Quickly learn how Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) via the Piezowave 2 can break up scar tissue and get your old injuries to heal by stimulating collage production.
Shockwave therapy will turn back time in your tendons, ligaments and joints while increasing range of motion in "stuck" joints of chronically painful areas orthopedic dysfunction.
WHAT IS EXTRACORPOREAL SHOCKWAVE THERAPY?
Sound, in the form of shock waves, can pulverize a kidney stone, shatter glass, view into the body and so much more. Now, the power of sound has reached new heights with extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT).
Maybe you’ve used your joints, tendons and ligaments doing hard mountain biking, running half marathons or just living a sedentary lifestyle. The result could be acute or chronic conditions or overuse injuries. Life can be hard on your body but the application of shockwave therapy is safe and effective. Get rid of the pain and repair the damaged tissue that has resulted from many conditions.
With shockwave therapy, high energy acoustic (sound) shockwaves or high energy shock waves are sent into the treated tissue. Normal tissue ripples like the waves made in water when you throw a stone into a pond. Scar tissue and calcified fibroblasts are brittle and they break in the wake of the waves and high energy micro bubbles that are released in the tissue. This allows for angiogenesis, or blood to come back into the area, and tissue regeneration to take place. Life is literally coming back into the area treated. To even begin to break up scar tissue, before, I used to bruise people with deep pressure massage. The Piezowave 2 is a better more comfortable option that goes deep into the cells of the tissue without the effects of after-pain or bruises.
I’ve operated a chiropractic clinic for over 20 years in San Jose and Los Gatos and when giving chiropractic spinal adjustments people have often locked right back up again. With this non invasive shockwave treatment, joints stay more mobile and lubricated than with just a chiropractic treatment. Even if you are scheduled for a surgery, using shockwave therapy first and beginning to follow our rehab protocols is key. You may just prevent a surgery or give your surgery a high success rate.
