October 29, 2024Understanding “Double Crush” Syndrome in Nerve Injuries and How Chiropractic Treatment Can Help
November 5, 2024If you’re dealing with the debilitating pain of Frozen Shoulder (adhesive capsulitis), you know how hard it is to perform daily activities. At Blue Heron Chiropractic, we’re proud and excited to offer Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) as an effective, non-invasive solution for frozen shoulder. Read on to find out how to relieve frozen shoulder pain with Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) at Blue Heron Chiropractic.
Frozen shoulder limits your range of motion and causes stiffness and pain that can last for months or even years. Traditional treatments like physical therapy exercise, medication, and cortisone injections can help, but many patients still struggle with pain and limited movement. That’s where ESWT (“Shock Wave” or “Shockwave”) comes in.
What is Shock Wave?
Shockwave Therapy uses targeted sound waves to stimulate blood flow and break down scar tissue in the shoulder joint. This increased blood flow promotes faster healing, reduces inflammation, and alleviates pain. Deep in the tissues, Stem Cells are activated by microscopic impacts to restore the original structure. With regular treatments, ESWT helps patients regain shoulder mobility and enjoy a better quality of life.
ESWT is not Painful, Expensive or Difficult.
ESWT is “Regenerative Medicine” and besides breaking up scar tissue adhesions, it will kickstart activate the Stem Cells in your body to repair tissue the way it was originally designed to be. It is a short treatment, less than 15 minutes. It is not uncomfortable – like snapping your fingers – and all you have to do is sit back and relax. A piece of high-tech equipment does the work. An ESWT Shock Wave session at Blue Heron Chiropractic costs only about the same amount as a regular office visit.
Benefits of Shock Wave for Frozen Shoulder
