What is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave therapy is also known as Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy(ESWT). It is a non-invasive method that uses acoustic pressure to reduce pain and stimulate healing of damaged tissue. It is typically used for those conditions which involve the damage or dysfunction of muscles, ligaments or tendons. Now this therapy technique is spreading widely for the solution of more abnormalities.

How Does Shockwave Therapy Work?

Shockwave therapy works by sending acoustic waves to the affected area. These waves change the pressure inside the tissue. By this way it increases the circulation and nutrients delivery to the injured area. This also activates the cells that cause the healing of the body. It reduces the pain sensation too. In this way it  gives relief from pain and fastens the healing process. Over a series of treatments, these effects help regenerate healthy tissue, restore function, and decrease pain.

Types of Shockwave Therapy

Halifax provides two types of shockwave therapy and uses it according to the condition of the patient. Here are these:

High Energy Shockwave Therapy:

It is high energy shockwaves, applied only for a short duration. Its energy waves target the damaged tissue precisely. It is used for conditions like calcific tendonitis and many other chronic conditions. It is also called True Shockwaves.

Low Energy Shockwave Therapy:

It is low energy waves that are applied for a long time. It is less intense than high energy shockwaves. It is used for soft tissue injury treatment or to treat a large body area.
