Joint and Tendon Pain Treatments in Lloydminster

Shockwave therapy is an effective noninvasive treatment for those suffering from many chronic tendon and joint disorders and/or pain. Our Lloydminster massage therapist is fully trained in the use of shockwave therapy. The therapy works by sending acoustic energy waves into the soft tissue or bones. Which causes a controlled microtrauma in the affected tissue that has built up in the area. The controlled re-injury of tissue and allows the body to generate new blood vessels, muscle fibers and bone cells that lead to faster healing and less pain.

Shockwave therapy is an effective treatment in the management and elimination of pain, it is effective because the acoustic waves applied during treatment stimulate and increase a metabolic activity in the affected tissue. Shockwave can break down calcific deposits through the production cavitation bubbles and its analgesic reaction helps reduce pain signals. Anyone with soft tissue injuries and pain in Lloydminster can benefit from shockwave therapy, especially athletes and active individuals. Shockwave provides a safe nonsurgical alternative therapy for people who suffer from chronic injuries.
