Shockwave Therapy

Radial extra corporeal shockwave therapy (RSWT) is an intense form of localized physical therapy in which an injured site such as your heel, is bombarded with a series of acoustic waves to stimulate a strong response in your body­­­ to heal an injured area.

In layman’s terms, shockwave therapy improves metabolism by facilitating the growth of new blood vessels. This, in turn, accelerates the healing process by activating cell generation and helping to dissolve calcium deposits. An additional benefit of shockwave therapy is the sustained analgesic effect to the injured site which will make you feel more comfortable.

Whilst shockwave therapy has been shown to be effective in the treatment of many parts of your body, SWT has been shown to help in the recovery of many of the painful conditions that can afflict your feet.

We provide the Swiss Dolorclast radial shockwave method at both our Brunswick and Sandringham rooms as this therapy has been proven to be an effective treatment for damaged soft tissue and the strengthening of bone.If you suffer from arch pain, heel pain, plantar fasciitis, heel spur syndrome, plantar plate tears, tibialis anterior and posterior enthesopathy, tendo achilles tendinosis you should contact us to make an appointment because our shockwave therapy can help you. Our podiatrists will perform a thorough assessment of your feet to determine whether or not SWT is a suitable option for you. The average number of treatments required is 3 over the course of 3 weeks.
