Focused Shockwave Therapy, also called Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT), is a non-invasive treatment that uses electromagnetic waves to help the body heal naturally.

How Does It Work

The treatment sends electromagnetic waves into injured painful tissue, stimulating the body’s natural healing response by increasing circulation, encouraging new blood vessel growth, and activating stem cells involved in tissue repair.

Potential Benefits

  • Reduce pain and inflammation
  • Improve mobility and function
  • Helps stimulate healing in muscles, tendons, and joints
  • Heal stress fractures
  • Encourages blood flow and tissue regeneration with growth factor activation
  • Non-surgical with little downtime
  • Non-invasive

What Conditions Can It Help?

Focused Shockwave Therapy is commonly used for tendon injuries, plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendon pain, shoulder pain, muscle tightness, chronic pain conditions, osteoarthritis, and slow-healing injuries.

What to Expect During Treatment

Most treatments last about 10–15 minutes. You will feel tapping, pressure and discomfort. Most patients notice improvement after 3–4 treatments, while others improve gradually over several weeks. We recommend 4–6 weekly treatments for full efficacy.

Is It Safe?

Research has shown Focused Shockwave Therapy to be safe when performed by trained professionals. It is non-invasive and has minimal side effects.
