Shockwave Therapy (SWT)
Focused acoustic sound waves, delivered through the skin with a handheld device, to address pain in muscles, tendons and joints. Used as one part of a plan with hands-on care and exercise.
May be used for tendon pain such as tennis elbow or Achilles tendinopathy, plantar fasciitis, and calcific tendonitis of the shoulder. Offered at our Irvine clinic with a PiezoWave² unit.
