Shockwave therapy (also called Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy, or ESWT) uses high-energy acoustic waves delivered to injured tissue through a handheld device. These waves stimulate the body's natural healing response — increasing blood flow, breaking down scar tissue, and triggering cellular repair.
At V.I.P. Chiropractic Care, we use shockwave therapy as a powerful complement to chiropractic adjustments — especially for patients dealing with chronic or hard-to-treat conditions that haven't responded to other therapies.
Why Patients Choose Shockwave Therapy
Non-Invasive
No needles, no surgery, no downtime. Most patients return to normal activity the same day.

Many patients notice improvement within 3–5 sessions. Chronic conditions that have persisted for months can resolve in weeks.
Drug-Free
Shockwave stimulates your body's own healing mechanisms — no medications, no side effects.
Treats Root Cause
Rather than masking pain, shockwave therapy promotes actual tissue repair and regeneration.
Clinically Proven
Backed by extensive research and used by professional sports teams and elite athletes worldwide.
Works for All Ages
Safe and effective for adults of all ages, from active athletes to seniors dealing with chronic pain.

What to Expect
Consultation & Assessment
Dr. Glen reviews your history, examines the affected area, and determines if shockwave therapy is right for you.
Treatment Session
A gel is applied to the skin and the shockwave device is moved over the treatment area. Sessions typically last 10–20 minutes.
Mild Discomfort is Normal
You may feel some pressure or mild discomfort during treatment — this is normal and indicates the therapy is working.
Recovery & Follow-Up
Most patients need 3–6 sessions spaced 1 week apart. Dr. Glen will monitor your progress and adjust the plan as needed.
