What shockwave therapy is
Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) delivers focused acoustic waves into injured tissue, which prompts increased blood flow, reduces inflammation, and helps break down scar tissue and calcium deposits. Radius uses Storz Medical shockwave technology, one of the most established systems in the field, to target the damaged tissue precisely.
Conditions it treats
Shockwave therapy is most useful for stubborn injuries that have plateaued. Conditions commonly treated at Radius include:
- Plantar fasciitis
- Achilles tendinopathy
- Calcific shoulder tendinopathy
- Tennis or golfer's elbow
- Patellar tendinopathy (jumper's knee)
- Morton's neuroma
- Chronic muscle or fascia tightness
Why it's different at Radius
The technology matters, but the provider matters more. At Radius, shockwave therapy is delivered by trained clinicians who adjust each treatment to the patient's body, injury, and response, rather than running a fixed protocol. For many patients, ESWT is the step that restarts healing after other treatments have stalled.
