Shockwave Therapy or Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) is a non-invasive procedure administered by Physiotherapists, where a series of pressurized air wave pulsations are applied to the skin in the area where the injury is located. This therapy stimulates the body’s soft tissues (muscles, tendons, and connective tissue) natural self-healing process and can be very effective in treating subacute, sub chronic, chronic conditions as well as recurrent or unresolved conditions. As Shockwave therapy may not be appropriate for certain health conditions, your Physiotherapist will be able to confirm is Shockwave Therapy is recommended for you.
