Shockwave

Shockwave therapy, or extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT), is a treatment used by physiotherapists to promote healing in various musculoskeletal conditions. It involves applying high-energy acoustic waves to affected areas, stimulating tissue repair and regeneration. This therapy is effective for conditions such as plantar fasciitis, tendinopathy, and calcific shoulder tendinitis. By enhancing blood flow and breaking down calcific deposits, shockwave therapy can reduce pain and improve mobility, often leading to faster recovery times.
