Common Questions About Shockwave Therapy
What is shockwave therapy and how does it work?
Shockwave therapy uses acoustic waves delivered through the skin into affected tissues. It helps stimulate circulation, reduce inflammation, and encourage the body’s own repair processes.
Does the treatment hurt?
During a session you may feel some discomfort in the area being treated. We adjust the intensity so it remains within what you can tolerate. After the session some soreness may follow.
How many treatments are needed?
It depends on your condition, how long you’ve had it, and how your body responds. Often people need 3-6 sessions over a few weeks, but sometimes fewer.
Is everyone a candidate?
Not everyone. In some cases, such as certain medical conditions (for example problems with blood clotting or during pregnancy), shockwave may not be suitable. We always do a full assessment first.
When will I see results?
Some people notice changes after the first or second session. Most see more consistent improvement by the third or fourth treatment and over time when combined with other therapies.
