Shock Wave or Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) is the absolute cutting edge treatment for numerous ailments of the foot and ankle, lower leg, thigh and knee, pelvis and hip, forearm and wrist, upper arm and elbow, shoulder, and any source of trigger points. 

ESWT is capable of producing sonic waves with high amplitude, which creates energy to reduce calcification, increase blood flow and decrease healing time. With this proliferation of growth factors and increase in blood circulation, degenerative tissue gets a chance to heal. The treatment often does not require anesthetic and lasts about 8-9 minutes. Three short treatments, one week apart, are required for success. Please call our office today to schedule your consultation for shock wave therapy.
