Shockwave Therapy In Old Bridge
Shockwave Therapy at Central Jersey Physical Therapy in Old Bridge
A Non-Invasive Solution for Pain Relief and Tissue Healing
Struggling with chronic pain or limited mobility? Shockwave Therapy at Central Jersey Physical Therapy offers a non-invasive, clinically proven treatment to accelerate healing and relieve pain. Whether you’re recovering from an injury or managing a long-term condition, this advanced therapy helps restore function without the need for surgery or medication.
What Is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave Therapy uses acoustic waves to stimulate tissue regeneration, improve blood flow, and break down calcifications. This treatment is widely used in orthopedics, sports medicine, and rehabilitation to promote faster healing of tendons, ligaments, and muscles.
How It Works:
- Pain Reduction – Lowers levels of Substance P, a neurotransmitter linked to pain.
- Tissue Regeneration – Stimulates collagen production to repair damaged tissues.
- Increased Blood Flow – Enhances circulation to speed up the body’s natural healing process.
Benefits of Shockwave Therapy
- Non-Invasive: No surgery, no downtime, no medications.
- Quick Sessions: Treatments last 15-20 minutes, allowing you to resume daily activities immediately.
- High Success Rate: Studies show significant pain relief and improved mobility.
- Long-Term Healing: Promotes tissue repair rather than just masking symptoms.
- Cost-Effective Alternative: Can help avoid expensive surgeries or long-term medication use.
