What is shockwave therapy?
Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) delivers focused acoustic pressure waves to injured soft tissue. Those waves stimulate blood flow and prompt the body's natural repair response in areas where chronic tendon and fascia injuries have stalled and stopped healing on their own.
It's non-surgical, drug-free, and performed in short in-office sessions. For people who have tried months of rest, stretching, and inserts without lasting relief, shockwave offers a different mechanism — treating the tissue itself rather than just masking the pain.
If your pain keeps coming back, you're not imagining it.
Chronic pain has a way of lingering — in your neck, back, or joints. These are the signs shockwave therapy is designed to address.
- Nagging neck, back, or joint pain that won't fully settle
- Pain that returns after activity, standing, or sitting too long
- Months of rest, stretching, or medication with little lasting change
- You want to avoid cortisone injections or surgery
A focused, non‑surgical way to restart healing.
- STEP 01
Evaluation
A provider examines the area and confirms whether shockwave is appropriate for your case.
- STEP 02
Treatment
Acoustic pressure waves are applied to the affected tissue in short weekly sessions — no anesthesia, no incisions.
- STEP 03
Recovery
The waves stimulate blood flow and your body's own repair response, with guidance on load and activity between visits.
What to expect
- 15–30 minutes. Most sessions are quick and you go home right after.
- No anesthesia. You stay awake and comfortable throughout.
- A clear plan. You'll know your recommended number of sessions up front.
- Back to your day. Return to normal activity the same day, with simple guidance.

What most chronic pain treatments miss
A short conversation with our team — here's the kind of thing you'll walk away understanding about your own pain.
- Why stretching, rest, and medication so often stop working — and what shockwave targets that they don't.
- The difference between masking the pain and restarting the tissue's actual healing response.
- How chronic tendon injuries "stall out" — and the mechanism shockwave uses to wake them back up.
- Why neck, back, and joint pain can linger for months (and what that usually says about the tissue).
- What a typical course looks like — sessions, timeline, and what to expect between visits.
- Whether you're a candidate — and exactly how we'd approach your specific injury.
What patients say
"After a year of morning heel pain, I finished my sessions and can walk the dog again without wincing."
