Piezoelectric Shockwave

Piezoelectric shockwave therapy sends focused acoustic pulses into injured tissue to increase cell function and remodel connective tissue. It is a non-invasive option for chronic musculoskeletal pain that has not responded to rest or other care, and it works without the scar tissue and long recovery that can follow surgery.

Focused pulses reach scar tissue and calcified areas inside a tendon or ligament. The stimulus restarts a stalled healing response, so the body lays down healthier tissue in its place. It is focused shockwave, not radial or air-pressure shock therapy.

At Go 4 Recovery, Shockwave is commonly used for: plantar fasciitis, achilles and other tendon pain, tennis and golfer's elbow, chronic soft-tissue injuries, scar tissue and calcification. Your plan is set after an evaluation, so the therapies you receive depend on the injury and your goals.

It depends on the condition, how long you have had it and your goals. Chronic problems usually need a longer plan than recent injuries. The team outlines the expected number of sessions at your consultation and adjusts it as you respond.

Coverage varies by provider and plan, so check with your insurer for details. Send a message through the contact form or email support@go4recovery.com and the team will walk you through the options.
