At Premier Joint & Spine we are always looking for ways to improve the results our patients have with care. Our new Shockwave technology is designed to work at the cellular level. Its gentle impact is aimed at turning on the body’s natural healing process.

Here’s a list of its possible benefits…

• Acceleration of wound healing
• Stimulation of resident stem cells
• Reduction of inflammation
• Increase in blood supply
• Can induce an antibacterial effect
• Can reduce chronic pain
• Breaking up of scar tissue

Shockwaves are sound waves that are delivered by a machine through a handheld device. The treatments are typically 3 to 5 minutes and are usually done 2 to 3 times per week over 4 to 6 weeks.

Every patient and condition is different so treatment time and duration will vary.

Shockwave is also FDA cleared for…

• Activation of connective tissue
• Treatment of chronic diabetic foot ulcers
• Treatment of acute second-degree burns
• Improved blood supply
• Temporary pain relief
