Shockwave therapy uses an acoustic wave that carries high energy to painful spots and musculoskeletal tissues with subacute, subchronic and chronic conditions. The energy promotes regeneration and reparative processes of the bones, tendons, and other soft tissues. 

Shockwave therapy is used to help improve chronic musculoskeletal conditions. It can be used for myofascial trigger points, tendinopathies, activation of muscles and connective tissues, and break down of scar tissues.
