The cost of shockwave therapy is variable and influenced by several factors. The type of conditions being treated is one of them. For instance, the cost of treating conditions like plantar fasciitis or Achilles tendinitis, which are common in podiatry, would differ from procedures like Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) used to treat kidney stones. The type of equipment used at our clinic can also impact the final cost. Different types of shockwave therapy machines may be used, and their costs can vary. The number of sessions required, generally ranging from three to five but can be more based on the severity of the condition, can also affect the total cost. Dr. Baik's experience and qualifications can also influence the cost. The level of his expertise and the quality of care provided at our clinic can have an impact on the pricing. We might also add fees for consultation, follow-up visits, or any necessary accessories. Insurance coverage is a critical point to consider. Shockwave therapy is not typically covered by insurance, so patients are advised to confer with their insurance providers to determine their coverage and potential out-of-pocket costs before undergoing treatment at our clinic. In terms of specific figures, the cost of a single shockwave therapy session can range from as low as $50 to as high as to as high as $1,500. However, the total costs associated with a complete treatment plan could be higher, as multiple sessions are often recommended. It's best to consult with the chosen practice for a more accurate cost estimate.
