Expert shockwave therapists

Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses targeted sound waves to stimulate healing in injured or painful tissue.

It’s commonly used for persistent tendon, muscle, and soft tissue conditions and works by improving blood flow, reducing pain, and encouraging the body’s natural repair processes.

Shockwave therapy is often used for ongoing tendon or soft tissue pain that hasn’t fully settled.

This may include pain in areas such as the heel or foot, Achilles, elbow, shoulder, or other tendons that are sore, stiff, or painful with activity. These issues are often labelled with names such as plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendon pain, tennis elbow, or shoulder tendinopathy.
