Shockwave Therapy in Flower Mound TX

New Leaf Chiropractic uses Shockwave Therapy in Flower Mound TX as a part of a whole-patient approach to improving patient health and well-being. Officially called low-intensity extracorporeal shockwave therapy (Li-ESWT), the procedure is more commonly known as shockwave therapy.

Shockwave is an amazing new therapy that drastically reduces pain and speeds up the healing process of injured soft tissue and joint conditions.

This therapy works great on sore or tight muscles, most knee, shoulder, ankle wrist or elbow problems or anywhere there is pain.

That’s a big claim I know! But I’ve been practicing for over 22 years and I’ve never seen any modality work as well as shockwave and I’ve tried almost everything out there.

So here is how it works. Shockwave uses acoustic shockwaves to break up soft tissue adhesions and calcifications. It also disrupts the pain cycle giving most people instant relief. This therapy enhances blood circulation and accelerates the healing of stubborn musculoskeletal conditions in bones, tendons, ligaments, and muscle.

And if all that isn’t good enough it also stimulates stem cells causing enhanced collagen synthesis and releasing growth factors. That means it causes new tissue to grow which is incredible. Nothing else does this except injections of stem cells which can cost thousands of dollars.

Depending on the injury, patients can avoid invasive treatments such as steroid injections or surgery. Some countries in Europe have already stopped doing steroid injections and are now doing shockwave instead.
