Shockwave Therapy uses acoustic energy to stimulate tissue response in areas affected by chronic pain, tendon irritation, and stubborn soft tissue conditions. It is often used when symptoms have not fully improved with rest or basic care alone.
At K.A.R.E. Physiotherapy, shockwave therapy is applied as part of a broader recovery plan that may include assessment, education, mobility work, and strengthening.
The goal is to support tissue healing, reduce sensitivity, and improve your ability to move, load, and function with greater confidence.
Your therapist will first assess the painful area, review symptom history, and determine whether shockwave therapy is appropriate for your condition. Treatment is targeted to the affected tissue and adjusted based on tolerance.
During treatment, you may feel a tapping or pulsing sensation over the area being treated. Sessions are typically brief and are often combined with exercise or loading strategies to support longer-term recovery.
Shockwave therapy is commonly used to support recovery in chronic tendon and soft tissue conditions. When paired with guided rehabilitation, it can help reduce pain sensitivity, improve tissue tolerance, and support a more active recovery plan.
We assess your symptoms, tissue sensitivity, and recovery history to confirm whether shockwave is appropriate.
Acoustic pulses are applied directly to the affected area using settings matched to your tolerance.
Treatment is paired with movement, loading, or strengthening guidance when appropriate.
We track pain response, mobility, and function over the course of care.
Shockwave therapy may help stubborn soft tissue and tendon conditions respond when paired with a structured physiotherapy plan.
Targeted support for chronic pain, tendon irritation, and tissue recovery.
