SHOCKWAVE THERAY AT CLINIQUE TAG

Shockwave therapy is often used in the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders or injuries involving connective soft tissues such as ligaments and tendons, as well as pain in the bones, heel, and joints.

Shockwave technology uses high energy mechanical acoustic impulses or sound waves to eliminate pain, restore mobility, improve blood circulation to regenerate damaged tissue and stimulate the body’s healing process.

Treatment is targeted to damaged tissue using a hand-held applicator and can improve the breakdown of adhesions, scar tissue and calcifications.

• Chronic musculoskeletal pain
