Shockwave therapy in Oklahoma City
Also known as extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT), is a non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic pressure waves to reduce pain and promote healing in damaged or injured tissues. It works by delivering targeted high-energy sound waves to areas of pain or dysfunction, stimulating the body’s natural healing processes, increasing blood flow, and reducing inflammation.
Call (405) 780-9326 or contact us online today to schedule an appointment and learn more about shockwave therapy in Oklahoma City.
Shockwave therapy helps reduce pain through several mechanisms:
- Nerve desensitization: The mechanical impact of shockwaves may disrupt pain signal transmission by desensitizing local nerve endings.
- Gate Control Theory: Shockwaves can interfere with pain signals traveling to the brain, essentially “blocking” the transmission of pain.
- Endorphin Release: Shockwave therapy has been shown to stimulate the release of endorphins, the body’s natural painkillers, which can further alleviate discomfort.

Shockwaves help break down scar tissue and adhesions that can restrict movement and cause pain. By promoting tissue remodeling, shockwave therapy restores the elasticity and flexibility of muscles, tendons, and ligaments, contributing to overall functional improvement. This therapy can even break down calcifications in soft tissue so it is helpful with calcific tendonitis.
ESWT is particularly effective for treating musculoskeletal conditions such as:
- Chronic tendon issues
- Plantar fasciitis
- Calcific shoulder tendinitis
- Muscle and ligament injuries
- Trigger points and myofascial pain
- Sprain/strain injuries
- Low back and hip pain
Shockwave therapy is a safe and effective treatment option with minimal side effects, making it an excellent addition to chiropractic care for patients looking for non-surgical, drug-free solutions to manage pain and improve function.
Frequently Asked Questions
How Many Shockwave Therapy Sessions Will I Need?
The number of shockwave therapy sessions required varies depending on the individual's condition, the severity of the pain, and how well the body responds to the treatment. Typically, a course of treatment involves 3 to 6 sessions, spaced about a week apart. However, for more chronic or complex conditions, more sessions may be recommended. During your initial consultation at Chiropractic Wellness Clinic in Oklahoma City, our chiropractor will conduct a thorough evaluation and develop a personalized treatment plan that outlines the anticipated number of sessions based on your specific needs and goals. We will continuously monitor your progress and adjust the treatment plan as necessary to achieve the best possible outcome.
Who is a Good Candidate for Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave therapy is often an excellent treatment option for individuals in Oklahoma City experiencing chronic musculoskeletal pain that has not responded well to conservative treatments such as rest, ice, physical therapy, or medication. It is particularly beneficial for conditions like plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinopathy, tennis elbow, and other tendinopathies. However, it may not be suitable for everyone. Certain conditions, such as pregnancy, bleeding disorders, active infections, and the presence of pacemakers, may be contraindications. Our experienced chiropractors at Chiropractic Wellness Clinic will conduct a thorough evaluation to determine if shockwave therapy is the right and safe treatment option for your specific situation.
