SHOCK WAVE THERAPY FOR MUSCLE PAIN
What is Shock Wave Therapy?
Shock Wave Therapy, also known as Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT), employs acoustic waves which carry high energy to painful spots and musculoskeletal tissues with subacute, subchronic, and chronic conditions. The energy promotes regeneration and reparative processes of the bones, tendons, and other soft tissues.
Benefits of Shock Wave Therapy at San Ramon Medical & Aesthetic
- Non-Invasive and Drug-Free: One of the significant advantages of Shock Wave Therapy is its non-invasive nature, eliminating the need for surgical procedures or medications, which can carry potential side effects.
- Prompt Pain Relief: Many patients report immediate pain relief following the therapy, with continued improvements seen over subsequent sessions.
- Enhanced Mobility: Beyond pain relief, the therapy aids in restoring mobility, which can be hampered due to muscle pain or related conditions.
- Short Treatment Duration: Each session is quick, often taking just 15-20 minutes, depending on the area being treated.
- Expert Delivery: At San Ramon Medical & Aesthetic, the therapy is administered by trained professionals, ensuring optimal delivery and results.
- Versatility: Shock Wave Therapy can be employed to treat various musculoskeletal conditions, not just muscle pain. This includes but isn’t limited to tendinitis, heel spurs, and calcific shoulder tendinitis.
How Does It Work?
The device delivers strong energy pulses for short periods of time on the targeted areas. These pulses induce micro-trauma which, counterintuitively, promotes the body’s natural healing process by enhancing blood circulation and cellular repair.
