Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy in Sarasota, FL
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Technology (ESWT) provides low intensity acoustic shockwaves to a treatment area. Scientific studies have proven the healing success of focused shockwaves. This FDA cleared technology was developed in Europe and is currently used around the globe. A wealth of medical experience, state-of-the-art engineering, and optimal quality have been built into each ESWT device; and extensive clinical studies and tests have confirmed its safety and efficacy. If performed by a qualified medical provider, Extracorporeal Shock Wave Technology (ESWT) has virtually no risks or side effects.
ACOUSTIC PULSES PHYSICALLY STIMULATE THE CELLS BIOLOGIC RESPONSE AND HEALING MECHANISMS, INCLUDING RELEASE OF GROWTH FACTORS, ACTIVATION OF STEM CELLS AND PLATELETS AND INCREASED BLOOD FLOW.
This non-invasive procedure represents a breakthrough treatment option for a broad range of musculoskeletal conditions.
What is ESWT?
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Technology (ESWT) is the most advanced non-invasive treatment method cleared by the FDA. This proprietary technology is based on a unique set of pressure waves that stimulate the metabolism, enhance blood circulation, and accelerate the healing process.

Why consider Non-invasive ESWT?
ESWT has a proven success rate that is equal to or greater than that of traditional treatment methods (including surgery) and without the risks, complications,
and lengthy recovery time. ESWT is performed in our clinic, does not require anesthesia, requires a minimal amount of time, most patients can immediately bear weight (i.e. walk), and return to normal activity after the procedure.
Benefits of ESWT
Many patients attain pain relief and improved range of motion with their first treatment. – Non-invasive – No anesthesia – No risk of infection – No scarring – No downtime – Fast results – Natural Healing for acute or chronic musculoskeletal pain
How It's Performed
Coupling gel is applied to the specified treatment area to enhance effectiveness. After these preparations, ESWT pressure waves are released via the applicator which is moved over the area in a circular motion.
Duration and # of Treatments
Treatment sessions take approximately 10-15 minutes depending on the disorder to be treated. Generally, 4-5 treatment sessions are necessary at weekly intervals.
