Shockwave Therapy in Bridgewater, NJ

What Is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive, advanced treatment that uses high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes in damaged tissues. It’s a highly effective solution for patients with chronic tendon pain, joint issues, and persistent soft tissue injuries. At FYZICAL Therapy & Balance Centers in Bridgewater, NJ, we offer this innovative treatment to help you achieve lasting relief without the need for surgery or prolonged medication.

How Shockwave Therapy Works

Stimulating Natural Healing Processes
The treatment delivers focused shockwaves deep into the affected area. This acoustic energy triggers a biological response that increases blood flow, stimulates the repair of damaged tissue, and breaks down painful scar tissue and calcifications. It is particularly effective for conditions like plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, Achilles tendonitis, and calcific shoulder pain.

Fast, Safe, and Effective
A typical session at our Bridgewater clinic lasts about 15–20 minutes. Many patients experience significant improvement after just a few sessions. As a non-surgical and drug-free procedure, it requires no downtime, allowing you to return to your daily activities immediately after each treatment.

FAQs

1. How many shockwave therapy sessions are typically needed?

Most patients require a series of 3 to 5 treatment sessions, scheduled about a week apart, to achieve optimal results. The exact number depends on the nature and severity of your condition, and your therapist will outline a personalized plan after your initial evaluation.

2. Is shockwave therapy painful?

The treatment can cause mild, temporary discomfort as the shockwaves target the affected area. Many patients describe it as a deep, pulsing sensation. Your therapist will work with you to ensure the intensity is within a tolerable and therapeutic range.

3. What is the difference between shockwave therapy and laser therapy?

While both are non-invasive, they work differently. Shockwave therapy uses high-energy acoustic waves to break down scar tissue and stimulate a deep healing response in chronic conditions. Laser therapy uses light energy to reduce inflammation and promote cellular repair, often used for softer tissue injuries and pain management. Your therapist will recommend the best option for you.

4. Are there any side effects?

Shockwave therapy is very safe. Some patients may experience mild soreness, redness, or swelling in the treated area for a short period after the session. These side effects are temporary and typically resolve within 24-48 hours.

5. Is shockwave therapy covered by insurance?

Coverage for shockwave therapy can vary by insurance provider and plan. Our Bridgewater clinic team will verify your benefits and discuss all financial options with you before beginning treatment to ensure clarity and transparency.
