What is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that utilizes high energy acoustic waves that interact with musculoskeletal tissue, promoting enhanced tissue repair and cell growth. It is used to treat subacute, subchronic, and chronic pain conditions.

How Does Shockwave Therapy Work?

During a Shockwave Therapy treatment, a handheld device is used to deliver high-energy shockwaves directly to the affected area. The treatment is non-invasive and does not require anesthesia. The shockwaves stimulate the body’s natural healing response, which promotes the regeneration of damaged tissue and reduces pain.

What to Expect With Your Treatment

During your Shockwave Therapy treatment, you may experience some discomfort, but it should not be painful. After the treatment, you may experience some mild soreness or discomfort, but this typically subsides within a few days. Most patients experience significant improvement after just a few sessions, and many are able to return to their normal activities with reduced pain and increased mobility.

AMAZING!!!i had lower back pain for 4 months, affecting my sleep, walking, and sitting. My first time ever going to a chiropractor yesterday. The ladies at he front desk are incredibly friendly,and helpful. Dr. Mauch did x-rays and then gave me a detailed review of my problem. He gave me an adjustment, and I slept like a log, with a sleep score of 89%, pain free getting out of bed, and walking around.I am so thrilled and thankful!!!This should be your only stop for a chiro in Durham!!!!Thank you Dr. Mauch...

Shockwave Therapy F.A.Q.

Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive medical treatment that uses high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate healing and reduce pain in soft tissue injuries.
Shockwave Therapy works by stimulating the body’s natural healing response, which helps to increase blood flow, reduce inflammation, and promote tissue regeneration.
Shockwave Therapy can be used to treat a variety of soft tissue injuries, such as plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinitis, tennis elbow, and rotator cuff injuries.
While some patients may experience mild discomfort during the treatment, Shockwave Therapy is generally not painful. Most patients report feeling a tingling or numbing sensation during the treatment.
The number of Shockwave Therapy sessions required will depend on the individual patient and the severity of their injury. Most patients require between 3 and 5 sessions, spaced 1 to 2 weeks apart.
Each Shockwave Therapy session typically lasts between 10 and 15 minutes.

During a Shockwave Therapy session, the therapist will apply a handheld device to the affected area, which will deliver high-energy acoustic waves to the tissue. The patient may experience mild discomfort or tingling during the treatment.

While Shockwave Therapy is generally safe, some patients may experience mild side effects such as redness, swelling, or mild soreness after the treatment.

The coverage for Shockwave Therapy may vary depending on the your insurance provider and plan. It’s best to check with your provider to determine if Shockwave Therapy is covered.

Before your Shockwave Therapy treatment, you should avoid taking any pain medication or anti-inflammatory drugs. You should also wear loose, comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the affected area.
