Shockwave Therapy at Advanced Chiropractic
Advanced Solutions for Stubborn Pain
When chronic pain lingers despite rest, rehab, or other therapies, radial shockwave therapy can help reset your body’s natural healing process. At Advanced Chiropractic, we use this advanced, non-invasive treatment to target stubborn conditions and support tissue repair—without injections or surgery.
Science Behind the Sound Waves
Shockwave therapy delivers thousands of high-energy acoustic impulses deep into the affected tissue. This stimulates blood flow, breaks up scar tissue, and promotes new cell growth. It’s a powerful tool for helping your body repair itself, especially in areas that haven’t responded to other care.
What to Expect During Treatment
Your session begins with positioning the affected area comfortably before applying a special gel to improve wave transmission. Our technician will then use a handheld device to deliver acoustic impulses to the target area. You’ll feel a tapping sensation similar to a massage tool, with the intensity adjusted for your comfort level. Most sessions last 15-20 minutes, with treatments typically scheduled once weekly for six to twelve weeks. While some patients may experience mild soreness after a session, this usually subsides quickly as healing begins.

This therapy is excellent for treating
- stubborn plantar fasciitis
