Shockwave Therapy

At Fletcher Physiotherapy, we provide advanced shockwave therapy to patients in Hamilton, Stoney Creek, and Hamilton Mountain as a non-invasive solution for chronic pain and stubborn injuries. This innovative treatment uses acoustic waves to stimulate healing, reduce pain, and restore mobility—helping patients recover faster and return to the activities they enjoy.

What is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave therapy is a safe, evidence-based treatment that delivers high-energy sound waves to injured tissues. These waves increase blood flow, accelerate tissue repair, and break down calcifications that may cause pain. It is especially effective for conditions that have not responded to traditional physiotherapy or medication.

Conditions Treated with Shockwave

Shockwave therapy is commonly used for:

• Plantar fasciitis and heel pain

• Achilles tendonitis

• Tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow

• Shoulder pain and rotator cuff injuries

• Hip pain and bursitis

• Patellar tendonitis (jumper’s knee)

• Chronic back and neck pain

• Muscle trigger points

How Shockwave Works at Fletcher Physiotherapy

When you visit our clinic for shockwave therapy, your treatment will include:

1. Assessment: Identifying the source of pain and confirming suitability for shockwave.

2. Targeted Application: Delivering controlled acoustic pulses directly to the affected area.

3. Immediate Relief: Many patients notice pain reduction and improved mobility after the first few sessions.

4. Recovery Plan: Combining shockwave with physiotherapy, exercises, and lifestyle modifications for long-term results.

Each treatment typically lasts 15–20 minutes, and a series of 3–5 sessions is often recommended depending on your condition.
