Shockwave Therapy

Synergy Foot and Ankle prides itself on its commitment to the most cutting-edge solutions available. We’re pleased to offer shockwave therapy, a highly advanced and non-surgical solution that can alleviate an impressive number of painful foot and ankle conditions.

How Does Shockwave Therapy Work?

Using pressure waves, tissues that were previously damaged can be stimulated to increase their metabolism, improve circulation, and effectively break down scar tissue in the treatment area. The damaged tissue then slowly regenerates and heals. Radial Pulse Wave Therapy can be used for Achilles tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, painful scars, and other musculoskeletal conditions.

What to Expect from Your Treatment

Radial Pulse Wave Therapy is performed in the exam room and no anesthesia is required. After determining your specific areas of pain, pressure waves are introduced through a handpiece at varying pressures.

This treatment typically consists of three sessions, spaced seven days apart. Each treatment lasts for about 10 to 15 minutes, and some patients require additional sessions if the pain is of chronic nature. During your consultation, we’ll help you get a clear sense of the treatments that will be required to find relief, and we’ll work with you to set up a plan that works alongside your existing schedule.

Benefits of Radial Pulse Wave Therapy

The main reason our patients love shockwave therapy? It accomplishes incredible results without any kind of surgical intervention or the downtime that might come with it. For certain issues with the feet and ankles, shockwave therapy can create impressive results, without requiring that our patients take any time away from their busy schedules or daily routines, apart from the rest and relaxation required to heal the issue.

Enjoying Your Results

Although some patients do experience pain relief early on in treatment, it can take up to four weeks, with regular treatments, before any significant amount of relief is experienced. Before this time, though, you can rest assured that the treatment is working hard to alleviate your issues! Our patients typically find the full benefits of the procedure are seen after about eight to 12 weeks, with 80% of patients who have received full treatment experiencing complete resolution of (or at least a very significant improvement to) their pain.
