Shockwave Therapy: Advanced Pain Relief & Accelerated Healing
Transform Your Recovery with Non-Invasive Treatment
Experience breakthrough pain relief with Shockwave Therapy (ESWT). This advanced, non-invasive treatment accelerates natural healing for chronic pain and stubborn injuries, providing fast, effective relief when traditional methods fall short.

How Shockwave Therapy Works
Shockwave therapy harnesses the power of precisely targeted acoustic waves to stimulate your body’s natural healing processes. These waves increase blood flow to injured areas, break down problematic scar tissue, and reduce chronic inflammation. The treatment triggers the formation of new blood vessels while accelerating tissue regeneration, leading to faster and more effective healing.
Conditions We Treat
Our shockwave therapy is particularly effective for chronic tendon problems, including
- Achilles tendinopathy
- Tennis and golfer’s elbow
- Rotator cuff issues
- Plantar fasciitis
- Jumper’s knee.
We also successfully treat various muscle conditions such as chronic tension, trigger points, and myofascial pain syndrome. The therapy has shown excellent results for joint and bone issues, including shoulder calcification, hip pain, heel spurs, and stress fractures.

The Benefits of Choosing Shockwave Therapy
One of the most appealing aspects of shockwave therapy is its non-invasive nature – there’s no need for surgery or injections. Most patients notice significant improvement within 3-4 sessions, and the results are long-lasting. The treatment itself is quick, typically taking just 15-20 minutes per session, and you can return to your daily activities immediately afterward.
Your Treatment Journey
We begin with a comprehensive assessment to understand your condition and develop a personalised treatment plan. Most patients require between 3-6 sessions for optimal results. During each session, our experienced physiotherapy and sports therapy team uses state-of-the-art equipment to deliver precise treatment, ensuring the best possible outcomes for your specific condition.
Integrated Treatment Approach
For optimal results, we often combine shockwave therapy with our other advanced treatments. This might include sessions in our NovoTHOR Light Pod, PBM LASER treatment, or rehabilitation using our AlterG anti-gravity treadmill. This comprehensive approach helps ensure the fastest possible recovery and the best long-term outcomes.
Proven Success Rates
Our shockwave therapy has demonstrated an impressive 80% success rate for chronic conditions. Most patients experience significant pain reduction within their first few sessions, and many find long-term relief from persistent symptoms that haven’t responded to other treatments. This success often means patients can avoid more invasive procedures like surgery.
