Shockwave Therapy in Kent: Effective Treatment for Pain

 Shockwave therapy is a highly effective and non-invasive treatment for soft tissue and sports-related injuries like tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, shin splints, plantar fasciitis and torn achilles tendons (achilles tendinitis). It works via a hand-held machine that passes high intensity acoustic energy through the skin to the specific areas of pain and damage. The shockwaves are low-energy sound waves that you can hear, and they increase blood flow in the damaged area. This breaks down scar tissue and tissue damage, allowing the body to heal naturally.

Shockwave is highly effective for persistent tendon pain and it works in two ways. The shockwaves work to desensitise the nerve endings, and this often results in immediate pain relief. They also cause microscopic damage to the scar tissues to which the body responds by increasing blood flow in the area, activating your body’s own healing process.
