Shockwave Therapy Burnaby BC

What is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave therapy, also known as Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT), is a non-invasive treatment that uses high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate your body's natural healing process. This revolutionary shock wave therapy:

  • Breaks down scar tissue and calcifications in tendons and muscles
  • Stimulates new blood vessel formation for faster tissue healing
  • Provides immediate pain relief for 91% of patients

Unlike temporary solutions, extracorporeal shock wave therapy addresses the underlying tissue damage causing your pain. Our Burnaby physiotherapy clinic uses the latest ESWT equipment that delivers therapeutic pressure waves penetrating up to 6cm deep, reaching injuries that ultrasound and other treatments can't.

How Does Shockwave Therapy Work?

Book Now

The science behind low-intensity shockwave therapy involves creating controlled microtrauma that triggers your body's repair mechanisms. Research from leading sports medicine and rehabilitation centers demonstrates that acoustic shockwaves:

Stimulate cellular regeneration by increasing growth factor production in damaged tissue

Enhance blood circulation through neovascularization (new blood vessel formation)

Break down calcifications that restrict movement and cause chronic pain

Reset pain signals by applying therapeutic pressure to hyperstimulate nerve fibers

Each shockwave treatment takes just 15-20 minutes per session at our clinic. Most Burnaby patients complete their therapy program within three to six weeks while maintaining their regular activities - a crucial advantage for our community's active lifestyle. The healing process continues for several weeks after treatment as your body naturally repairs damaged tissue.
