Diagnostic visit
First we make sure shockwave is the right tool. A clinical assessment, often with diagnostic ultrasound referral if indicated, confirms tendinopathy vs. other causes.
Overview
Radial shockwave therapy delivers pulses of acoustic energy into a precisely targeted area of tissue. The result is a controlled micro-trauma that stimulates blood flow, breaks up adhesions, and kick-starts the body's own healing in tissues that have stopped responding on their own.
It's not a magic bullet — but for plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinopathy, and chronic tennis or golfers elbow, the evidence is strong and our results are excellent. We pair every session with rehab so the tissue gets loaded the right way as it heals.
Delivered by registered physiotherapists or chiropractors. Covered under most extended-health plans.
What to expect
First we make sure shockwave is the right tool. A clinical assessment, often with diagnostic ultrasound referral if indicated, confirms tendinopathy vs. other causes.
Each shockwave session is 15–25 minutes. Treatment is intense but tolerable; mild residual soreness for 24–48 hours is normal.
Shockwave is the catalyst; loaded rehab is the cure. We integrate eccentric and heavy slow-resistance protocols throughout the treatment block.
