Shockwave Therapy in Thousand Oaks — What It Is and How It Can Help Your Pain
Have you been dealing with chronic pain that won't go away like knee pain, shoulder pain, plantar fasciitis, or tendonitis? Have you heard about shockwave therapy. At Acupuncture Pain and Performance in Thousand Oaks, we offer SoftWave shockwave therapy, one of the most advanced options available.
What Is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave therapy uses acoustic sound waves to stimulate your body's natural healing process. The waves are delivered through a handheld device that is applied to the skin. There are no needles, no surgery, and no downtime. How shockwave therapy works is by increasing circulation, reducing inflammation, and activating your body's own stem cells to repair damaged tissue.
What Conditions Does It Treat?
SoftWave shockwave therapy is commonly used for:
Knee pain and osteoarthritis
Shoulder pain and rotator cuff injuries
Plantar fasciitis and heel pain
Tennis elbow and golfer's elbow
Achilles tendinitis
Low back pain and sciatica
Hip pain and bursitis
Chronic tendon injuries that haven't responded to other treatments
Is It Painful?
Most patients feel mild pressure or a light tapping sensation during treatment. It is not painful, and no numbing cream or anesthesia is needed. Sessions take about 10–15 minutes and you can return to normal activity the same day.
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
Most patients see significant improvement in 3–6 sessions. Many notice relief after their very first visit!
