How Does Shockwave Therapy Work?
Shockwave Therapy works by delivering mechanical waves of compressed air to the injured tissues, this acoustic energy results in:
Shockwave Therapy prevents pain signal from reaching the brain.
Shockwave Therapy causes an inflammatory response in the injured tissues.
The body responds by increasing metabolic activity and blood flow around the site of injury - stimulating the body’s healing response.
Shockwave Therapy breaks down scar tissue and calcified bodies with in the muscles or tendons.
