Shockwave Therapy for Heel Pain
Fast, effective non-surgical treatment for chronic heel pain.
If you have chronic heel pain that isn't improving, shockwave therapy can be an effective non-surgical treatment.
Used successfully for years by athletes, sports medicine specialists, and podiatrists, shockwave therapy offers relief without surgery or prolonged downtime.
What is shockwave therapy?
Shockwave therapy (also called Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy or ESWT) is a treatment that uses sound waves to stimulate healing in damaged tissue.
The shockwaves are directed precisely at the affected area, promoting:
- ✓ Increased blood flow to the area
- ✓ Stimulation of the body's natural healing response
- ✓ Reduction in pain signals
- ✓ Breakdown of calcium deposits (heel spurs)
