Shockwave Therapy
at Schreppler Chiropractic Offices P.A
Shockwave therapy or sometimes referred to as Radial Wave Therapy is a simple, non-invasive way to help your body heal naturally. Using acoustic waves, this advanced technique supports soft tissue recovery and helps reduce pain without relying on medication or surgery.
How Shockwave Therapy Helps
Shockwave therapy works by sending focused acoustic waves deep into the soft tissues around an injured area. These waves kick-start your body’s natural healing process by stimulating collagen production, improving circulation, and promoting cellular repair.
In short, it’s not designed to help you feel better, it is designed to make you heal better!.
Each session takes about 10 minutes. We’ll apply a specialized gel and use a handheld device to target the problem area with precision. The process is straightforward and works hand-in-hand with chiropractic adjustments. While adjustments restore proper joint motion and nerve function, shockwave therapy focuses on soft tissue recovery, helping you get the most out of your care.
Conditions We Often See
Shockwave therapy provides relief for a wide range of conditions that can affect your mobility. It can be a helpful option for a variety of common conditions, including:
- Neck and shoulder pain, including rotator cuff injuries
- Tennis/Golfer’s elbow & any other hand & forearm tendonitis
- Lower back pain and sciatica
- Knee pain, including arthritis symptoms
- Achilles tendon injuries
- Plantar fasciitis and heel pain
Most people benefit from four to six sessions, but many notice a difference after just one. The treatments are quick, target the source of discomfort directly, and don’t involve medication or significant side effects.
