Relieve Pain and Restore Mobility with Shockwave Therapy

 

At Cityside Chiropractic Center, we’re always striving to bring our patients the most effective and innovative treatments for musculoskeletal pain. One of the therapies we’re proud to offer is shockwave therapy using the cutting-edge PiezoWave² system. If you’re dealing with persistent foot, knee, or shoulder discomfort, this might be the solution you’ve been searching for.

 

What Is Shockwave Therapy?

 

Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic waves to stimulate the body’s natural healing process. These waves improve blood flow, reduce inflammation, and break up scar tissue, leading to decreased pain and improved mobility. It’s a safe and effective option for people struggling with chronic musculoskeletal conditions, particularly those who haven’t found relief with traditional treatments.

The PiezoWave² system we use at Cityside Chiropractic is among the most advanced shockwave therapy machines available. Its precision and versatility allow us to target problem areas with pinpoint accuracy, ensuring optimal results for each patient.

 

Conditions Treated with Shockwave Therapy

 

While shockwave therapy can address various musculoskeletal issues, it’s particularly effective for:

• Back Pain: Helps alleviate chronic lower back pain and promotes healing in injured or strained muscles.

• Hip Pain: Addresses conditions like bursitis and tendonitis, which can cause discomfort in the hip area.

• Plantar Fasciitis and Heel Pain: Whether it’s from prolonged standing, running, or other causes, foot pain can be debilitating. Shockwave therapy stimulates healing in the plantar fascia, reducing inflammation and pain.

• Knee Pain: From tendonitis to chronic joint discomfort, shockwave therapy promotes tissue regeneration and can help alleviate knee pain caused by overuse or injury.

• Shoulder Pain: Conditions like rotator cuff injuries, frozen shoulder, or calcific tendonitis respond well to shockwave therapy, helping to restore mobility and reduce discomfort.

 

What to Expect During Treatment

 

Each shockwave therapy session lasts approximately 15 minutes. Most patients find the treatment to be tolerable, with some describing it as a deep, therapeutic massage. For optimal results, we recommend one session per week for 5 to 6 weeks. Many patients notice significant improvement even before completing the full course of treatment.

The best part? There’s no downtime! After your session, you can go about your day as usual, making it a convenient option for busy lifestyles.
