There's No Shock!
Shockwave therapy is for people who want to do everything possible to avoid surgery and stop taking pain pills. Shockwave is for those who want to heal their body naturally without invasive procedures or risky side effects. It is for individuals who are driven to stay active and mobile, avoiding surgery and pain pills, while maintaining the highest quality of life possible well into their 60s, 70s, 80s, and even 90s. What is important to remember about Shockwave is that it’s not painful. There are virtually no side effects, which means there are no downsides to this treatment.
Sometimes, the word “shockwave” can make people fearful or apprehensive, as you might think the procedure involves shock therapy, but this isn’t the case – it’s simply the word used to describe the radio frequency sent through the skin. The non-invasive treatment feels very much like a massage.
One of the primary groups of Shockwave therapy recipients we see at Berman Physical Therapy is those suffering from chronic tendinopathies. This medical term encompasses conditions such as tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, Achilles tendonitis, and patellar tendonitis. These conditions typically involve degenerative changes in the tendons due to overuse or repetitive stress, making them ideal for the regenerative capabilities of shockwave therapy.
As to be expected due to the demographic makeup of Naples, many of our patients are older adults who are experiencing musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction. The good news is that Shockwave therapy is extremely beneficial for this age group too. Conditions such as osteoarthritis, which affect joint function and mobility, may see improvement with the increased blood flow and tissue regeneration promoted by shockwave treatments. For many of our clients, Shockwave therapy offers a non-surgical option that can reduce pain and enhance the quality of life.

When using treatments like PRP injections or stem cell injections, it can take days, weeks or even months to determine if they worked, and if they were a good return on investment since those are all cash products. Sometimes, people decide to go to different countries in South America or Central America just to get what they need to recover but still have no certainty that it will work. But with the groundbreaking advancement in Shockwave technology, it is known within a couple of weeks if it’s working.
For those who have dealt with chronic foot pain for weeks, months, or even years, and are tired of being held back by expensive orthotics or unattractive supportive shoes, then Shockwave is for you. If you’re tired of wearing bulky elbow braces that only give you a tiny bit of relief just so you can perform subpar on the tennis court or golf course, then Shockwave is for you. If you just want to make it through the workday while at your desk and be able to type on your computer without enduring pain, then Shockwave is 100% for you.
This is the closest thing to pressing the easy button as you can possibly get in the healthcare industry.
