Reminding Your Body to Heal Itself

Shockwave therapy was first developed by a doctor in Toronto, who discovered that it could break kidney stones into smaller pieces that were easier to pass without pain.

Our Physiotherapists and Chiropodist use this research-backed technique to break up injured tissue. This sends a signal to the brain that the body has suffered a new trauma and needs to start healing. The resulting inflammatory response promotes the growth of new blood vessels and helps the affected area heal.

Long-Term Healing

During a therapy session, the practitioner uses a handheld machine to transmit a wave of energy to affected tissues. This creates a feeling of consistent tapping. Patients usually describe this experience as uncomfortable, but not painful. This short-term discomfort results in long-term relief. Breaking up damaged tissue allows your body to regenerate strong, healthy structures again.
