Shockwave Therapy is a relatively new form of treatment in the fields of orthopaedic and rehabilitation medicine.

The primary effect of a shockwave is a direct mechanical force as the wave’s energy passes through tissue. These waves cause a controlled impact on the tissue being treated. This results in a biological reaction within the cells of that tissue (inflammation), which triggers the Healthy Body to accelerate its natural healing response and increase blood flow to the injured site.
