Shockwave therapy, or Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Treatment (EPAT®), is a proven, effective treatment for both acute and chronic foot, ankle, and lower leg injuries. Treatments are non-invasive and involve using sound waves to increase blood flow to the treatment area. This increase in blood flow to soft tissues accelerates your body’s natural healing process, without needing surgery. Over time, cells and tissues regenerate, often making the treated area stronger than it was in the first place.
Treatments have been proven to be beneficial for improving:
- Plantar fasciitis
- Heel pain
- Achilles tendinitis
- Sports injuries
- Joint stiffness
- Scar formation
- Sprained ankles
