Shockwave Therapy uses radial pressure waves which are acoustic waves that generate oscillations in the tissue which can help reduce muscle pain and activate connective tissue. The goal is to temporarily aid in the increase in blood flow which can help reduce pain in various musculoskeletal conditions.
Radial Pressure Wave treatment may cause soreness along with a thumping sensation as the treatment head passes over the dysfunctional tissue. Minor soreness post treatment is not uncommon.
