Shockwave therapy is a type of non-invasive treatment that uses high-frequency sound waves to stimulate the body. The sound waves are transmitted through the body and into any areas that need stimulation. This can help to treat a variety of conditions, including pain, inflammation, and medical conditions. There are many  benefits of shockwave therapy.

    How Shockwaves Work

Shockwaves are waves of pressure that travel through a medium at high speed. When they hit an object, these waves cause it to vibrate. This vibration can be felt by the person who is receiving the shockwaves and can cause different parts of their body to move in different directions.

This motion is what makes shockwave therapy work. The therapist uses a machine that creates these waves and sends them to the patient. The patient then feels these vibrations throughout their body and this can help to improve their symptoms.

    What Kinds of Treatment is Available with Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave therapy is a type of physical therapy that uses high-intensity sound waves to treat conditions such as back pain, neck pain, spinal cord injuries, and Bell's palsy. Shockwaves travel through the body and stimulate the muscles, tendons, and ligaments to improve their function.

The treatment is available in a number of different formats, including manual therapy (in which a therapist manually applies shockwaves to the affected area), ultrasound (which uses low-frequency sound waves to cause tissue vibrations), and magnetic resonance technology (MRT). In each format, the therapist uses different settings on the machine to produce specific wavesforms that target the area being treated.

Different types of shockwaves have different benefits for treating different conditions. Manual therapy utilizing low-frequency shockwaves is most beneficial for relieving back pain, neck pain, and tension headaches; ultrasound produces shorter bursts of higher-frequency shocks that can reduce swelling; MRT emits large, continuous waves that can break up scar tissue and improve nerve function.
