Shockwave Therapy is predominantly used in orthopaedic treatment. It can also be applied in other areas such as Urology and Wound Healing.

SHOCKWAVE IN ORTHOPAEDICS

Treatment Solutions for Tendinopathies, Myofascial Pain Syndrome and Bone Healing

PROMOTES FASTER HEALING AND REDUCES PAIN

Shockwave Therapy is now a popular rehabilitation device in Medical Centers and Allied Health Clinics around Australia and New Zealand. The clinical evidence demonstrates that Shockwave Therapy (both Radial and Focussed) restores injured tissue and reduces pain for chronic tendinopathies. It can also be used for myofascial pain syndrome with deactivation of trigger poins and lengthening of fascial band constrictions which leads to increased range of motion and restored function. Focus Shockwave can also be used for bond healing.

It is commonly used in conjunction with other traditional methods such as exercise to optimize treatment outcomes. In ANZ, Shockwave Therapy is used by Physiotherapists, Chiropractors, Podiatrists, Osteopaths and Sports Medicine Doctors. DJO offer both Radial and Focused Shockwaves for orthopaedic applications.
