StemWave is a non-invasive therapy used to treat musculoskeletal conditions that delivers high-energy acoustic waves to the affected area and stimulates the body’s natural healing processes. Patients report reduced pain and increased healing with these advantages:
- Non-invasive and painless
- No downtime or recovery time
- Decreased pain, improved function and mobility
- Restored natural healing processes
Acoustic waves are delivered with a handheld device, operated by a therapist, that penetrates deep into the tissue of the affected areas, triggering the body’s repair mechanisms resulting in:
- Increased blood flow
- Reduced inflammation
- Cell regeneration
Commonly treated conditions include:
- Tendinitis
- Plantar fasciitis
- Osteoarthritis
- Stress fractures
- Soft tissue injuries, including sprains and strains
- Nerve Pain of the arms or legs, including sciatica
StemWave can help relieve chronic pain to improve mobility and allow strenghthening to increase overall function. For acute pain, like a muscle strain, using StemWave during early intervention will result in faster recovery.
A SPORT Clinic Physical Therapist can guide you through an assessment if you are not already a clinic patient to determine how StemWave can benefit you. If you are already a patient, ask your physical therapist how StemWave can help you!
