Newtown Square, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/03/2019 -- Radial shock wave therapy uses energy waves to reduce the pain that is present in several injuries and conditions. The process increases metabolic energy around treated areas, stimulating the reabsorption of irritated calcium deposits, and speeding up the body's natural healing process. Dr. David W. Nadler & Associates, a well-known provider of deep tissue massage near Bryn Mawr, PA, is currently booking patients interested in radial shock wave therapy.
Those who suffer from chronic pain caused by many injuries, including tennis elbow, cervical syndrome, patellar tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, and lumbar syndrome can find relief through radial shock wave therapy. Patients benefit from regaining motion and becoming more active following several sessions of radial shock wave therapy treatment.
Radial shock waves are produced when energy reaches the speed of sound. During treatment, a radial shock wave machine transmits high-energy acoustic waves that pass through the skin's surface. Air compressors produce these low and medium frequency waves, and an applicator is then used to spread the waves across the tissue of the affected area.
The waves lead to a disintegration of fibrosis that improves the overall function of the affected area. This specialist treatment has been known to improve conditions that have previously been difficult to manage using traditional pain medication and physiotherapy.
Originating in Europe during the mid-1980s, radial shock wave therapy has only recently been available to the majority of people due to the expensive nature of the technology that is used during this process The shock waves were initially developed to treat kidney stones, but it was later discovered that they are beneficial in the treatment of moderate to chronic pain associated with many conditions.
