Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy involves a series of shockwave pulses which generates sound waves by an air compressor that are applied to the injured area.
Shockwave Therapy helps regenerate new tissue and facilitates healing by:
-
Improving local blood flow
-
Stimulations of fibroblasts to increase collagen production
-
Reduction of local muscle tension trigger points
-
Breakdown of calcium deposits
The current research shows that Shockwave therapy has high success rates of up to 70-80%.
