Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment for painful muscles, ligaments and tendons. Acoustic waves are created which can (1) release trigger points (or muscle knots); (2) break up calcium build-up; (3) accelerate collagen synthesis; and (4) promote new blood vessel formation within the injured structures. All these processes help reduce chronic inflammation.
