PULSEWAVE THERAPY

At the forefront of non-invasive therapeutic solutions, Pulsewave Therapy offers a revolutionary approach to healing soft tissue through the application of radial sound waves. This innovative method stimulates the body's natural healing processes, providing a safe and effective alternative for those seeking relief from musculoskeletal issues.

What is Pulsewave Therapy?

Pulsewave Therapy, also referred to as Shockwave Therapy, utilizes radial sound waves to stimulate the body's healing response. The treatment is non-invasive, making it an attractive option for individuals looking for alternatives to surgery or pharmaceutical interventions. The type of Pulsewave Therapy employed in our practice is 'Radial,' a technique that delivers focused energy to the affected area.

How Does Radial Pulse Wave Therapy Work?

The healing power of sound waves lies in their ability to penetrate deep into soft tissues. Radial Pulse Wave Therapy targets the affected area, promoting increased blood flow, cellular repair and regeneration. This process triggers the body's natural healing mechanisms, encouraging the resolution of various musculoskeletal conditions.

Understanding Inflammation

Contrary to popular belief, inflammation is not always a negative response. In fact, it is a crucial part of the body's healing cycle. Pulsewave Therapy recognizes the importance of inflammation at certain levels, as it signifies the initiation of the healing process. By modulating inflammation, Pulsewave Therapy promotes a balanced and effective healing response.

FAQs

Got a question? We’re here to help.

  • What is Pulsewave Therapy?

    Pulsewave therapy involves the use of acoustic waves to treat various musculoskeletal conditions and promote tissue regeneration. It is often used in the treatment of conditions such as tendinitis, plantar fasciitis and other orthopedic issues.

  • How does Pulsewave Therapy work?

    The therapy works by delivering high-energy acoustic waves to the affected area. These waves stimulate blood flow, improve circulation and enhance the body's natural healing processes. It can also break down calcifications and scar tissue.

  • What conditions can be treated with Pulsewave Therapy?

    Pulsewave therapy is commonly used to treat conditions such as chronic tendonitis (e.g., tennis elbow, Achilles tendonitis), plantar fasciitis, calcific shoulder tendinopathy and other musculoskeletal disorders.

  • Is Pulsewave Therapy painful?

    The therapy may cause some discomfort during the procedure, but it is generally well-tolerated. Discomfort is often temporary and may be a sign that the treatment is having a positive effect on the targeted tissues.

  • What are the potential side effects of Pulsewave Therapy?

    Side effects are generally minimal and may include temporary soreness, redness or swelling at the treatment site. Serious side effects are rare.

  • Is Pulsewave Therapy the same as ultrasound therapy or laser therapy?

    No, pulsewave therapy is distinct from ultrasound therapy and laser therapy. While they all fall under the category of physical therapy modalities, they use different mechanisms to achieve therapeutic effects.
