Shockwave Therapy in Toronto

Non-Invasive Treatment for Pain and Soft Tissue Conditions

Shockwave therapy uses acoustic waves to deliver energy to targeted areas of the body. It can be used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan for certain persistent muscle, tendon and soft tissue conditions.

At Forest Hill Chiropractic and Massage Clinic, shockwave therapy may be combined with hands-on treatment, exercise and other therapies depending on your condition.

What Can Shockwave Therapy Help With?

Shockwave therapy may be appropriate for conditions such as:

• Plantar fasciitis
• Achilles tendon problems
• Tendon and soft tissue pain
• Chronic muscle tension
• Certain sports and overuse injuries
• Persistent areas of pain that have not responded to other approaches

What Can You Expect?

During treatment, the shockwave applicator is placed against the affected area and acoustic waves are delivered to the tissues.

Treatment is relatively quick, although the intensity and number of treatments will depend on your condition and how you respond.

Your chiropractor will first assess your condition to determine whether shockwave therapy is an appropriate option for you.

Is Shockwave Therapy Right for You?

Not every condition requires shockwave therapy. We will assess your symptoms and discuss the treatment options that make the most sense for your particular situation.
