Shockwave is a new effective treatment for musculoskeletal issues. It is also known as pulse wave, pressure wave, or EPAT. Shockwave works by accelerating the recovery of injured or unhealthy tissue by increasing neovascularization (new blood vessel growth) thereby improving circulation. Shockwave is also said to work by migrating the body's own stem cells into the injured area to lay down new healthy tissue. The force generated by the shockwave works to break up scar tissue both superficially and deep in the body. Studies show shockwave therapy significantly improves pain, function, and quality of life.
World class institutions are using shockwave therapy technology such as Cleveland Clinic, Johns Hopkins University, Mount Sinai Hospital and Duke University. At Frisco Spinal Rehab, we’re proud to offer shockwave therapy for pain as part of our commitment to cutting-edge, non-invasive care for our Frisco community.
