What is shockwave? Shockwave is an acoustic wave that carries high energy to painful spots and muscles. This energy promotes the regeneration of tendons and other soft tissues.
Treatments last 10-15 minutes and results can be felt within 3-4 treatments. Our Rockford and Kentwood clinic uses the Dolorcast system, which is the same system that is employed by Mayo Clinic.
Chronically painful conditions such as plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonosis, rotator cuff dysfunction, and tennis elbow that haven’t responded well to traditional treatment may respond to this type of treatment.
I get to see MY physical therapist each visit. What I like the most is the quality people they hire. From techs to therapists to those behind the desk, there’s always a smile and a hello. It’s like going to the gym with a few good friends.
