Understanding Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy is a way to treat musculoskeletal and extremity injuries without surgery. It sends acoustic sound waves into the injured area using ultrasound gel as a medium. These waves come out of the shockwave therapy wand and penetrate deep into the joint, cartilage, tendons and ligaments to stimulate healing.
Its main job is to help your body heal faster. The shockwave therapy treatment promotes the body's ability to heal. This includes better blood flow, faster metabolism, oxygenation, and growth factors that help fix tissues. The reduction in inflammation and improvement in circulation helps heal damaged tissues and get you moving better again.
Shockwave therapy is great because it does not require surgery or medication of any kind. It helps heal with very few risks or side effects. In comparison to invasive procedures such as surgeries, shockwave therapy helps you avoid the down time and side effects that usually accompanies mainstream medical procedures.
Choosing the right healthcare provider is key for this treatment. Finding a health care practitioner who know how to map the injured area properly is important. At Kingwood Chiropractic they do a diagnostic thermal scan of the knee, shoulder, foot, to see the severity of inflammation. Dr. Hamel will then set the best wave strength, the number of pulses and let you know a specific treatment plan laying out how often you need the treatment.
Learning about how shockwave therapy works and how it stimulates the body to heal is important for you. This shockwave therapy is a good choice for many injuries and pains especially if you are someone who does not want to get surgery.
Benefits of Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy helps more than just relieving pain. It helps speed up healing. This is good for sports injuries, acute pain, chronic pain, if you don't want a surgical procedure done at all or you are trying to hold off on surgery for as long as possible. We have patients, says Dr. Hamel that know they eventually will get a knee replacement, but they are very active and they want to hold of on surgery for as long as they can.
Accelerates Recovery and Healing
Shockwaves help the body heal faster when it comes to damaged or injured tissues such as meniscus tears, rotator cuff syndrome, frozen shoulder or plantar fasciitis. The therapy brings more blood and oxygen to the injured area, helping to make new tissue grow quicker, heal up and get you back to living a pain free life again.
It also helps make collagen, the acoustic sound waves help recruit local stem cells to lay down collagen and fix damaged tissues. We you can heal damaged tissues, tendinitis and osteoarthritis, patients are now able to move their shoulder and knees better and get back to being active again.
