Shockwave Treatment

As part of my commitment to offering comprehensive care options for musculoskeletal conditions, I'm pleased to introduce you to Shockwave Therapy—an advanced, non-invasive treatment available through our specialist clinic, Compass Health Centre.

What is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave Therapy (also known as Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy or ESWT) is a non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic pressure waves to stimulate healing in injured tissues. These pressure waves trigger increased blood flow, break down calcified fibroblasts, and stimulate the body's natural healing mechanisms.
