Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave Therapy with PiezoWave2 – Now Available in Phoenix

Focused shockwave therapy is a revolutionary non-invasive treatment that is becoming more attractive worldwide. It effectively manages pain and heals various tissue problems by harnessing the body’s own natural properties. This therapy offers a safe and effective treatment solution and oftentimes eliminates the need for surgery, steroids, and injections.

It is essential to be aware of the proliferation of subpar machines and treatments that may mislead patients. While shockwave therapy is a powerful healing tool, it’s critically important to choose the right equipment. This is why after extensive research, we’ve chosen the state of the art PiezoWave2 machine for patients of Full Circle Orthopedics and Sports Medicine.

Why Choose Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave therapy stands out as a highly effective and safe alternative to steroids and surgery for pain management and tissue healing. Unlike many other treatment methods, it taps into your body’s innate ability to heal itself. With FDA approval and over 15 years of international and US based clinical studies and real world use, high-intensity shockwave therapy has amassed a wealth of high-quality evidence supporting its efficacy. It offers patients the opportunity to enhance their healing journey, allowing them to dictate their own pace and frequency of treatment.

Beware of Ineffective Treatments:

While shockwave therapy has gained significant attention, it is crucial for patients to discern which machine is best for them.

There are many machines and therapies claiming to provide shockwave treatment that lack proper validation and can even prove harmful. It is essential to exercise caution and remain vigilant when seeking the best treatment. Home machines and certain RADIAL shockwave machines fall under this category, and patients should be wary of their safety and efficacy.

Choosing the highest quality FOCUSED shockwave machine is paramount to ensuring optimal results and a safe treatment experience.

Introducing PiezoWave2 A Cut Above the Rest:

Not all shockwave machines are created equal. At our clinic, we exclusively provide FOCUSED shockwave therapy through the state-of-the-art PiezoWave 2 machine, designed by the renowned Richard Wolf Company in Germany.

This top-of-the-line equipment uses focused sound waves to effectively reduce inflammation long term and heal tissue by promoting growth factors, other healing cells, and improving blood flow. This cellular modulation promotes faster and more complete healing with no side effects except mild soreness.

Unlike RADIAL type shockwave treatment which penetrates superficially, FOCUSED type penetrates deeply to stimulate more complete tissue repair at the site of injury or degeneration.

Unleashing the Power of Focused Shockwave Therapy:

Distinguishing itself from TENS, electrical stimulation, and ultrasound, focused shockwave therapy represents a cutting-edge treatment approach that yields optimal healing responses by penetrating deep within the tissue without causing tissue trauma such as bruising.

Experience Targeted Relief:

The sound waves generated by focused shockwave therapy converge at specific points within the tissue, delivering intense, short-duration pressure pulses that effectively stimulate areas that are challenging to access through other means, such as massage, cupping, and electrical stimulation.

This focused therapy ensures precise targeting of your exact location of tissue injury, maximizing the safety and effectiveness of the treatment.

Key Treatment Goals:

Focused shockwave therapy aims to achieve several critical objectives, including:

  • Converting unhealthy tissue into more healthy tissue.
  • Reducing pain and inflammation.
  • Enhancing overall function.
  • Preventing further damage and the degeneration process.
  • Delaying or eliminating the need for injections, pills, or surgery.
  • Enhancing the effectiveness of complementary treatments like PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) therapy.

A Seamless Treatment Experience:

Focused shockwave therapy offers a convenient and comfortable treatment experience. Each session typically lasts between 7-10 minutes, allowing for quick and efficient treatment during your visit.

It is normal to feel mild soreness for 2-3 days following shockwave treatment. It is also normal to experience mild “shooting pain” while the healing is taking place, especially at nighttime.

There is little to no “downtime” following shockwave treatment. Processed sugar as well as alcohol do not “pair” well with shockwave treatments and may slow down the healing process. These items should be avoided the first 48 hours following treatment in order to optimize the healing response.
