Shockwave Therapy
Control Pain. Restore Motion.
Shockwave Therapy program uses targeted acoustic waves to stimulate tissue repair, reduce chronic pain, and accelerate healing. This advanced treatment is designed to break down scar tissue and enhance blood flow, helping patients regain function and improve mobility. Our goal is to support lasting recovery by offering an effective, non-invasive option that enhances the body’s natural healing process.
Benefits of Shockwave Therapy
-
Acoustic compression therapy is effective in reducing pain and promoting faster tissue regeneration and repair in conditions such as plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, and shoulder tendinitis .
-
As a non-invasive treatment, acoustic compression therapy has minimal side effects compared to surgical interventions, usually limited to temporary redness, swelling, or bruising at the treatment site .
“I have been suffering with lower back pain for several years. I get monthly massages and routine adjustments. That has helped but I still have pain daily.
I had one shockwave treatment, and I was blown away at how it targeted exactly where my pain was (not at all where I thought it was coming from by the way). The sensation was uncomfortable once the “spot” was found but quickly started to decrease as time went on. The doctor and I communicated during the treatment, working together to pinpoint the problem area. After maybe a minute my pain level was at a 2!
After the treatment, I felt much looser and able to move more freely. The best part about the experience was feeling heard and validated. I don’t have a broken bone or a disc problem or anything you can see on an image, so I always felt as if maybe the pain wasn’t real. But it was real, and shockwave helped immensely. I am looking forward to my next treatment. “

FAQ
How much does Shockwave Therapy cost?
Shockwave Therapy costs $549 for an entire 6-visit care plan or $188 per month for 3 months of treatment.
*Care Credit, HSA of FSA can be used to cover the cost*
How does Shockwave Therapy work?
The mechanical energy that myofascial acoustic compression therapy provides encourages and stimulates fibroblasts and growth factors to promote healing and increase cell metabolism and local blood flow to the affected area. The treatment is painless because these are pressure sound waves, not electric shocks. The good news is that PiezoWave Pain Treatment deeply penetrates tissue for healing that can’t be achieved through manual adjustments.
What can I expect from this treatment?
During every session, 1000 to 2000 pulse waves will be delivered to an area being treated lasting about ten minutes. You will see maximum benefits with five to six treatments per area with three to five days to allow for proper recovery time. PiezoWave Pain Treatment is believed, and has clinically proven, to have the following effects:
-
Facilitate healing
-
Eliminate pain
-
Stimulate the “washing away” of Substance-P (a pain-producing chemical)
-
Increase the body’s collagen production
-
Increase microcirculation leading to enhanced tissue metabolism
-
Help dissolve calcific fibroblasts
-
Reduce muscle tension
-
Improved function and range of motion to the joint
How long does this treatment take?
Each careplan for shockwave therapy includes 6 treatments with the final treatment being reevaluated by one of our doctors to see what the next steps are for your wellness care!
Does Shockwave Therapy hurt?
Depending on the patient’s current level of pain and the area of treatment, the degree of discomfort varies significantly. The intensity of a treatment session also varies, and many patients can tolerate treatment well because the intensity varies depending on patient tolerance.
Will I experience pain after treatment?
Many patients experience immediate pain relief after PiezoWave Pain Treatment. However, they may experience soreness in the area within two to four hours. According to different clinical reports, the soreness is usually very tolerable and can last a couple of hours to some days.
DO NOT use ice on the area if you experience this soreness. One of the desired effects of PiezoWave Pain Treatment is an “inflammatory response.” Therefore, the use of any medication is not recommended.
The soreness will disappear within 4 to 24 hours without any intervention.
