Shockwave therapy
What is shockwave therapy?
Shockwaves are acoustic waves applied to the painful area that stimulate the tissue’s regeneration processes.
There is good evidence for their use in plantar fasciitis, chronic tendinopathies such as tennis elbow or Achilles tendinopathy, and shoulder calcifications.
We always combine them with therapeutic exercise so that the results last.
This treatment is for you if…
- You have plantar fasciitis.
- You have a long-standing tendinopathy.
- You have been diagnosed with a shoulder calcification.
- You prefer a needle-free treatment.
We assess whether shockwave therapy is suitable in your case.
