What is shockwave therapy?
Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses penetrating sound waves to target the source of your pain directly. The shock waves can reach your deep tissues, muscles, tendons, and even your bones.
The high-energy wave pulsations trigger regenerative effects in your cells and tissues. It increases your blood circulation and stimulates tissue and blood vessel regeneration. It also targets your pain receptors and nerves, effectively reducing your pain and eliminating the need for painkillers. Shock wave treatment has gained a reputation among Dr. Sardar’s patients who want to avoid steroid injections or surgery. His patients have reported a significant reduction in their pain levels and an improvement in their overall mobility.
What Conditions Does Shockwave Therapy Treat?
Dr. Sardar uses Shockwave Therapy to treat patients looking to avoid medication and surgery. The acoustic waves produced in Shockwave Therapy interact with your injured tissue to stimulate tissue and cell regeneration. Shockwave Therapy promotes cell growth, accelerated tissue repair, mobility restoration, and analgesic effects to relieve musculoskeletal disorders and orthopedic injuries.

What Are The Effects Of Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave Therapy works on multiple levels to boost your body’s healing and regenerative abilities to relieve pain effectively. These are a few of the biological effects that stimulate your body’s natural healing and regenerative response:
- Anti-inflammatory Effect
- Angiogenesis, formation of new blood vessels
- Pain Relief
- Repair and Regeneration
How does shockwave therapy work?
Dr. Sardar uses advanced shock wave technology to produce high-energy shock waves to stimulate healing and repair in your muscles, connective tissues, and bones. The shock waves work at a cellular level to trigger the following biological reactions:
- Anti-inflammation: Shock waves can regulate the release of inflammatory mediators to reduce and prevent inflammation.
- Boost growth factors: High-energy shock waves boost the release of growth factors in the affected area. This leads to enhanced tissue and blood vessel formation.
- Tissue regeneration: Shockwave Therapy stimulates cell multiplication and protein synthesis for faster healing from injuries. The shock waves also stimulate the production of new blood vessels and subsequently improve blood circulation. This leads to more nutrients and oxygen in the affected tissues, allowing faster healing.
- Hyperstimulated pain receptors: The rapid shock waves overstimulate your pain receptors and nerves. They become numb and cannot transmit pain signals.
How Is Shockwave Therapy Done?
Dr. Henry Sardar uses a non-invasive Piezo Shockwave 2 device to perform Shockwave Therapy. First, we apply a lubricant gel to aid in the penetration of the acoustic waves. Dr. Sardar runs the probe over the affected area, and the shock waves travel into your deep tissues to elicit physiological reactions. It triggers your natural healing mechanism, allowing your cell regeneration and tissue repair.
Dr. Sardar targets the affected area for only a few minutes. You can have Shockwave Therapy once a week for several weeks. You may start seeing significant pain relief and improvement after about 6 to 8 weeks of shock wave treatment.
What Are The Benefits Of Shockwave Therapy?

Are There Any Restrictions After Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave Therapy is the latest treatment to reduce pain and enhance your recovery effectively. Although it provides almost immediate pain relief, it does not immediately cure your painful condition after one session. Allow your body to heal and recover fully. We suggest avoiding strenuous physical activity a few days after your treatment. Dr. Sardar may prescribe a therapy care plan for you to follow after your sessions. This may include hot or cold packs, light exercises, stretching, or other measures to soothe any discomfort. Other than that, there are no restrictions after Shockwave Therapy. It is entirely non-invasive and drug-free, so you can even go about your daily routine afterward.
