Discover The Power Of Acoustic Wave Therapy

 
 
 
 

Are you struggling with chronic pain that hasn’t improved with traditional treatments? At Great Lakes Spine and Sport, we’re thrilled to introduce Acoustic Wave Therapy (aka Shockwave Therapy) to our suite of advanced services. This cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment is designed to help patients overcome stubborn conditions and return to their active lives faster.

What Is Acoustic Wave Therapy?

Acoustic Wave Therapy uses sound, or pressure waves, to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes. Though new to many, this technology has been widely used in the medical field for over 40 years to address a variety of musculoskeletal issues. From breaking down kidney stones to treating tendon problems, it is proven to be highly effective.

Now, Acoustic Wave Therapy is revolutionizing the treatment of chronic musculoskeletal conditions, including:

  • Plantar fasciitis

  • Achilles tendonitis

  • Patellar tendinopathy

  • Tennis and golfer’s elbow

  • Trigger finger

  • Calf and Hamstring Strains

  • Biceps Tendinopathy

  • Gluteal Tendinopathy

  • De Quervain’s Tenosynovitis

How Does It Work?

Acoustic Wave Therapy works by delivering high-energy sound waves to targeted areas of the body. These waves trigger a cascade of beneficial effects:

  1. Stimulates Collagen Repair: Collagen is essential for strong and healthy tendons and muscles. Acoustic waves encourage the production and remodeling of collagen to promote tissue repair.

  2. Increases Blood Flow: Improved circulation delivers oxygen and nutrients to the affected area, speeding up the healing process.

  3. Reduces Inflammation and Pain: Acoustic waves break down inflammatory molecules and promote the release of natural pain-relieving substances, offering relief from chronic discomfort.

  4. Promotes Long-Term Healing: By jump starting the body’s remodeling process, Acoustic Wave Therapy sets the stage for lasting recovery.

Why Choose Acoustic Wave Therapy?

Many patients with chronic tendon issues or persistent pain feel stuck after trying various treatments without success. Acoustic Wave Therapy offers hope for these cases by targeting the problem at its source. It is:

  • Non-Invasive: No surgery or downtime required.

  • Quick: Sessions typically last 10-20 minutes.

  • Safe: Proven over decades of clinical use.

  • Effective: Especially for conditions that haven’t responded to physical therapy or chiropractic care.
