Shockwave Therapy in New York
Radial and focused acoustic waves stimulate healing in chronic tendons and fascia that have exhausted their natural repair capacity, the treatment of choice when everything else has plateaued.
When chronic tissue needs a wake-up call.
Shockwave therapy uses high-energy acoustic pressure waves to stimulate biological healing in chronic soft tissue conditions. Tendons and fascia that have been in a state of chronic degeneration, lacking blood supply and unable to remodel, respond to shockwave by initiating new blood vessel formation, stimulating collagen synthesis, and reactivating the repair process.
It is particularly powerful for calcific deposits: the acoustic waves break down the calcium and allow the body to reabsorb it. Most patients with conditions like calcific shoulder tendinitis or chronic plantar fasciitis, who have failed all other conservative care, experience significant improvement within 3 to 5 sessions.
Short sessions, significant cumulative effect.
Target Tissue Identified
Your therapist locates the exact site of degeneration or calcification through palpation and movement testing. Accurate targeting is critical to shockwave effectiveness.
Acoustic Wave Application
A probe delivers controlled acoustic pulses to the target tissue for 5 to 10 minutes. You will feel a repetitive pressure sensation that ranges from mild to moderate. Most patients tolerate it well.
Progressive Treatment Course
Sessions are spaced 5 to 7 days apart to allow the biological response to develop. Most conditions require 3 to 5 sessions. You may feel soreness for 24 to 48 hours after each session, a sign the tissue is responding.
