Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy

ESWT (Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy) is endorsed by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines for treating plantar fasciitis. It has demonstrated effectiveness in reducing pain and speeding up the healing process.

Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy

After undergoing Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy, most individuals experience an immediate reduction in painful symptoms. Unlike surgical interventions and pharmaceutical treatments, ESWT has no side effects and typically requires no time off work.

Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) is a cutting-edge, research-supported, non-surgical treatment that is highly effective in addressing a variety of conditions, including:

Heel pain (plantar fasciitis)
Achilles tendon injury
Shin splints
Stress fracture
Delayed bone healing
Hip bursitis
Muscular injury
Severs disease
Osgood Schlatters
Morton’s neuroma
