Shockwave Therapy

At Sycamore Integrative Health Center, we are proud to introduce Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (SWT), a state-of-the-art, non-invasive technology proven to resolve chronic musculoskeletal pain by stimulating your body's natural healing process.

What is Shockwave Therapy (SWT)?

SWT uses powerful, acoustic energy waves to stimulate metabolic activity, enhance blood circulation, and accelerate tissue repair. It is highly effective for conditions like:

• Chronic Plantar Fasciitis (Heel Pain)
• Achilles and Patellar Tendinopathy (Jumper's Knee)
• Shoulder Pain (Rotator Cuff, Tendinitis/Calcification)
• Tennis/Golfer's Elbow
• Hip and Knee pain
• Spinal Pain
• Headaches
• Strain/Sprain Injuries

“After only one Shockwave Therapy treatment, I noticed valuable results. The treatment itself was quick and relatively painless. My back and shoulders tolerated the treatment well and, surprisingly, I was not sore in the days following. My affected muscles are less tight and more mobile. I'm looking forward to further treatments to eliminate chronic pain." - Shawna R.

“I have had 3 Shockwave treatments focusing on my back. I can already feel an improvement. Due to the pain in my lower back I have walked hunched over for the past several years. My friends have commented that I’m now walking a little taller! Traditional chiropractic treatments have never helped my back so I am thrilled with these results. Thank you Dr. Bird!” - Sally G.

"I have been experiencing shoulder and upper arm pain from activity associated with our move in September. The pain worsened with time to the point that I was having difficulty sleeping and performing simple tasks, so I made an appointment for the new shockwave therapy about 4 weeks ago.  Since my shockwave treatment my pain has substantially improved. Obviously my goal is to be 100% pain free so I am scheduling another treatment asap. I would definitely recommend the shockwave therapy if you are experiencing unresolved pain and discomfort." - Tammy G
