How Shockwave Therapy Works

Shockwave Therapy specifically accelerates the healing process in the body by stimulating the metabolism and enhancing blood circulation to regenerate damaged tissue. Strong energy pulses are applied to the affected area. These pulses occur for short periods of time, creating micro-cavitation bubbles that expand and burst. The force created by these bubbles penetrates tissue and stimulates cells in the body that are responsible for bone and connective tissue healing. Evidently, shockwave therapy is most effective in cases where the human body has not been able to heal itself on its own.

Additionally, the beneficial effects of shockwave therapy are often experienced after only a few treatments. The therapy eliminates pain and restores full mobility, thus improving your quality of life.

This treatment modality is offered by both our Chiropractors and our Physiotherapists. Click the link to book with either of them today!

Common FAQs About Shockwave Therapy

Is Shockwave Therapy painful?

Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the treatment. Some may feel slight discomfort during the procedure, but this typically subsides pretty quickly. Our practitioners work to ensure that you’re as comfortable as possible throughout the session.

How many treatments will I need?

The number of treatments required varies depending on the condition and its severity. Typically, you may require 3–5 sessions, over a period of 3 weeks. Your Chiropractor will develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.

Are there any side effects?

There are virtually no side effects to Shockwave Therapy. Some patients may experience mild side effects such as redness, swelling, or bruising in the treated area. However, this is temporary and resolves within a few days.

How long does each treatment session last?

Each Shockwave Therapy session usually lasts ~15 minutes, depending on the area being treated and the severity of the condition. We’ll brief you on this at your consultation or during your first therapy session.

When can I expect to see results?

Again, this depends on the condition. For some acute conditions, patients experience relief after just one or two sessions, but the full benefits are typically felt after completing the entire treatment plan. For chronic conditions, improvement continues over the weeks following the therapy. We’ll evaluate your progress over time, and tweak our treatment plan accordingly to make sure you can get moving quickly.

Can Shockwave Therapy be combined with other treatments?

Absolutely! Shockwave Therapy can be part of a comprehensive treatment plan that includes Chiropractic adjustments, Physiotherapy or other wellness services. There’s no quick-fix approach with us. We want you to walk out of our clinic pain-free and ready to take on more physical activities that were otherwise challenging for you before. Combining therapies can enhance overall results and promote quicker recovery.

Is Shockwave Therapy covered by insurance?

Coverage for Shockwave Therapy varies by insurance provider. When completed by a Chiropractor or Physiotherapist, these treatments can be billed under that profession. Our facility offers direct insurance billing, and we can assist you in determining if your insurance plan covers this treatment.
