Impingement, tendonitis, calcifications and frozen shoulder are all causes of painful shoulder and can lead to severe pain in the sufferer. Shockwave therapy can be used as an alternative to steroid injections or invasive surgeries and will significantly reduce pain in just a few sessions.

Calcifying tendonitis is caused by the build up of calcium deposits on the rotator cuff tendons. This leads to pain in the area as well as a reduction in movement.  This chronic painful disorder can be effectively treated with shockwave therapy. The sound waves transmitted to the area cause controlled microtrauma to the calcific tendon, as well as aiding the break down and reabsorption of these fragments.

Shockwave therapy will also speed up the body’s natural healing process, whilst also eliminating pain and symptoms quickly and efficiently.

Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis) is a condition that occurs when tendons in your elbow are overloaded. Pain begins on the outside of your elbow and can spread to the wrist and forearm. Shockwave therapy can provide quick and effective noninvasive pain relief to the area and significantly reduces the recovery time in patients.

The hip area can often present overuse pain that is overlooked and left untreated. It can be caused by tears in tendons or typically arises from degenerative issues such as cartilage wearing down.

The body’s natural healing process is accelerated through use of Shockwave therapy, and this combined with the reduction of inflammation will help to relieve pain for the sufferer.

Repetitive and persistent activities can place tremendous strain on tendons, leading to ongoing pain in the muscle insertions. Shockwave therapy can be used to initiate repair of the inflamed tissue and speed up the healing process by effectively increasing blood flow to the affected areas.

Jumper’s knee (Patellar Tendonitis) is a painful condition caused by small tears in the patellar tendon, through overuse.  Commonly a sports-related injury, it is difficult to treat and as well as causing tremendous pain will heavily reduce function and performance in athletes.

Shockwave therapy is a gentle treatment that can help eliminate pain and significantly reduces recovery time in patients, meaning they can be pain free and back to sport in just a few sessions.

Shin Splints (Medial tibial stress syndrome) is a progressive stress disorder caused by an excessive amount of force being placed on bones, muscles and joints of the legs. Pain is felt on the front of the leg and is caused by inflammation of the tissues due to stresses placed on the shin bone.

The use of Shockwave therapy will avoid the need of steroid injections or invasive surgeries and is used to greatly reduce recovery time by lessening inflammation and speeding up the healing process.

Achilles tendonitis pain

Shockwave Therapy can help with acute Achilles tendonitis pain including insertional Achilles tendonitis and non-insertional Achilles tendonitis. The sound waves help to break down the scar tissue and promote healing.

Plantar fasciitis pain

If you are suffering from plantar fasciitis pain, Shockwave Therapy can help. The sound waves help to break down the scar tissue and promote healing.

Patellar tendonitis pain

If you are suffering from patellar tendonitis pain, Shockwave Therapy can help. The sound waves help to break down the scar tissue and promote healing.

Shoulder tendinitis pain

If you are suffering from shoulder tendinitis pain, Shockwave Therapy can help. The sound waves help.

Heel spurs are a pointy growth on the bone of the heel, caused when a calcium deposit builds up, normally due to overuse and overloading of the plantar fascia (band of tissue that runs along the bottom of the foot).

Whilst some people can live without knowing they have heel spurs; some can cause significant pain due to inflammation developing in the surrounding area. Shockwave therapy can be hugely effective in altering calcified tendon tissue and bone as well is encouraging a faster healing process through increased blood flow to the area.
