What to expect from Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy is a thorough and concise step by step process typically including
- Identification of problem area involving probing and light massage, largely executed according to feel on behalf of the practitioner and in conjunction with the patient
- Gel is applied to the area located and is necessary to transfer the waves efficiently and smoothly
- Finally the Shockwave applicator is delicately pressed against the problem area and images are transferred back to the monitor
