In advanced physiotherapy, shockwave therapy has become a fundamental tool for treating musculoskeletal injuries, reducing chronic pain, and accelerating tissue recovery. There are two main types of shockwaves used in rehabilitation: focused and radial, each with specific applications and unique benefits.
At ClínicaBonaque® in Lorca, we use this innovative technology to provide effective and non-invasive treatments for our patients, achieving optimal results in less time.
What are shockwaves and how do they work?
Shockwaves are high-energy acoustic impulses applied to injured tissues to stimulate cellular repair and improve blood circulation. Depending on the type of injury and the treatment goal, either focused or radial shockwaves are used.
🔹 Ondas de Choque Focales
✔️ Penetran en mayor profundidad y actúan con gran precisión sobre el tejido afectado.
✔️ Se utilizan en lesiones crónicas, tendinopatías y calcificaciones.
✔️ Generan un efecto analgésico y regenerador, favoreciendo la curación celular.
🔹 Focused Shockwaves ✔️ Penetrate deeper and act with great precision on the affected tissue. ✔️ Used for chronic injuries, tendinopathies, and calcifications. ✔️ Produce an analgesic and regenerative effect, promoting cellular healing.
Main applications of shockwave therapy in physiotherapy
Shockwaves are effective for treating a wide variety of musculoskeletal conditions, including:
✔️ Tendinitis and tendinopathies (tennis elbow, patellar tendinitis, plantar fasciitis). ✔️ Sports injuries (muscle overload, muscle tears, sprains). ✔️ Calcifications in tendons and joints. ✔️ Chronic pain in shoulders, hips, knees, and back. ✔️ Myofascial pain syndrome and muscle contractures. ✔️ Post-surgical recovery and tissue regeneration.
Benefits of Focused and Radial Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy offers multiple advantages:
✅ Quick pain relief, reducing the need for medication. ✅ Regeneration of damaged tissues, stimulating collagen production. ✅ High efficacy in chronic injuries, avoiding unnecessary surgeries. ✅ Increased vascularization, enhancing cellular metabolism. ✅ Non-invasive and safe therapy, with short sessions and no significant side effects.
