Shockwave Therapy In Bibra Lake and Spearwood
Shockwave Therapy is another modality our doctors may include in your care plan. A chronic pain solution, it addresses lingering injuries by triggering an increase in metabolism and blood circulation in the affected area. Once activated, your body’s self-healing mechanisms take control and speed recovery.
We use the highly regarded Chattanooga® shockwave machine at our practice. It produces a low-energy acoustical pulse using sound waves to generate fresh blood flow to the damaged tissue and promote healing. The increase in blood flow helps remove old inflammation and stimulates the tendons, ligaments, and cartilage to increase the rate of healing.
What to Expect
The machine is placed directly on the injury using a gel medium for better transmission. The device makes a clicking sound as it works; the therapy may produce some mild discomfort. Most patients tolerate it well; the intensity can be reduced to make your care more comfortable. Side effects, if any, are minimal and disappear quickly.
