Shockwave Therapy for Tendon & Ligament Injuries

Shockwave therapy is a new treatment option offered at Alpha Chiropractic. It is a great treatment option for those suffering from tendon injuries, especially Achilles tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, knee tendonitis, and rotator cuff syndrome. This type of therapy aims to repair scar tissue that may be damaged from excess pressure, force or stress.
Shockwave therapy can heal damaged tendons and ligaments and repair scar tissue by triggering the body’s natural repairing processes with wave energy. Wave energy is targeted at the damaged tissue and causes further breakage, acting as a catalyst so that the body’s repairing mechanisms are triggered. Controlled shockwave therapy will allow patients to heal comfortably, and new shockwave technology is mindful of chronic pain. Because the wave energy is less focused and spreads out, patients will not have to worry about increased inflammation around their area of injury.
Shockwave therapy is one of many treatment options that will lead patients experiencing chronic pain in the foot, knee, elbow or shoulder to recovery. If you are suffering from pain caused by tendon injuries, shockwave therapy may be for you. To learn more about how you can make steps toward recovery in Chandler AZ, please visit robertsonfamily...
