waves can be controlled to target an injured or diseased area. The technology has been used since the 1980's to effectively break down kidney stones. Now these shockwaves can be used in orthopaedic medicine to break down scar tissue and calcification in a damaged area, which in chronic cases the body is unable to repair itself. This deliberate targeted "assault" stimulates the body to generate new tissue leading to improved healing, better function and relief of pain.

Why is our shockwave therapy different?
We have invested in the latest medical technology and can offer both Focused (true) Shockwave and also Radial Shockwave. While radial shockwave therapy is the most common type of shockwave therapy used in treating musculoskeletal conditions, focused shockwave therapy is becoming the preferred treatment method for more acute cases that require more precision. It also penetrates much deeper than radial shockwave. Experts are now finding that a combination of both types of shockwave gets the fastest and most effective results of all.
What can be treated with Shockwave?
Packages of 3-6 sessions depending on your requirements may be purchased following discussion with your physiotherapist. If you would like to discuss this before you even come to the Practice please call and request a chat with one of our clinical staff who will be pleased to talk it through with you.
