Shockwave therapy

Extracorporeal shockwave therapy delivers acoustic energy into chronically injured tendon and fascia to restart a stalled healing response. There is no anaesthetic, no incision, and no downtime.

What's Involved

Suitability assessment — Ultrasound to confirm the tissue change shockwave is effective for.
A course of treatment — Typically three to five sessions of a few minutes each.
Combined care — Paired with loading exercise and orthotic support for a durable result.

When to Come In

Chronic plantar fasciitis — Heel pain lasting more than three months.
Achilles or patellar tendinopathy — Degenerative tendon pain resistant to rehabilitation.
Wanting a non-invasive option — An alternative when injections or surgery are unappealing.
