Are you tired of living with chronic pain?

Yes, shockwave therapy is generally considered safe when administered by trained healthcare professionals. It's a non-surgical and non-invasive procedure, which means there is no risk of infection or scarring associated with it. However, like any medical treatment, there may be some mild side effects, such as temporary discomfort or redness at the treatment site, but these are usually short-lived.

Shockwave therapy is effective for various musculoskeletal conditions, including but not limited to:

• Plantar fasciitis
• Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis)
• Golfers elbow (medial epicondylitis)
• Achilles tendinopathy
• Rotator cuff tendinopathy
• Hip bursitis
• Chronic back pain (trigger points)
• Shin splints

Your healthcare provider will assess your specific condition to determine if shockwave therapy is an appropriate treatment option.

The number of shockwave therapy sessions required can vary depending on the condition being treated and your individual response to the treatment. Typically, a series of 3-5 sessions spaced about one week apart may be recommended. Some people experience improvement after just one session, while others may require more. Recovery time is minimal, and you can typically resume normal activities immediately after each session, although you may be advised to avoid strenuous exercise for a short period.

 Insurance coverage for shockwave therapy can vary depending on your insurance provider and your specific policy. Some insurance plans may cover the cost of shockwave therapy if it's considered medically necessary and prescribed by a healthcare provider. It's essential to check with your insurance company to understand your coverage and any potential out-of-pocket expenses.
