What Could I Expect from Treatment?
While shockwave therapy may sound intimidating, it is actually a relatively simple process! Once your area of concern is located, gel is applied to the treatment area. The gel helps facilitate the transfer of energy from the device to your tissues. The device is then applied with gentle pressure to the treatment area to deliver acoustic waves.
