Radial Shockwave Therapy
Radial Shockwave Therapy in Singapore
Non-Surgical Treatment for Knee Pain, Shoulder Pain & Tennis Elbow
Radial Shockwave Therapy (RSWT) is a non-invasive, non-surgical treatment commonly used to manage chronic musculoskeletal conditions involving tendons, ligaments, and soft tissues.
At Equilibrio Chiropractic, radial shockwave therapy is used primarily to address knee pain, shoulder pain, and tennis elbow, especially when symptoms have become persistent or slow to resolve.
What Is Radial Shockwave Therapy?
Radial shockwave therapy uses high-energy acoustic waves delivered to the affected area through a handheld applicator. These acoustic waves stimulate biological responses within the tissue, encouraging the body’s natural healing process.
The treatment is performed externally, does not involve injections or medication, and is commonly used for chronic tendon-related conditions.
