STEMWAVE TREATMENT

What is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave Therapy, or Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (EWST), is a non-invasive treatment that involves the delivery of shockwaves to an injured area to promote healing. This treatment produces highly effective shockwaves that initiate biological regeneration processes at the cellular level.

Treatment involving technology that applies short, frequent, and high intensity bursts of mechanical energy (in the form of a shockwave) into soft-tissue that is injured, scarred, or contains adhesions, is painful, or inflamed.

SHOCKWAVE WORKS BY THESE 3 STEPS

1. PHYSICAL

Generates a large positive pressure wave followed by a negative pressure wave.

2. CHEMICAL

Mechanical stimulus leads to biochemical reactions. Biomolecules are released and cell signaling is activated.

3. BIOLOGICAL

Angiogenesis, inflammatory modulation, stimulation of tissue regeneration.

What types of conditions is STEMWAVE used for?

Chronic Tendinopathies

Chronic tendinopathies represent a group of tendon disorders that persist over time, leading to symptoms like pain, swelling, and reduced functionality, primarily caused by overuse or repetitive strain.

Post-Orthopedic Surgery Rehabilitation

Recovery from orthopedic surgeries—ranging from joint replacements to ligament repairs—can be a slow, challenging process fraught with pain and limited mobility.

Bone Pathologies: Delayed Bone Healing

Delayed bone healing is a condition where fractures do not mend within the expected timeframe, which can extend recovery periods and increase the risk of developing non-union fractures.

Chronic Musculoskeletal Conditions

For the millions suffering from chronic conditions like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and persistent back pain, daily life can become a series of navigations around discomfort and immobility.

Acute Sports Injuries

Injuries such as sprains, muscle strains, and acute ligament tears are prevalent, posing significant challenges to athletes’ careers and active individuals’ lifestyles.

Heel Spur

A heel spur is a calcium deposit causing a bony protrusion on the underside of the heel bone. Often associated with plantar fasciitis, it can result from strain on foot muscles and ligaments, stretching of the plantar fascia, and repeated tearing of the membrane that covers the heel bone.

Plantar Fasciitis

Plantar Fasciitis is characterized by inflammation of the plantar fascia, the thick band of tissue that runs across the bottom of your foot and connects your heel bone to your toes, causing heel pain and stiffness.

Peripheral Neuropathy

Peripheral Neuropathy is when the nerves that are located outside of the brain and spinal cord (peripheral nerves) are damaged. This condition often causes weakness, numbness and pain, usually in the hands and feet.

Tibial Stress Syndrome (Shin Splints)

Tibial Stress Syndrome, widely known as shin splints, results from excessive stress on the shinbone and the tissues attaching the shinbone to the muscles surrounding it. It’s a common issue among runners, athletes, and those with a sudden increase in physical activity.
