Frequently Asked Questions: Shockwave Therapy in Omaha

What is shockwave therapy (ESWT) and how does it work?

Shockwave therapy, also called extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT), uses high-frequency acoustic waves to stimulate your body’s natural healing response. The waves improve blood flow, promote tissue repair, and reduce nerve sensitivity — helping resolve chronic pain and dysfunction that hasn’t responded to other treatments.

Is shockwave therapy painful?

Most patients describe a mild tapping or pressure sensation during treatment. It is generally well-tolerated, and any temporary discomfort typically resolves quickly. There is minimal downtime, and most people return to normal activities the same day.

How many shockwave therapy sessions will I need?

The number of sessions varies depending on your condition and how your body responds. Most patients see improvement over a series of treatments, which we determine based on your individual assessment and goals.

What conditions does shockwave therapy treat?

At Pelvic Wellness Omaha, we use shockwave therapy to treat chronic pelvic pain, erectile dysfunction (ED), interstitial cystitis/painful bladder syndrome, pelvic floor tension, post-surgical scar pain, and persistent discomfort following childbirth or pelvic surgery.

Does shockwave therapy work for erectile dysfunction?

Yes. Multiple clinical studies, including randomized controlled trials, have shown significant improvement in erectile function and penile blood flow with shockwave therapy. It is particularly effective for vasculogenic ED — meaning ED related to poor blood flow.

Is shockwave therapy covered by insurance?

Shockwave therapy is typically not covered by insurance. At Pelvic Wellness, we are a cash-pay practice, which means you receive 1-on-1 care with a Doctor of Physical Therapy at every visit — no insurance restrictions on your treatment plan or session length.

How is shockwave therapy different from other pelvic pain treatments?

Unlike medications or surgery, shockwave therapy is completely non-invasive and works by addressing the root cause of tissue dysfunction rather than masking symptoms. At Pelvic Wellness, it is integrated with pelvic floor physical therapy for a comprehensive, whole-body approach.

Who performs shockwave therapy at Pelvic Wellness Omaha?

All treatments are performed by a Doctor of Physical Therapy with specialized training in pelvic health. All of our therapists are Board-Certified Pelvic Health Physical Therapist with extensive clinical and academic experience treating both men and women.
