Effective Shockwave Therapy in Boca Raton
Noninvasive Shockwaves to Heal Faster & Feel Better
Soft tissue and joint pain can debilitate anyone, from those who sit at a desk for extended periods to those who run marathons—or do both. Finding relief is critical to your lifestyle. Shockwave therapy can help.
Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT), sometimes called Acoustic Wave Therapy (AWT), is a highly effective, state-of-the-art, conservative remedy for damage within the joints and tissues. Our Boca Raton chiropractic clinic provides shockwave therapy to many different kinds of patients, and we’ve seen the excellent results firsthand.
If you’re suffering from chronic pain, motion loss, stiffness, or any other musculoskeletal discomfort, let us perform a comprehensive exam to determine whether shockwave therapy can benefit you.
What is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave therapy is a non-surgical procedure used to heal chronic soft tissue conditions and musculoskeletal disorders; it has been proven effective and offered to patients for nearly 15 years.
The therapy can help those with sports injuries or overuse injuries and aid in healing for those undergoing chiropractic care for various complaints.
How Does Shockwave Therapy Work?
ESWT employs a series of high-energy acoustic waves delivered to the patient’s skin via a transducer with a topical gel as a medium. The pulses of energy delivered to the injured area activate circulation, break down scar tissue, and promote new cell growth. Each session lasts between five and 15 minutes, depending on the patient and their condition.
This new technology for pain management is entirely safe and generally painless and does not necessitate anesthesia or pain medications. Shockwave therapy offers dynamic chronic pain relief and better, faster, and more complete healing.
Common conditions shockwave therapy can treat include:
- Knee pain and knee injuries, including runner’s knee
- Ankle strain and sprains
- Plantar fasciitis
- Achilles tendonitis
- Muscle strains
- Ligament sprains
- Shin splints
- Wrist pain and carpal tunnel syndrome
- Hip pain
- IT band syndrome
- Sciatica
- Bursitis
- Elbow pain, including golfer's elbow and tennis elbow
- Shoulder pain, including rotator cuff injuries
- Neck pain
- Heel spurs
- Chronic pain
These conditions can impact the quality of your life, making exercise, work, and social engagements challenging. Whether this has been the case for years or has recently taken hold, you can get the care you need to live fully once again.
The Science Behind Shock Wave Therapy
Are There Side Effects of Shockwave Therapy?
Patients may experience temporary swelling and tenderness at the treatment site due to the body’s innate inflammatory response that increases blood flow. This is the body’s healthy healing mechanism and should not be suppressed with anti-inflammatory drugs.
These side effects are typically very minimal, if felt at all, and in numerous cases, patients report significant pain relief after just one treatment session.
If you’re currently relying on pain medication to get you through the day or believe surgery is your only option, let’s connect. It’s time to take a gentler, more effective approach to your well-being.
What are you waiting for? Shockwave treatment is one of the best pain relief therapies for fast, organic results. Get back to the active life you enjoy, starting now.
How Long Until I See Results from Shockwave Therapy?
Unfortunately, there’s no way to say how many sessions you’ll need until we see you for a visit. After your initial consultation and exam, we will be able to advise you on the approximate amount of necessary sessions.
You’re unique, and so is your injury and how your body responds to it. Some conditions require only a couple of treatments, while others need five or six.
