Newtown Square, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/17/2020 -- Dr. David W. Nadler & Associates is currently scheduling appointments for radial and focused shockwave therapy services for patients throughout the summer months. As an alternative to surgery, radial and focused shockwave therapy is an effective procedure that can reduce pain without the need to spend long periods recovering.
Shockwave therapy is a method of treating musculoskeletal disorders that uses acoustic and electro-magnetic energy to create microtraumas in parts of a patient's body. These traumas supercharge the body's repair systems to alleviate pain and improve the overall outcome.
As an effective alternative to surgery, radial and focused shockwave therapy allows patients to schedule five 20-minute sessions to treat the affected area. If the initial five sessions still leave a patient with residual pain, additional sessions can be scheduled for further treatment of the musculoskeletal condition.
Following the procedure, most patients experience few or no side effects. Patients can, in some cases, experience mild bruising or discomfort in the treated area for a period of time after radial and focused shockwave treatment. However, the majority of patients experience a significant improvement of their symptoms.
The key benefit to radial and focused shockwave therapy is that the entire procedure takes place outside of the body, which negates the need for lengthy recovery periods and reduces the possibility of severe side effects. Surgery can be effective and may be required in some cases, but it comes with a significant amount of risk. Surgical patients are subjected to anesthesia, incisions, and other risks that can affect recovery times, procedure outcomes, and more. Shockwave therapy, by contrast, focuses on stimulating the body's own healing response, which means that conditions are healed from the inside out.
