    Quick, safe, lasting relief

    If you’re suffering from chronic muscle or joint pain, shockwave therapy can quickly deliver you lasting relief.

    Shockwave therapy — also known as extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) — is a non-invasive treatment used in orthopaedics, physiotherapy and sports medicine. The “shockwave” is simply a sound wave that delivers energy to painful spots and enhances blood circulation. It promotes regeneration and repair of your bones and soft tissues, and helps ease pain.

    Shockwave therapy triggers the body’s natural healing response and many patients feel reduced pain and better mobility after just one treatment. There’s no anaesthesia or other drugs required and it has very limited side effects. It’s a great option if you have persistent chronic pain and injuries, especially:

    • Shoulder pain including tendinitis and impingement
    • Chronic muscular and tendon disorders
    • Stubborn knots and scar tissue
    • Tennis and golfer's elbow
    • Hamstring pain
    • Jumper's knee
    • Groin and hip pain
    • Back and neck pain
    • Achilles tendon pain and heel spurs
    • Plantar fasciitis and Morton's neuroma

    Why go for
    shockwave therapy?

    Shockwave helps release painful trigger points, leading to a significant decrease in muscle tension and muscle spasms. Trigger points are extremely sensitive areas of tight, contracted muscle fibres that are a principal cause of pain in the back, neck, shoulder and limbs. They’re typically caused by injury, overuse or repetitive straining.

    Shockwave therapy frequently asked questions

    Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment. The therapy works by using bursts of sound waves to break up scar tissue, knots and adhesions (scar tissue and knots within muscle fascia) and increase blood flow to the injured area. Most patients say it feels like small pulses against the skin. This helps to reduce inflammation, relieve the pain and stimulate the body's own healing processes. Patients experience no down time.
