RPW Shockwave Therapy

1000x more powerful than standard therapeutic ultrasound waves, the RPW (radial pressure wave) is a powerful, proven treatment protocol for a wide array of chronic injuries and pains! As shockwaves break up old scar tissue, your old injury has the opportunity to lay down new tissue and re-heal properly!


What Is RPW Shockwave Therapy?

Radial pressure wave (RPW) therapy, also known as shockwave therapy, is a non-invasive treatment that uses ultrasound technology to treat bone and soft tissue injuries. RPW Shockwave Therapy can assist with various musculoskeletal conditions, such as:

  • Tendonitis

  • Plantar fasciitis

  • Hip pain

  • Shoulder pain

  • Elbow pain

  • Knee pain

  • Achilles tendon pain

  • And more . . .

RPW therapy works by directing high-energy acoustic waves into the injured area, promoting the body's natural healing process. These waves help break down scar tissue and stimulate the growth of new cells to replace damaged ones.

During the treatment, your chiropractor applies a gel to the skin and uses a handheld device to deliver pressure waves to the affected area. While the procedure may cause some discomfort, the results are typically effective.

How Does RPW Help Tissue?

Shockwaves, which are high-energy waves, are used in RPW therapy to create tiny, temporary changes in the cells. These changes trigger the body’s natural healing process, which can help reduce pain and repair damaged tissue.

Sometimes, the shockwaves cause small bubbles to form within cells. If the shockwaves are strong enough, these bubbles can break apart damaged cells. While this may sound harsh, it actually helps kickstart the body’s repair system by causing a mild, beneficial inflammation that supports the removal and replacement of damaged tissue.

This is one of the reasons RPW therapy is especially effective for treating chronic soft tissue issues.

How Can RPW Shockwave Therapy Help Me?

  • Reduce muscle pains and aches

  • Increase blood flow (temporarily)

  • Activate connective tissue
