Shockwave Therapy

 

At One Wellness, select physiotherapists offer Shockwave Therapy as an advanced, non-invasive treatment option for clients experiencing chronic pain, stubborn musculoskeletal conditions, or slow-healing injuries. This innovative therapy is designed to accelerate the body’s natural healing processes by using high-energy acoustic waves directed at specific areas of the body.

How It Works

Shockwave Therapy, also known as Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT), involves the application of acoustic pressure waves to injured soft tissue or bone. These pulses stimulate circulation, break down calcified tissue, reduce inflammation, and trigger cellular repair mechanisms—promoting faster, more effective healing.

What It Treats

Shockwave Therapy is commonly used to treat a range of conditions, including:

  • Plantar fasciitis and heel spurs

  • Achilles tendinopathy

  • Tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow

  • Rotator cuff tendinopathy

  • Patellar tendinopathy (jumper’s knee)

  • Hip bursitis

  • Chronic muscular pain and trigger points

Benefits

  • Non-surgical and drug-free

  • Minimal side effects and downtime

  • Targets the root cause of chronic pain

  • Stimulates long-term tissue repair and regeneration

  • Often effective after 3–6 treatment sessions

What to Expect

Shockwave Therapy is delivered in short bursts to the affected area during your appointment. Clients may experience mild discomfort during treatment, depending on the intensity of the condition and sensitivity of the area being treated. Your physiotherapist will adjust the intensity based on your comfort level and treatment goals.

Is It Right for You?

Shockwave Therapy is ideal for individuals who have not responded to traditional physiotherapy, medication, or rest. A personalized assessment by one of our qualified physiotherapists will determine if this treatment is appropriate for your condition.
