Shockwave Therapy

At Everest Health, we offer shockwave therapy to help relieve pain and promote healing. This non-invasive treatment uses high-energy sound waves to target injured or painful areas, stimulating the body’s natural healing process.

Whether you’re dealing with chronic pain or recovering from an injury, our shockwave therapy can help you get back to feeling your best. Trust our experienced team members to provide the care you need to achieve optimal health.

How Does Shockwave Therapy Work?

During a shockwave therapy treatment, a handheld device delivers controlled, high-energy acoustic waves to the affected area. These waves penetrate deep into the tissues, stimulating cellular repair and enhancing circulation. The increased blood flow promotes oxygenation and nutrient delivery, supporting the body’s ability to heal damaged ligaments, tendons, and muscles.

Many patients experience significant pain relief and improved function after just a few sessions. Unlike surgical procedures or long-term medication use, extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) offers a natural, drug-free solution. With minimal downtime this therapy allows you to continue your daily activities without disruption.

Experience the difference

Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses high-energy sound waves to stimulate healing, reduce pain, and enhance mobility. It promotes faster recovery by increasing blood flow, breaking down scar tissue, and accelerating tissue regeneration. This therapy is particularly effective for treating chronic conditions and injuries, offering a drug-free solution with minimal side effects.
