What Is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave Therapy, also known as Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT), is a cutting-edge treatment that uses acoustic sound waves to stimulate healing in damaged tissues, muscles, tendons, and bones. These high energy pulses trigger the body’s natural repair processes promoting blood flow, breaking down scar tissue, and reducing pain and inflammation at the source.
