Focused Shockwave Therapy
Focused Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic waves to stimulate healing in injured soft tissues, reduce chronic pain, and support long-term recovery.
It is commonly used alongside rehabilitation to help patients who are not improving with exercise or manual therapy alone.
What it helps with
Focused Shockwave Therapy may be used for persistent musculoskeletal conditions such as:
Chronic tendon pain
Overuse injuries
Plantar fasciitis
Tennis or golfer’s elbow
Shoulder pain (including rotator cuff irritation)
Hip or gluteal tendon pain
Knee tendon pain
TMJ (jaw) pain
How it works
What to expect
- Treatment sessions typically take 5–10 minutes
- You may feel a light tapping or pulsing sensation
- No anesthesia or downtime is required
- It is often combined with an active rehab program for best results
Who it is for
- This treatment may be appropriate if you:
- Have ongoing pain lasting more than 6 weeks
- Have not improved with standard physiotherapy alone
- Are dealing with a chronic tendon or soft tissue injury
- Want a non-invasive option to support healing
What results look like
Results vary depending on the condition, duration of symptoms, and overall rehab plan. Many patients experience gradual improvement in pain and function over several sessions.
