Shockwave Facts and Features
Shockwave improves the metabolism in the pain region, increases blood circulation, and effectively stimulates the body’s intrinsic repair mechanisms. Damaged tissue gradually regenerates and eventually heals. In other words, Shockwave Therapy is all about activating the body’s self-healing abilities.
Shockwave Therapy does not generally cause any significant discomfort and there is NO local anesthetic required. Many patients describe their treatment as "mild sensation" to "moderately uncomfortable" but few report any significant or lasting pain.
