Mark III Clinical Radial Shockwave
Conditions Treated with Radial Shockwave Therapy
Radial Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (rESWT) is a highly effective, non-invasive treatment option used to reduce pain and stimulate tissue remodeling in patients suffering from chronic gluteal tendinopathy (often categorized under Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome or GTPS). Unlike temporary quick-fixes, radial shockwave therapy uses pneumatically generated acoustic pressure waves to mechanically trigger cellular healing in the degenerated gluteus medius or minimus.
Radial Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (rESWT) is widely considered one of the most effective, clinically proven treatments for chronic, stubborn plantar fasciitis (often categorized as plantar fasciosis). When standard conservative treatments like stretching, orthotics, or rest fail to provide relief after a few months, radial shockwave therapy serves as a powerful, non-invasive alternative to surgery by mechanically restarting the body's natural healing response in the dense connective tissue of the foot's arch.
Radial Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (rESWT) is a highly effective, non-invasive treatment for chronic shoulder conditions, most notably calcific tendinitis of the rotator cuff and chronic rotator cuff tendinopathy. In the shoulder, shockwave therapy is utilized to break up painful calcium deposits, stimulate blood flow to poorly vascularized tendons, and alleviate chronic pain that hasn't responded to physical therapy or rest
What to Expect During Advanced Acoustic Wave Therapy
Why Choose Us for Advanced Acoustic Wave Therapy?
At Canyon Creek Chiropractic, we use the state-of-the-art Mark III Clinical Radial Acoustic Wave System to provide a non-invasive approach to cellular healing and rejuvenation. The treatment uses high-energy sound waves to reach deeper tissue layers without needles, surgery, or required downtime. For physical medicine, clinical radial shockwave therapy can be used to support recovery from chronic pain, tendon-related concerns, plantar fasciitis, and soft tissue injuries. Its applications also extend to skin tightening, post-weight-loss concerns, collagen support, and cellulite.
For patients experiencing Plantar Fasciitis, acoustic wave therapy may be used as part of a targeted approach to address discomfort and support healing in the tissues surrounding the heel and bottom of the foot. By delivering acoustic waves to the affected area, treatment may help stimulate circulation and tissue response while complementing other conservative care strategies.
Our approach can complement other treatments when appropriate. Chiropractic adjustments can address joint alignment while acoustic wave therapy focuses on surrounding soft tissues, and spinal decompression therapy may be considered as another option depending on your individual concerns. Additional services such as cold laser therapy or red light therapy can also be incorporated into a broader care plan when appropriate.
With brief 5- to 10-minute treatment sessions and protocols generally ranging from 3 to 8 visits, we make advanced acoustic wave therapy a convenient option for patients seeking targeted care.
