Tendon pain that sticks around longer than 6 weeks? Shockwave is your acceleration button—if applied correctly.

Shockwave isn't a silver bullet. It shines when we combine tissue loading, manual therapy, and progressive rehab.

When We Recommend Shockwave

  • Chronic plantar fasciitis or Achilles tendinopathy unresponsive to exercises.
  • Calcific shoulder tendinopathy alongside Class IV laser to dissolve deposits.
  • Patellar tendinopathy in athletes who need to stay in-season.

"Clinical studies show up to 80% pain reduction within 4 sessions when protocols are individualized."
