Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses high-energy sound waves to stimulate healing in injured tendons, ligaments, and other soft tissues. This therapy enhances blood circulation, promotes new tissue growth, and reduces pain by activating the body's natural healing processes. It is commonly used for conditions like plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, and chronic tendinopathy, offering an effective alternative to surgery and medication.
