What is Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive, FDA-cleared treatment that uses high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate the body’s natural healing process. It helps increase blood flow, break down scar tissue, and encourage tissue regeneration—so your body can recover faster and stronger.

What It’s For

This therapy is especially effective for people struggling with stubborn, chronic pain or injuries that haven’t responded to other treatments. Common conditions include:

Plantar fasciitis
Tennis elbow or golfer’s elbow
Chronic joint or tendon pain
Scar tissue buildup
Sports injuries or overuse syndromes

How It Works

During treatment, acoustic waves are delivered to the affected area through a handheld device. These waves penetrate deep into tissue, where they:

  • Increase circulation and nutrient delivery
  • Break up adhesions and scar tissue
  • Reduce inflammation
  • Stimulate collagen production for stronger, healthier tissue

Most sessions take less than 20 minutes, and while some patients feel relief right away, lasting results typically build over several treatments.

Why It’s Different at Arketype

We combine shockwave with corrective care and rehab strategies to ensure long-term results, not just temporary pain relief.
