Focused shockwave therapy in Huntingdon.
A non-invasive treatment that uses precisely targeted acoustic waves to stimulate healing in tendons, ligaments, bone and deep soft tissue.
What is focused shockwave therapy?
Focused shockwave therapy (FSWT) is a non-invasive medical treatment that uses high-energy acoustic (sound) waves that are concentrated at a specific depth within the body to stimulate healing in damaged tissues.
Unlike radial shockwave therapy, which disperses energy over a wider area, focused shockwave therapy delivers energy precisely to a targeted structure such as a tendon, ligament, bone, or deep soft tissue.
