What is Shockwave Therapy And Its Benefits?

Khairunnisa Hemani • November 2, 2023

Throughout our lives, we all encounter aches and pains. However, when pain becomes chronic, it can severely impact our quality of life. At Delta Physiotherapy & Rehab, we offer a range of services designed to alleviate discomfort and improve your overall wellbeing. One such treatment is shockwave therapy. This innovative approach has proven to be a highly effective solution for chronic pain.



Understanding Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that involves delivering sound waves to injured tissues to stimulate healing. It's commonly used for chronic conditions that haven't responded to more traditional forms of treatment.


How Shockwave Therapy Works

Shockwave therapy works by sending high-energy waves into your body. These waves stimulate the body's natural healing process by increasing blood flow to the affected area, reducing inflammation, and promoting the regeneration of damaged tissues.


Conditions Treated by Shockwave Therapy

This therapy is versatile and can treat a variety of conditions, including plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, shoulder tendinitis, and more. It's also effective in treating musculoskeletal disorders and for pain relief in areas where major connective tissues attach to bones.


Benefits of Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave therapy offers several benefits. It's a non-surgical, non-invasive treatment, making it a safe alternative to more invasive procedures. It's also a quick procedure, usually taking no more than 10-15 minutes. The therapy provides immediate relief from pain, and most patients experience noticeable improvement after just a few sessions.


At Delta Physiotherapy & Rehab, we believe in providing personalized care. Our team of professionals will work with you to develop a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs. With over a decade of experience, we have the skills and knowledge to provide the highest standard of care.
