What is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave Therapy, also known as Radial Pressure Wave Therapy, involves the use of acoustic waves to generate oscillations within the tissue. The wave hits the body at skin surface and from there travels radially into the body to a depth of around 2”. In the body, the pressure waves stimulate metabolic activity and the body's intrinsic healing mechanism.
