What is Focused Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave Therapy is an evidence-based treatment that uses high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate tissue repair, reduce pain, and enhance mobility. This non-surgical solution activates the body’s self-healing mechanisms, making it an effective choice for a variety of musculoskeletal conditions.


Key Benefits of Shockwave Therapy
- Non-invasive: Safe, surgery-free treatment with minimal downtime.
- Time-efficient: Sessions typically last 20-30 minutes.
- Pain Reduction: Shockwaves disrupt the transmission of pain signals along nerve fibres, reducing the perception of pain in the treated area.
- Release of Endorphins: Promotes natural analgesic effects by encouraging the release of endorphins, which bind to opioid receptors to inhibit pain signals.
- Inflammation Reduction: Mitigates inflammation by breaking down inflammatory mediators and facilitating their removal from affected tissues.
- Improved Blood Circulation: Stimulates angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels) and vasodilation, enhancing oxygen and nutrient delivery to promote tissue healing.
- Tissue Regeneration: Encourages the production of growth factors essential for cellular repair and regeneration, accelerating the healing process in affected areas.

At The Lab Physio Clinic, our expert team specialises in using Shockwave Therapy to treat a wide range of conditions, including but not limited to:
- Plantar Fasciitis: Relieves persistent heel pain effectively.

Frequently Asked Questions:
About Shockwave Therapy at The Lab Physio Clinic
Shockwave Therapy is often recommended when other treatments have not provided sufficient relief. If you’re currently undergoing physiotherapy and not seeing the desired results, your physiotherapist may suggest this therapy as a next step. Referrals can also come from consultants or healthcare specialists that we collaborate with, who recognise its benefits for specific conditions.
Shockwave Therapy is particularly useful for treating conditions that are slow to heal, such as tendinopathies, due to tendons’ poor blood supply. It serves as an effective second-line treatment when conservative measures, like traditional physiotherapy or medication, have not achieved the desired outcomes.
This minimally invasive treatment is designed to accelerate the healing process, helping to reduce pain and improve overall function.
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during shockwave therapy. The intensity of the treatment can be adjusted to suit your pain tolerance. Some patients may feel slight soreness or tenderness in the treated area for a few days following the session, but this usually subsides quickly.
The number of sessions varies depending on the severity and chronicity of the condition being treated. However, most patients benefit from 3 to 6 sessions, with one session per week. Significant improvements are often noticed within the first few treatments.
Many private health insurance providers cover shockwave therapy including AXA PPP, Cigna, Aviva, but it is always best to check with your insurance company directly. At The Lab Physio Clinic, we offer assistance with insurance queries so please do not hesitate to contact us.
During your first session, the Senior Physiotherapist will conduct a detailed clinical assessment of your condition and explain how shockwave therapy can help. You will then receive your first treatment, where the therapist applies a gel to the affected area and uses the shockwave device to deliver the acoustic waves. The first session typically lasts 45-60 minutes.
Yes, you can usually resume your daily activities immediately after a shockwave therapy session. However, we recommend avoiding high-impact activities for 48 hours post-treatment to allow the healing process to progress smoothly.
