Shockwave Therapy Brisbane

What is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave therapy is a clinically proven, non-invasive treatment used to reduce pain and accelerate healing in a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions. This advanced therapy works by delivering high-energy acoustic sound waves to targeted areas of the body. These waves stimulate blood circulation, enhance cellular regeneration, and promote tissue repair, helping to relieve chronic inflammation and support faster recovery. Shockwave therapy offers a safe, drug-free alternative to surgery and is commonly used to treat conditions that are resistant to other forms of physiotherapy.

Conditions We Treat With Shockwave Therapy Include:

*But not limited to

Plantar Fasciitis

Achilles Tendinopathy

Tennis Elbow

Gluteal Tendinopathy

What To Expect In a Session

Your session will begin with a detailed assessment by one of our experienced physiotherapists to confirm your diagnosis and treatment suitability. The shockwave therapy is then applied to the affected area during your physiotherapy appointment, in conjunction with your regular hands-on therapy and exercise-based rehabilitation.

Initial Assessment: Your physiotherapist will assess your condition, pain levels, and treatment goals before starting treatment.
Targeted Treatment: Shockwave pulses are applied directly to the affected area using a handheld device.
Duration: Sessions typically last 30 minutes and are well-tolerated.
Recovery & Results: Most patients experience improvement after 3–6 sessions, although results may vary depending on the chronicity and severity of the condition.
