Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT)
An innovative, non-invasive treatment designed to restore pelvic health and function.
How Shockwave Therapy Works
Shockwave Therapy uses high-frequency acoustic waves to target precise areas, encouraging your body’s natural healing processes. This can significantly enhance the results of traditional pelvic floor physical therapy.
Improve Circulation
Enhances blood flow and circulation deep within pelvic tissues.
Stimulate Repair
Triggers cellular mechanisms for tissue repair and regeneration.
Reduce Discomfort
Decreases nerve sensitivity and alleviates chronic discomfort effectively.
Regain Comfort & Function
By integrating ESWT into your care plan, we help you overcome plateaus and achieve lasting relief more efficiently.

Chronic pelvic pain
Painful bladder syndrome / interstitial cystitis
Post-surgical or scar-related pain
Erectile dysfunction and other sexual health concerns
Muscle or tendon-related pelvic pain
