Shockwave Therapy: The Answer to Chronic Tendon Pain
We’ve got some exciting news! Our brand-new Shockwave Therapy machine has arrived at Invicta Health & Performance – and it’s already helping people recover from long-standing pain and chronic tendon injuries.
What is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave Therapy uses pressure waves (not electricity!) to stimulate your body’s natural healing process. It’s completely non-invasive, drug-free, and proven to work on stubborn injuries that don’t always respond to rest, treatment or rehabilitation.
The Science (made simple):
- Less Pain: Research shows Shockwave Therapy can cut pain levels almost in half for conditions like plantar fasciitis (heel pain), tennis elbow, and Achilles tendon problems.
- Better Healing: It increases blood flow and encourages new tissue growth and remodelling, helping your body repair itself faster.
- Long-Lasting Results: Studies found the benefits last for up to a year or more – much longer than cortisone injections in many cases.
- Evidence Based Adjunct: Research shows that patients can optimise their recovery when Shockwave is used in conjunction with physiotherapy for chronic tendon injuries.
Common Conditions Shockwave Helps With:
- Plantar Fasciitis
- Achilles Tendinopathy
- Patella Tendinopathy
- Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome
- Gluteal Tendinopathy
- Tennis Elbow & Golfer Elbow
- Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy (with or without calcium deposits)
… and much more!
