Do you have a chronic musculoskeletal condition or injury that hasn't responded to other treatments? Are you worried that you may need surgery or other medical intervention? Even if you have had surgery or injections but still seem to be suffering from lingering symptoms, Shockwave Therapy may be able to help.

Shockwave Therapy is an innovative treatment that Dr. Hancock and the team at Hancock Chiropractic use to help patients find relief from musculoskeletal pain and improve mobility. Using high-energy acoustic waves directed at areas of pain or dysfunction, shockwave therapy promotes healing in tissues that have not responded to other forms of treatment.

Shockwave Therapy

What is Electrohydraulic Shockwave Therapy?

Electrohydraulic Shockwave Therapy works by using a special handheld device that sends energy waves into the area of your body that's in pain. These shockwaves stimulate your cells to start healing. The process helps reduce pain and swelling, virtually melts away scar tissue, while also helping to repair damaged tissues like muscles, bones, and blood vessels. Additionally, the shockwaves activate your body’s stem cells, which are key in healing and growing new tissues. This therapy encourages your body to heal itself more effectively and recover faster.

As a non-surgical approach, shockwave therapy is well-tolerated by patients and requires no anesthesia or recovery time, making it convenient and effective.

What conditions can shockwave therapy help treat?

Shockwave therapy can be particularly effective for individuals experiencing chronic pain and musculoskeletal injuries. At Hancock Chiropractic, the team uses shockwave therapy to treat conditions such as:

  • plantar fasciitis, heel spur, and foot pain
  • tennis elbow and elbow pain
  • rotator cuff injuries, frozen shoulder, and calcific shoulder tendinitis
  • knee sprain/strain and pain
  • carpal tunnel syndrome and wrist pain
  • chronic back and neck pain, as well as for patients with limited mobility or stiffness due to muscle adhesions.

Shockwave therapy addresses the root cause of the pain, which enables patients to experience lasting relief and improved quality of life.

What can I expect from shockwave therapy?

During a shockwave therapy session at Hancock Chiropractic, patients can expect to lie comfortably while Dr. Hancock applies a gel to the treatment area and uses a handheld device to delivers the shockwaves.

Each session lasts between 5 and 10 minutes, depending on the area being treated. To achieve optimal results, most patients require a series of treatments spaced over several weeks. This all depends on the nature and location of the injury. 

While some patients may feel minor discomfort during treatment, it is generally well-tolerated and causes no lasting pain. Many experience reduced pain and improved range of motion after just a few sessions.

Shockwave therapy is an excellent treatment option for individuals seeking relief from pain without surgery or medication.
