Shockwave Therapy in Edmonton, Alberta
What is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave therapy is a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment that uses high-energy sound waves, known as radial shockwaves, to stimulate healing in damaged tissues. This therapy is particularly effective for treating chronic pain conditions like plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, and Achilles tendonitis. By enhancing blood circulation and promoting tissue regeneration, shockwave therapy accelerates the body’s natural healing process.
When you undergo shockwave therapy in Edmonton, the procedure involves delivering controlled pulses of acoustic energy to the affected area. These sound waves penetrate deep into the tissue, promoting new nerve cell growth, reducing inflammation, and helping to repair scar tissue. Over time, this process leads to significant pain reduction and improved mobility, allowing patients to resume their normal activities without discomfort.
Unlike traditional treatments that may require surgery or long recovery times, shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that offers rapid pain relief with minimal discomfort. Patients typically experience a noticeable improvement in their symptoms after just one treatment session, making it an effective and convenient option for those suffering from chronic pain or acute injuries.
Benefits of Shockwave Therapy
Getting treated with shockwave therapy at Pulse Health has many benefits. This treatment accelerates healing, improves blood flow and gives rapid relief from chronic and acute pain. Here’s why shockwave therapy is a great choice:
Rapid Pain Relief
Shockwave therapy targets the source of your pain, delivers high energy waves that stimulate tissue repair and reduces inflammation. This gives you rapid pain relief and gets you back to your daily activities sooner.
Non-Invasive Treatment
One of the best things about shockwave therapy is that it’s a non-invasive treatment. No incisions or anesthesia required, so no surgery and its risks. Most patients feel only slight discomfort during the treatment.
Enhanced Tissue Healing
Shockwave therapy promotes tissue regeneration by stimulating blood flow and new blood vessel growth. This increased blood flow accelerates the healing process, reduces recovery time and improves overall tissue health.
Effective for Multiple Conditions
Whether you have chronic pain from plantar fasciitis or acute injuries like shin splints, shockwave therapy can be an effective treatment. It’s also great for musculoskeletal conditions like rotator cuff injuries and golfer’s elbow.
Minimal Recovery Time
Since shockwave therapy is non-invasive there’s minimal recovery time. You can get back to your normal activities almost immediately after the treatment, making it a great option for busy people.
Shockwave Therapy Procedure at Pulse Health
At Pulse Health we provide personalized care to each patient. Our shockwave therapy process is designed to be comfortable and effective.
1. Initial Consultation: The first step in shockwave therapy in Edmonton is an initial consultation with our chiropractors. We’ll assess your condition, discuss your symptoms and create a customized treatment plan for you.
2. Preparation for Treatment: Before we start the therapy we’ll prepare the area by applying a special gel. This gel helps to transmit the shockwaves better into the tissue so the treatment is comfortable and effective.
3. Application of Shockwaves: Our chiropractor will use a handheld device to deliver controlled pulses of shockwaves to the area. The treatment takes about 10 to 20 minutes depending on the severity of your condition. Most patients feel only slight discomfort during this stage.
4. Post Treatment Care: After the treatment we’ll give you detailed aftercare instructions. Some patients may feel slight discomfort or soreness but this usually subsides within a few hours.
5. Follow Up Sessions: Depending on your condition additional sessions may be required to achieve the best results. Most patients see significant improvements after one treatment but a series of treatments may be recommended for optimal healing.
