A Non-Invasive Method for Treating A Variety of Conditions
Have you recently suffered a sports injury? Are you struggling with musculoskeletal pain? Shockwave therapy at Hands of Hope could be the non-invasive pain management tool you’re looking for!
The term “shockwave therapy” might sound alarming. Its full name–extracorporeal pulse activation technology (EPAT)–sounds like something out of science fiction. However, there’s nothing to fear from shockwave therapy, which uses high-energy sound waves to reduce pain, facilitate healing and blood circulation, and minimize inflammation.
What Conditions Benefit from Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave therapy is an effective tool for managing pain and mobility restrictions stemming from soft tissue injuries, such as sprains, strains, and tendinopathies). However, it can also help with joint disorders, such as osteoarthritis.
We often use shockwave therapy to treat the following:
- Tennis elbow
- Runner’s knee
- Plantar fasciitis
- Achilles tendonitis
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- And many more!
What Can I Expect from a Shockwave Therapy Session?
We’ll start by palpating the affected area to ensure we’re targeting treatment correctly. Next, we’ll apply a gel to the affected area, similar to what happens during an ultrasound. The gel ensures the shockwaves effectively transfer to your body without losing energy.
We use a wand to deliver the shockwaves, which work by causing controlled microtrauma to your soft tissue. The body, in turn, responds to this microtrauma by sending more blood to the area, facilitating your body’s natural healing process.
And that’s it! A single session typically takes 5-10 minutes, although most people require recurring sessions to see results. Shockwave therapy is a safe, simple procedure with minimal side effects. You may experience slight muscle discomfort (similar to what you feel after a workout), but that’s normal and easily managed.
