Shockwave therapy
Shockwave therapy treatments are offered at LivWell.
It is recommended to have 3-5 sessions of shockwave, with a frequency of 1x per week
What is shockwave therapy?
​
Shockwave therapy utilizes high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate the body's natural healing response. These waves are applied externally to the affected area, penetrating into the tissue. This stimulation promotes increased blood flow, the formation of new blood vessels, and the release of growth factors, ultimately aiding in tissue regeneration and pain relief.​
