SHOCKWAVE THERAPY

Shockwave is a non-invasive and effective treatment option that delivers pain relief and rapid recovery.

What is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave therapy is an advanced, non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic energy to target damaged tissues, stimulate healing, and provide long-lasting pain relief. Whether you're recovering from a sports injury, managing chronic pain, or seeking aesthetic improvements, shockwave therapy offers a safe and effective solution.

How It Works:

  • High-energy sound waves penetrate deep into your tissues.

  • The therapy enhances blood circulation, breaks down scar tissue, and stimulates cell regeneration.

  • It promotes rapid healing and restores mobility without the need for surgery or downtime.

    • Inflammation of the tissue surrounding the bones.

Aesthetic & Cosmetic

  • Cellulite Reduction

    • Improves skin elasticity and reduces the appearance of cellulite.

  • Scar Tissue Treatment

    • Breaks down fibrous scar tissue, improving mobility and appearance.

  • Skin Rejuvenation

    • Enhances collagen production, promoting firmer, smoother skin.

Neurological & Vascular Conditions

  • Peripheral Neuropathy

    • Reduces pain and improves nerve function.

  • Raynaud’s Phenomenon

    • Improves blood flow in the extremities.

Men’s Health Conditions

  • Erectile Dysfunction (ED)

    • Promotes improved blood flow and tissue regeneration in the penile area.

  • Peyronie’s Disease

    • Reduces scar tissue and curvature of the penis.

Additional Conditions

  • Chronic Wounds and Ulcers

    • Enhances healing by increasing blood flow to the affected area.

  • Diabetic Foot Ulcers

    • Assists in wound healing and tissue repair.

  • Pelvic Pain Syndrome

    • Alleviates chronic pelvic pain.

  • Lymphatic Drainage Issues

    • Stimulates circulation for better lymph flow

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT®) is the most advanced and highly effective non-invasive treatment method cleared by the FDA. This proprietary technology is based on a unique set of pressure waves that stimulate the metabolism, enhance blood circulation, and accelerate the healing process. Damaged tissue gradually regenerates and eventually heals. This non-invasive office/clinic-based procedure represents a breakthrough treatment option for a broad range of musculoskeletal conditions.

  • The treatment delivers high-energy sound waves to targeted areas of the body. These waves increase blood flow, stimulate tissue repair, break down scar tissue, jump-starting the body’s natural healing processes and reduce pain.

  • Generally, acute or chronic muscle pain and/or tendon insertional pain that significantly impairs mobility or quality of life including neck, shoulder, back and chest, upper extremity, lower extremity, foot and ankle, and myofascial trigger points.

  • Treatment sessions typically take 10-15 minutes.

  • Typically for acute injuries 3-5 treatments spaced out every 3-5 days is recommended.

  • The beneficial effects of EPAT® are often experienced after only 3 treatments. Some patients report immediate pain relief after the treatment, although it can take up to four weeks for pain relief to begin. The procedure eliminates pain and restores full mobility, thus improving the patient’s quality of life. Over 80% of patients treated report to be pain-free and/or have significant pain reduction.

  • One of the benefits of shockwave therapy is minimal to no downtime. Most patients can resume their normal activities immediately after treatment.

  • Most patients describe the sensation as tolerable and similar to deep pressure. The intensity can be adjusted to your comfort level, and any discomfort typically subsides quickly after the session.

  • Side effects are minimal and may include mild redness, swelling, or soreness in the treated area. These typically resolve within a day or two.

  • Shockwave therapy is suitable for most people experiencing musculoskeletal pain or injuries. However, it may not be recommended for individuals with:

    • Blood clotting disorders

    • Tumors in the treatment area

    • Pregnant individuals

    • Severe nerve damage

  • Shockwave therapy is often considered an elective or out-of-pocket treatment. We recommend checking with your insurance provider or contacting us for flexible payment options.

  • Shockwave sessions typically cost between $100-$200 per session with discounted rates for treatment packages.
