Treatments

Shockwave Therapy

A newly emerging but increasingly popular treatment, Shockwave Therapy is a highly successful alternative to surgical treatment used to treat tendon injuries and for the removal of calcium build up in the affected sites.

What is Shockwave Therapy

Delivered by Alex Szabo, a highly trained and experienced Nottingham Osteopath , Shockwave Therapy has been proven to help patients who have lived with long-term and debilitating pain and previously thought that surgery was their only option for relief.

Surgery inherently brings with it a host of risks and has no guarantee of success, especially with tendon injuries and related conditions; clinically proven Shockwave Therapy, however, offers a safe and effective non-invasive option.

What it helps

Conditions shockwave therapy treats

Aftercare

  • Rest the Treated Area: Avoid strenuous activities that could stress the treated region for a few days.
  • Apply Ice if Needed: Use ice packs to reduce any swelling or discomfort, but only as advised by your therapist.
  • Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to help your body recover and flush out toxins.
  • Perform Gentle Stretches: Engage in light stretching exercises to maintain flexibility without straining the treated area.
  • Avoid Anti-Inflammatory Medications: Steer clear of these medications immediately after treatment, as they can interfere with the healing process initiated by shockwave therapy.
  • Follow Up Exercises: Practice any prescribed exercises to aid recovery and strengthen the area.
  • Attend Follow-Up Appointments: Return for any scheduled follow-up sessions to monitor your progress and receive further treatment if necessary.
