Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive physiotherapy treatment that uses controlled acoustic pressure waves to deliver mechanical energy to a targeted area of the body.
It is commonly used as part of rehabilitation for certain tendon, muscle and musculoskeletal conditions, particularly when symptoms have persisted despite initial conservative treatment.

What Can Shockwave Therapy Help With?
Shockwave Therapy may be considered for selected patients with:
- Plantar fasciitis / heel pain
- Achilles tendinopathy
- Tennis elbow
- Golfer’s elbow
- Patellar tendinopathy
- Rotator cuff-related tendon pain
- Chronic tendon problems
- Certain muscle and soft-tissue conditions
- Myofascial pain and trigger-point-related problems
The suitability of shockwave therapy depends on the specific diagnosis, duration of symptoms and clinical assessment.
What Are the Potential Benefits?
Depending on the condition, Shockwave Therapy may help:
- Reduce pain
- Improve physical function
- Improve tolerance to movement and activity
- Support rehabilitation of persistent tendon problems
- Reduce local stiffness and discomfort
- Help patients progress with therapeutic exercises
Shockwave therapy has particularly established clinical use for several tendinopathies and plantar fasciitis, although outcomes vary between conditions and individuals.
What Happens During a Session?
- Your physiotherapist assesses the painful area and confirms whether shockwave therapy is appropriate.
- A coupling gel is applied to the skin.
- The applicator is positioned over the treatment area.
- Controlled shockwaves are delivered.
- The intensity is adjusted according to your condition and tolerance.
- Your therapist may combine the treatment with stretching, strengthening and other rehabilitation exercises.
You may feel tapping, pressure or discomfort during treatment. The intensity can usually be adjusted according to your tolerance.
