Shockwave Therapy in Delray Beach

Shockwave Therapy at Posh Physical Therapy in Delray Beach: A Non-Surgical Solution for Lasting Pain Relief

Chronic pain and restricted movement can make everyday activities difficult. If you’re looking for a clinically backed, non-invasive treatment, Shockwave Therapy at Posh Physical Therapy offers an effective way to stimulate healing, reduce pain, and restore mobility without the need for surgery or medication.

How Shockwave Therapy Works

Shockwave Therapy uses targeted acoustic waves to stimulate tissue repair, improve circulation, and break down calcifications that contribute to pain and inflammation. This approach is widely used in sports medicine, orthopedics, and rehabilitation to accelerate healing and enhance recovery.

During treatment, acoustic waves penetrate deep into the affected area, triggering the body’s natural repair process. This promotes collagen production, increased blood flow, and pain reduction, leading to long-term relief rather than temporary symptom management.

Why Consider Shockwave Therapy?

This treatment is designed to address chronic pain and injury-related conditions without the risks or recovery time associated with surgery. Patients choose Shockwave Therapy because it is:

Non-invasive – No surgery, no anesthesia, and no downtime.
Time-efficient – Treatments typically take 15-20 minutes and require no recovery period.
Targeted and effective – Addresses the root cause of pain rather than masking symptoms.
A medication-free option – Reduces reliance on painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs.

For individuals experiencing persistent pain or slow-healing injuries, this therapy provides an alternative that supports long-term recovery and improved function.

Conditions That Benefit from Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave Therapy is commonly used for musculoskeletal conditions that affect the tendons, ligaments, and muscles. Some of the most frequently treated conditions include:

Plantar fasciitis (heel pain)
Tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow (tendon irritation)
Achilles tendinitis
Rotator cuff injuries
Patellar tendinitis (jumper’s knee)
Shin splints
Frozen shoulder
Hip pain and bursitis

Untreated conditions can worsen over time, leading to increased pain, loss of mobility, and more invasive treatment options. Seeking care early can help prevent long-term complications.

What to Expect During Treatment

Each session begins with an assessment by a specialist to determine if Shockwave Therapy is appropriate for your condition. A conducting gel is applied to the treatment area, and the device delivers controlled pulses to stimulate the healing response.

Most patients experience gradual improvement over several sessions, with a typical treatment plan consisting of three to five sessions spaced about a week apart. Since the procedure is non-invasive, patients can return to daily activities immediately, though it is recommended to avoid high-impact exercise for 24 to 48 hours after treatment.

Common Questions

How does Shockwave Therapy help with pain?
The treatment works by reducing pain-related neurotransmitters, increasing blood circulation, and stimulating tissue regeneration, which helps the body heal naturally.

Is the treatment painful?
Most patients tolerate Shockwave Therapy well, with only mild discomfort during the session. Treatment settings can be adjusted to ensure a comfortable experience.

How long does it take to see results?
Many patients notice improvement within the first few treatments, while others experience gradual relief as the body continues to heal.

Is there any downtime after treatment?
No. Patients can return to normal activities immediately, though strenuous exercise should be avoided for one to two days.
