Shockwave Therapy

Home > Service Detail

What Is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave Therapy is a gentle, non-invasive treatment that delivers special sound waves to areas of pain or injury. These sound waves create tiny amounts of controlled injury that hike up your body’s natural repair processes. Most patients say they feel a light tapping or a pulsing pressure—never anything sharp—and they walk out ready to resume work or kick off games without missing a beat.  

What Can Shockwave Therapy Treat?

If you live in Lacombe and struggle with:  

  • Plantar fasciitis (heel pain)  
  • Tennis elbow or golfer’s elbow  
  • Shoulder tendinitis or calcium deposits  
  • Hip bursitis  
  • Persistent tightness in your neck or back  
  • Shin splints or other overuse syndromes  
  • Trigger points or myofascial pain, 

 

then Shockwave Therapy deserves a try, especially if other treatments haven’t stuck.

Shockwave therapy has proven to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions, including tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, chronic pain, muscle strains, and more. It has also been successful in addressing issues that may not have responded well to other treatment methods.

The benefits of shockwave therapy are numerous. Patients often experience accelerated healing, reduced pain, and improved mobility after undergoing this treatment. Additionally, shockwave therapy can help break down scar tissue and stimulate collagen production, leading to long-lasting relief and enhanced tissue function.

 

How Shockwave Therapy Gets Results

Rather than masking pain or covering it up, Shockwave Therapy gets to the roots of trouble:

It shatters built-up calcium and old scar tissue.

It nudges blood and oxygen to the area.

It sparks collagen, the body’s building block for repair.

It calms swelling and eases over-sensitive nerves.

These actions lead to lighter pain, greater movement, and improvements that tend to stick—no pills or injections needed.
