At Lake Mary Chiropractic, we’re thrilled to introduce a groundbreaking new service that’s set to transform the way we address chronic pain and musculoskeletal conditions: Shockwave Therapy.
This innovative treatment, also known as extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT), harnesses the power of focused shockwaves to stimulate healing in soft tissues such as tendons, ligaments, and muscles.
What is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave therapy utilizes focused shockwaves, also known as sound waves, to target areas of injury or chronic pain. Unlike invasive procedures, shockwave therapy is non-invasive and offers a safe, effective alternative for patients who haven’t found relief through traditional treatments like physical therapy or medication.
How Does it Work?
During a shockwave therapy session, focused shockwaves are applied directly to the injured area. These sound waves penetrate the skin and tissues, reaching deep into the affected area to stimulate a variety of healing mechanisms:
Promotes Blood Flow: One of the key benefits of shockwave therapy is its ability to increase blood flow to the injured area. This improved circulation helps deliver essential nutrients and oxygen to the tissues, while also facilitating the removal of waste products.
Stimulates Healing: Shockwave therapy has been shown to stimulate the growth of new tissue and blood vessels, accelerating the body’s natural healing process.
Breaks Down Scar Tissue: Scar tissue can impede mobility and exacerbate pain following an injury. Shockwave therapy helps break down scar tissue, improving flexibility and range of motion in affected areas.
Conditions Treated with Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy is effective for a variety of chronic conditions, including shoulder tendinitis and partial tears, plantar fasciitis, and Achilles tendonitis. Athletes suffering from tennis elbow or golfer’s elbow may benefit from shockwave therapy, along with anyone suffering from chronic spinal pain.
Is Shockwave Therapy Right for You?
While shockwave therapy is generally safe and well-tolerated, it may not be suitable for everyone. Some individuals may experience discomfort or swelling at the treatment site, and certain medical conditions may preclude its use. It’s essential to consult with one of our Lake Mary Chiropractic doctors to determine if shockwave therapy is the right option for you.
