Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy has been growing in popularity
thanks to its ability to treat fractures and aid
injury management. Today, shockwave therapy is
used to treat different types of soft tissue
injuries and other long-term issues in the
tendons, ligaments, muscles and fascia.

How does Shockwave Work?
This treatment works by sending a short, intense
energy wave. This wave carries high amounts of
energy to injured area and Myoskeletal tissues
with chronic, sub-chronic and acute conditions.
The energy activates the bodys self-healing
abilities, which accelerates the healing process.

Effects of Shockwave Therapy
Phase one is the shocks direct effect.
Mechanical pressure produces an extracellular
cavitation, which then ionizes the molecules to
increase cell membrane permeability. Phase two
is the physical-chemical phase, during which
diffusible radicals interact with biomolecules.
The energy waves interfere with metabolism in the
cells to increase their activity, which promotes
healing. Phase three is the chemical phase. It
might come along with intracellular reactions and
molecular changes. A high temperature is
developed when cavitation occurs, leading to the
growth of radicals. Phase four the final phase,
involves the physiological reactions to the
previous three phases.
