Shockwave Therapy in San Antonio

Have you tried surgery and prescription medications to manage your pain with little to no success? Then it’s time to turn to natural, drug-free treatments for relief, like shockwave therapy. Our shockwave therapy treatments at South Texas Chiropractic in San Antonio could be the perfect solution to alleviating your discomfort, raising your quality of life, and enhancing your well-being.

What is shockwave therapy?

Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive medical treatment that uses advanced technology to treat the symptoms of conditions like frozen shoulder, rotator cuff tears, plantar fasciitis, chronic pain patters, scapular adhesions, trigger points, achilles tendonitis, and other musculoskeletal disorders. Patients typically need to attend multiple sessions to experience the full benefits, but many will notice a decrease in pain after their first appointment. You can talk to your chiropractor at South Texas Chiropractic to plan your shockwave therapy treatment.

How does shockwave therapy work?

Shockwave therapy utilizes a series of sound waves to penetrate up to two inches deep into soft tissue. The acoustic wave disrupts fibrous adhesions, promotes cellular regeneration, tissue repair, and other essential components of the healing process in order to speed up your recovery time. South Texas Chiropractic employs the Intelect Mobile 2 RPW, which is outfitted with Chattanooga Radial Pressure Wave technology. The sound waves are applied to the exterior of your body via a handheld electromagnetic device.

What are the benefits of shockwave therapy?

Shockwave therapy is an excellent alternative to prescription medications and invasive surgical procedures that can be accompanied by lengthy recovery periods. The process is entirely non-invasive, with the handheld device only used on the outside of your skin.

In addition, treatments are NOT entirely painless, and your medical practitioner at South Texas Chiropractic can adjust the level of pressure according to your comfort levels. Depending on your individual needs, shockwave therapy can be combined with other modalities and treatments to provide you with optimal results, such as chiropractic, percussion massage, and spinal decompression. Your chiropractor will work with you to develop a customized treatment plan.
