Shockwave Therapy for Chronic Pain in Waxahachie, TX

Shockwave therapy is a non-surgical treatment designed to help resolve stubborn pain that hasn’t responded to other treatments. Shockwave therapy is delivered as a short series of treatments designed to stimulate real healing, not temporary pain relief.

Shockwave therapy has shown to effectively treat the following conditions:

  • Feet – heel spurs, plantar fasciitis, & Achilles’ tendonitis

  • Elbow – Tennis & golfer’s elbow

  • Shoulder – Rotator cuff tendinosis & frozen shoulder

  • Knee – patellar tendonitis & Jumper’s knee

  • Hip – Trochanteric Bursitis & Piriformis syndrome.

  • leg – shin splints & Iliotibial band syndrome

  • Back & neck pain caused by scar tissue, tendonitis, adhesions, & muscle tightness

When the sound waves pass through normal, flexible, and hydrated tissues and bones, it simply passes through without any disturbance or sensation and will be painless. When the waves hit dense and dehydrated scar tissue the patient feels an achy sensation at the site. This is how we know exactly where to work. The intensity of the machine can be turned up or down accordingly. Treatments are typically 10 minutes.
