Is Shockwave Therapy Right for You?
If your pain has lasted more than 3 months and other treatments haven't worked, shockwave therapy may help.
Plantar fasciitis
Heel pain that's worse in the morning or after sitting — one of the most-treated conditions with shockwave therapy.
Achilles tendinopathy
Chronic stiffness or pain at the back of the ankle that limits walking, running, or daily movement.
Tennis or golfer's elbow
Persistent elbow pain that hasn't responded to rest, bracing, or physiotherapy exercises alone.
Knee pain
Patellar tendinopathy, IT band syndrome, or runner's knee — common in active patients and office workers alike.
Shoulder tendinopathy
Calcific tendinitis, rotator cuff issues, or frozen shoulder — particularly where calcification is present.
Chronic lower back pain
Myofascial trigger points, deep muscle tension, and spasm that have persisted despite other treatment.
What Is Shockwave Therapy?
Effective relief for stubborn pain — without surgery or injections.

UNDERSTANDING THE TREATMENT
Shockwave therapy is a clinically supported, non-invasive treatment for persistent musculoskeletal problems — especially where healing has slowed or stalled.
During treatment, a handheld device delivers high-energy acoustic pulses to the affected area. These waves stimulate blood flow, break down scar tissue and calcification, and activate your body's natural healing response.
For many patients, this means less pain, easier movement, and better function — over a course of sessions, without medication or downtime.
4,000 Pulses per Session
£70
How treatment is measured
Shockwave therapy is calibrated by pulse count (typically 4,000 pulses per session), not by time — ensuring a precise, consistent therapeutic dose every session. Each session takes approximately 15 minutes.
Clinical evidence
NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) has deemed shockwave therapy safe, with studies showing effectiveness in 60–80% of chronic tendinopathy cases.
How Does Shockwave Therapy Work?
Three stages of healing — from stimulation to tissue regeneration.

2
Shockwave Stimulation
High-energy acoustic pulses are delivered to the affected tissue through a handheld applicator, targeting the precise area of damage.
Healing Activation
The waves increase blood flow and stimulate cellular repair, breaking down scar tissue and calcification that block natural recovery.
Tissue Regeneration
Over several sessions, damaged tissue rebuilds and pain gradually reduces as function improves. Full results develop over 6–12 weeks.
