Shockwave Therapy in Toms River
If you’ve been sidelined by chronic pain and are looking for a drug-free, non-surgical way to get relief, we offer shockwave therapy at Family First Chiropractic.
How Does It Work?
Shockwave therapy promotes healing by focusing high-energy waves on areas afflicted by chronic pain. This therapy can effectively manage persistent inflammation and discomfort by improving blood flow and vessel growth, encouraging collagen production, and expediting cell growth and tissue repair.
Who Can Benefit?
One of the fantastic benefits of shockwave therapy is it can address so many conditions, and it’s especially beneficial for those with chronic issues that have been resistant to other therapies or treatments.
If you have any of the following, you may benefit from shockwave therapy:
- Ankle pain
- Back pain
- Golfer’s/tennis elbow
- Hamstring injuries
- Heel spurs
- Hip pain
- Knee pain
- Neck pain
- Plantar fasciitis
- Shin splints
- Shoulder pain
- Tendonitis
Please note that shockwave therapy is not recommended for patients with certain medical contraindications.
Customized to Your Needs
While the machine’s default settings are generally comfortable for most patients, causing only slight pressure or a mild pinching sensation, we can further customize these settings. For example, if a patient experiences more discomfort, we can adjust the frequency, intensity, and even the choice of the tip.
Sometimes, patients may experience some soreness after the first session, but it’s similar to what you may feel after working out for the first time in a while. With shockwave therapy, we can modify the settings to reduce any potential discomfort in future treatments. We always aim to ensure patient comfort throughout the therapy while using the appropriate settings for each treated area.
