Without getting too technical, Shockwave is an FDA listed medical device that uses harmless, yet powerful acoustic waves to activate the body’s natural healing mechanisms. This non-invasive treatment option was designed to help patients dealing with musculoskeletal conditions related to pain and inflammation.

When these waves penetrate damaged tissue or areas of inflammation, they activate a natural response within the body as if a new injury has occurred. This immediately kickstarts the biological healing process by sending healing agents to help reduce inflammation and repair damaged tissue in the injured area. Ultimately, the goal of this treatment is to “awaken” dormant cells that are critical for healing - without the need for invasive procedures or medication.

Our dedicated Shockwave therapists will conduct an interactive consultation, discussing more about Shockwave, your goals, and expectations regarding your specific case. At the start of the treatment, we utilize the device as a diagnostic tool, gliding over the injured area to identify the primary location(s) of pain. Once located, we focus the remainder of the treatment on that area to maximize the positive biological effects.

Although some patients feel immediate improvement after one visit, this is not a “one-and-done” treatment solution. Subsequent treatments are required to further the process of healing and achieve lasting results. Based on your specific goals and expectations provided, our therapists will put together a recommended care plan that best suits your needs. Care plans commonly range betwee 8-12 sessions. Patients typically experience significant progress after 3-4 treatments, however, we often see a noticeable improvement after the first treatment. Subsequent treatments that follow will offer continual improvement and sustained results.

Shockwave Therapy is a regenerative treatment that enhances blood flow to key areas while actively reducing inflammation and addressing it’s root cause. Unlike temporary fixes or "cover-up" treatments, Shockwave promotes true healing at a deeper level. It’s powerful ability to accelerate recovery and fix it right the first time makes it a game changer for competitive athletes looking to perform at their best. Shockwave Therapy has been shown to increase recovery times by 33% after injury or surgery. Shave weeks or months off of your recovery time and get back to training and competing. Combining manual therapy, functional rehab, and shockwave therapy is the most thorough way to keep you performing at your best.

Don’t be old! Feeling older often means dealing with stiffness and pain. Shockwave Therapy effectively reduces both, helping you feel and move more like your younger self. This regenerative treatment restores joints, muscles, and tendons to a healthier state, promoting pain-free movement. Since staying active is essential for overall health, addressing pain proactively is crucial. If exercise causes discomfort, advanced therapies like Shockwave can help by stimulating tissue regeneration and reducing inflammation. Whether you’re dealing with arthritis, tendonitis, or bursitis, Shockwave Therapy supports healing and keeps you moving with ease.

At Core, we believe in a natural approach to healing whenever possible—that’s why we’re passionate about Shockwave Therapy. This cutting-edge treatment uses mechanical waves to stimulate your body's natural repair process, just as it would after an injury. The best part? It triggers powerful healing without causing any damage, giving you all the benefits with none of the side effects.

If you’re looking to avoid or delay surgery due to a degenerative condition, Shockwave Therapy could be the solution you need—especially when combined with manual therapy at Core PT. Many of our patients have successfully postponed or even canceled surgery by choosing this regenerative approach. By boosting blood flow and reducing the damaging effects of inflammation, Shockwave Therapy supports healing and helps restore pain-free movement, giving you a non-invasive path to relief and improved function.

Bone-on-bone knee arthritis is the most treated condition at Core PT. Before Shockwave Therapy, the only way to provide functional improvement and pain relief for bone- on-bone arthritis was a knee replacement. With Shockwave Therapy, you have options. Your knees will begin feeling better immediately without suffering through the surgery or continued decline of your knees. It is proven? You bet! A recent study showed that patients with Grade 4 knee OA (bone on bone) reported an 81.92% increase in function after a course of Shockwave Therapy. 81.92% with NO downtime, surgery or increase in pain!
