Fast Recovery with Shockwave Therapy at NYPPT Midtown

Uncategorized

Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) at New York Plaza Physical Therapy is an advanced, non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic waves to heal stubborn injuries. During ESWT sessions, high-energy sound waves are applied directly to the injured area to stimulate blood flow, accelerate tissue repair, and reduce chronic pain. Our licensed PTs incorporate shockwave therapy into your customized rehab plan to speed recovery from conditions that have not responded to other treatments.

What to Expect

  • Non-Invasive Procedure: You’ll lie comfortably while the therapist applies the shockwave device to the targeted area (such as a shoulder, heel, or elbow). There’s no needle or surgery involved.

  • Short Sessions: Treatments typically last around 10–20 minutes, depending on the area treated.

  • Increasing Intensity: The therapist will adjust the intensity of the waves based on your tolerance and the treatment area.

  • Integrated Treatment Plan: Shockwave is used alongside manual therapy and exercises during your PT sessions to enhance results.

Key Benefits

  • Accelerated Healing: Shockwaves stimulate cell regeneration, helping tissues recover faster.

  • Pain Relief: Effective in reducing chronic pain and inflammation from tendonitis, fasciitis, and other conditions.

  • Breaks Down Scar Tissue: Sound waves can help break up calcifications and scar tissue, improving mobility.

  • Non-Surgical: No incisions or downtime – you can often return to normal activities immediately.

  • HSA/FSA Eligible: Shockwave therapy typically qualifies for pre-tax health spending accounts, making it an affordable addition to your recovery.
