Shock Wave Therapy Chester

Shock wave therapy is now available at our Chester physiotherpy clinc, and is an exciting new non-invasive procedure for the treatment of many physical disorders including plantar fasciitis, tendonitis and Achilles tendonitis.

What is shock wave therapy?

Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) is a non-invasive treatment that involves passing shock waves through your skin to the affected area. High-frequency sound waves are used to physically vibrate and agitate musculoskeletal tissues. It is a highly effective procedure to treat pain and restore mobility with minimal risks or side effects.

It is clinically proven that pressure waves, when applied to injured tissues, stimulate metabolic reactions:

  • Reduction of pain felt by nerve fibres
  • Increase of blood circulation in surrounding soft tissues
  • Beginning of healing process triggered by stem cells activation
