Pain Relief: Discover Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy

Soft tissue injuries can be quite painful long-term. One of the new technologies to treat such injuries is Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy.

It produces high-energy shock waves which can heal any musculoskeletal conditions. Examples are – Achilles tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, and tennis elbow.

A probe applies shock waves to the target area. It’s not clear why it promotes healing but it is very helpful. It’s completely non-invasive.

It may improve blood flow and soft tissue repair in some people.
