Get back to running faster with Shockwave Therapy.

A highly effective treatment used to accelerate repair in tissues that are slow to heal or have a tendency to heal incompletely.

Shockwave therapy uses high-energy acoustic waves to break down tissue or to promote healing and repair.

It works to quickly and effectively break up soft tissue calcifications, enhance collagen synthesis, release growth factors, and stimulate your body’s healing process to improve pain and help you get back to chasing your goals faster.

This therapy enhances blood circulation and accelerates the healing of stubborn injuries in bones, tendons, ligaments, and muscles.

Our physiotherapists and chiropractors are trained to recognize when shockwave therapy will be beneficial, and to develop treatment parameters that will result in the best possible outcome.

We start with a complete assessment to ensure that shockwave will make a meaningful impact in helping you overcome injury, and work with you to develop a plan, including how many sessions and the most appropriate parameters.

Many individuals will notice a significant change within 1-3 treatments.

Of course, each injury is unique, and treatment is customized to your needs and tolerance. Shockwave therapy is most commonly described as uncomfortable but minimally painful.

Shockwave treatment is localized to the area being treated and has been shown to be highly effective in treating many conditions, including:

• Plantar fasciitis

• Hamstring tendinopathy

• Patellar tendinopathy

• Medial tibial stress syndrome (shin splints)

• Achilles tendinopathy

• Knee osteoarthritis

• Slow healing fractures

• IT band syndrome

• Tendinopathy in the shoulder and elbow

All of our Physiotherapists and Chiropractors are trained in how to effectively use Shockwave Therapy to help you overcome injury. Simply book in a session with the practitioner of your choice and they’ll work with you to develop a plan!
