Radial shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment used primarily for musculoskeletal conditions. It involves acoustic waves to targeted areas of the body.

Purpose: The goal of the therapy is to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes. It’s often used to treat conditions like plantar fasciitis, tendinitis, and other chronic pain or injury issues in muscles, tendons, and ligaments.

How It Helps: The shockwaves can improve blood flow, stimulate collagen production, and increase cellular repair mechanisms. This can help reduce pain, enhance mobility, and accelerate healing.

Treatment Protocol: Sessions typically last between 5 to 15 minutes, and several treatments might be needed depending on the condition being treated.

Side Effects: It’s generally considered safe, but some patients might experience temporary discomfort, redness, or swelling in the treated area. The downtime per treatment is virtually nothing.
