Shockwave Therapy
Myrtle Beach
What is Radial Pressure Wave Therapy (AKA Shockwave Therapy)?
It is the delivery of high energy acoustic waves into the affected tissues and surrounding areas for treating certain musculoskeletal disorders. It is clinically proven that pressure waves, when applied to injured tissues can reduce pain and stimulate healing. Shockwave therapy increases localized bloodflow and activates connective tissues to help reduce your pain and begin the healing process.
What Does the Shockwave Therapy Feel Like?
Depending on the area being treated, you may feel mild to moderate pressure and it may be mildly uncomfortable but not painful.
How Long are the Treatments?
Treatment time is typically only 5-10 minutes per treatment site.
When Can I Expect to Feel Better?
The beneficial effects of Shockwave Therapy on pain and mobility are often experienced from the very first treatment session and the long-term healing benefits continue for months after your last treatment. Conditions can resolve in as few as six treatments.
