SHOCKWAVE

in Debary, FL, and New Smyrna Beach, FL

Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) is a multidisciplinary device, its main assets are fast pain relief and mobility restoration. Together with being a non-surgical therapy with no need for painkillers makes it an ideal therapy to speed up recovery and cure various indications causing acute or chronic pain. ESWT forces your body to create new tissue cells in the damaged area. Expect gradual healing to take place over days, weeks, or months.

 

WHAT IS SHOCKWAVE?

Acoustic waves with high energy peaks used in Shockwave therapy interact with tissue causing overall medical effects of accelerated tissue repair and cell growth, analgesia, and mobility restoration. All the processes mentioned in this section are typically employed simultaneously and are used to treat chronic, sub-acute, and acute conditions.

Shockwave Therapy is available in our two locations: Debary, FL and New Smyrna Beach, FL.

What Does Shockwave Therapy Do?

Stimulation of Collagen Production

 

The production of a sufficient amount of collagen is a necessary precondition for the repair processes of damaged myoskeletal and ligamentous structures. Shockwave therapy accelerates procollagen synthesis. The therapy forces the newly created collagen fibers into a longitudinal structure which makes the newly formed tendon fibers denser and stiffer and creates a firmer structure.

Dissolution of Calcified Fibroblasts

 

Calcium build-up is most often a result of micro-tears or other trauma to a tendon. Acoustic waves break up the existing calcifications. Shockwave therapy starts the biochemical decalcification of the calcium build-up of a toothpaste-like consistency and treats the tendon. The granular particles of calcium are then removed by the lymphatic system.

Dispersion of Pain Mediator

 

Substance P is a neurotransmitter that mediates pain information through C-fibers. This neuropeptide is generally associated with intense, persistent and chronic pain. It relays pain messages to the central nervous system. Lowering the concentration of Substance P reduces the stimulation of afferent nociceptive fibers and thus reduces the pain. Decreasing Substance P, histamines and other nociceptive metabolites also helps inhibit development of inflammatory edema. Acoustic waves generated by Shockwave therapy lower the Substance P concentration and trigger pain relief.

Release of Trigger Points

 

Trigger points are the principal cause of pain in the back, neck, shoulder, and limbs. They are associated with palpable nodules in taut bands of muscle fibers and have extremely contracted sarcomeres. The dysfunctional sarcomeres contract so tightly that they begin to cut off their own blood supply. This causes waste products to build up. Waste product build-up irritates the sensory nerve endings which then causes even more contraction. This vicious cycle is referred to as a “metabolic crisis”. The assumed mechanism of action is that the delivered acoustic energy unblocks the calcium pump and thus reverses the metabolic crisis in the myofilaments and releases the trigger points.

For many, many years, I have been under therapy for chronic spinal column pain from injuries in the U.S. Air Force. Included in these treatments, I've had acupuncture and chiropractor help.Compared to other chiropractors, Dr. Jamie Grainger and her medical teams are awesome. They, from the first visit, are extremely detailed in obtaining data. It takes many minutes of questions, x-rays and studies to achieve the best treatment for everyone's special case.As most of you know, for me to write a positive review you have to be the best. I don't BS about letting you know about my experiences and why.Having problems with your health and not happy with your chiropractor? Try Ultimate Spine Wellness in Debary, Florida.By the way, I forgot to mention that they have many electronic machines for your therapy. Also, you get to do homework for bettering your care sooner.
