How does Shockwave Therapy/TREATMENT Work?

The unique technology uses pressure waves that are delivered to the damaged tissue.

The damaged tissue that causes pain will begin to regenerate because of increased blood flow created by the treatments.

This hand-held device allows Motion Physical Therapy providers to address tendon, muscle, and interstitial pain, providing relief for our patients.

Many patients see an improvement in their pain levels after as few as one or two sessions of Shockwave Therapy.
