Shock Wave Therapy

Shockwave Therapy is now a popular rehabilitation device in Medical Centres and Allied Health Clinics in Australia and around the world.

Clinical evidence demonstrates that Shockwave Therapy restores injured tissue and reduces pain for chronic tendinopathies. It can also be used for myofascial pain syndrome with deactivation of trigger points and lengthening of fascial band constrictions which leads to increased range of motion and restored function. 

It is commonly used in conjunction with other traditional methods such as exercise to optimise treatment outcomes.
