Shock Wave Therapy in Physiotherapy: A Simple Guide for Clients
Shock wave therapy, also known as Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT), is a non-invasive treatment used by physiotherapists to help manage certain musculoskeletal conditions that involve persistent pain or slow healing.
Despite the name, it does not use electric shocks. Instead, it uses high-energy sound waves that are directed into the affected area of the body. These sound waves help stimulate your body’s natural repair mechanisms — increasing blood flow, breaking down scar tissue, and promoting tissue regeneration.
Your physiotherapist will adjust the intensity, frequency, and number of pulses based on clinical guidelines and your individual tolerance and condition.
What conditions can it help with?
Shock wave therapy is commonly used in physiotherapy for chronic tendon and soft tissue conditions, particularly when other treatments have not fully resolved symptoms.
Some of the most common conditions include:
Foot and ankle
Plantar fasciitis (heel pain)
Achilles tendinopathy
Elbow and arm
Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis)
Golfer’s elbow (medial epicondylitis)
Shoulder
Calcific tendinopathy (calcium deposits in the rotator cuff)
Chronic rotator cuff tendinopathy
Knee
Patellar tendinopathy (jumper’s knee)
It is often used alongside other physiotherapy treatments such as exercise rehabilitation, load management, and manual therapy for the best outcomes.
An assessment by a professional healthcare practitioner at Activate Physiotherapy is necessary to ensure you’re a candidate for Shockwave Therapy. In addition to receiving shockwave treatment, our highly skilled Physiotherapists will provide treatments as recommended to enhance the benefits and outcomes including exercise therapy, tissue and joint mobilisation, postural assessment and correction, supportive taping, bracing or orthoses as well as advice and education to ensure you recover faster and return to the things you love.
