Plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, chronic shoulder pain, and soft tissue injuries that won't heal on their own can respond to shockwave therapy when other treatments have stalled. Novaré Injury Care and Rehab provides Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) using the Intelect RPW 2 system to stimulate natural healing, reduce chronic pain, and restore mobility without surgery or medication.
Shockwave therapy delivers high-energy acoustic waves into injured tissue through a handheld applicator pressed against the skin. The waves create controlled microtrauma at the cellular level, which triggers your body's natural repair response: increased blood flow, new blood vessel formation, and accelerated tissue regeneration.
Each session lasts 10 to 15 minutes. Most patients need 3 to 6 sessions spaced a week apart. The treatment can be intense during the session but the discomfort is brief and manageable.
Because injuries don't always respond to adjustments alone. Shockwave therapy targets the soft tissue damage that chiropractic adjustments can't reach directly.
Acoustic waves disrupt adhesions and scar tissue that restrict movement and cause chronic pain. This is especially effective for injuries that have plateaued with other treatments.
The controlled microtrauma triggers angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, which brings more oxygen and nutrients to the injured area.
Shockwave therapy is non-invasive and doesn't require anesthesia, medication, or recovery time. You can return to normal activities after each session.
At Novaré, shockwave therapy is often combined with chiropractic adjustments and Class IV laser therapy for a multi-modality approach to stubborn injuries.
Shockwave therapy is most effective for chronic soft tissue conditions that haven't responded to other conservative treatments.
