Heel pain, also known as Plantar Faciitis, can be very difficult to live with as it affects your daily life at home and work. Our Shockwave therapy for heel pain is designed to be a complete service to get you fully rehabilitated and to identify the root cause of the problem.
How long does the procedure last?
In general the pulses are applied to the skin for a few minutes. The exact length of time depends on the condition of the heel but your therapist will discuss this with you beforehand.
Does Shockwave therapy hurt?
No although you may feel slight discomfort in your heels in the following days. This is normal and goes down by itself. Since it is a non-intrusive procedure there are no marks or scars on your skin.
Is Shockwave therapy useful for heel pain?
If you suffer from chronic inflammation and heel pain of plantar fasciitis then Shockwave therapy can make a big difference to you. Using Shockwave therapy you can start walking pain free again without the need for surgery.
How many treatments will I need?
This depends on your exact condition but usually 1-3 treatments is enough to start noticing a difference. Your therapist will always discuss this with you.
How does it work?
Shockwave therapy works by using pulses to create ‘micro-injuries’ which then stimulate the body to heal itself naturally. As well as being used for heel pain it can be used on other parts of the body such as elbow, shoulder and knee.
