How Reform Clinic's shockwave therapy can help relieve chronic pain

April 19, 2023


What is Shockwave Therapy?

 

Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that helps alleviate chronic pain by applying high intensity sound waves to targeted areas. The technique has been used for many years to treat various muscle and joint injuries such as tendinitis, bursitis, and even lower back pain. It works by stimulating the growth of new blood vessels within the area, which can increase the circulation of oxygen and nutrients, helping to reduce inflammation and promote healing.

 


How Does Shockwave Therapy Work?

During a session, the shockwaves are delivered through a hand-held device placed on the patient’s skin near the site of their injury or pain. These pulses travel through tissues until they reach the affected area and stimulate both nerve cells and collagen fibers, encouraging improved blood flow in order to reduce inflammation and improve mobility at the same time.


The process is relatively quick with patients usually receiving 3-5 short treatments over a period of weeks. This can make it suitable for those who want fast relief from their symptoms without having to go through lengthy treatments such as surgery or medication.


Benefits of Shockwave Therapy

One of the main benefits of shockwave therapy is that it offers long term relief from chronic pain without any side effects associated with other invasive treatments. This means you don’t have to worry about taking additional medications or risking infection or further injury during certain surgical procedures. The other major advantage is that it is also an effective way of treating stubborn cases of tendinitis or bursitis which may not have responded well to standard physical therapies or medications prescribed by doctors.


The results are often visible quickly too with some patients noticing an improvement within 48 hours after treatment although this varies depending on individual conditions and circumstances. Shockwave therapy has also been found to be successful in treating persistent musculoskeletal injuries such as plantar fasciitis, calcific tendonitis and epicondylopathy (tennis elbow).
