Radial Shockwave Therapy (RSWT)
Non-invasive acoustic wave treatment that breaks calcifications, stimulates tissue regeneration, and provides lasting relief for stubborn tendon injuries.
About This Treatment
Radial Shockwave Therapy delivers acoustic waves to affected tissue, creating microtrauma that triggers the body's healing cascade - increased blood flow, cellular repair, and collagen production. It is particularly effective for chronic tendinopathies that have not responded to exercise or manual therapy alone.
