There Has to Be a Better Way to Heal…
Why Is Pain Treatment Such a Painful Process?
Ironically enough, healing is one of the most painstaking processes for patients in today’s medical climate. For patients with chronic pain, finding relief often means relying on prescription pills that merely “band-aid” the symptoms of pain rather than address the cause of it. Additionally, the side effects of these medications severely compromise quality of life and long-term wellbeing.
Likewise, patients dealing with injuries are traditionally directed in the route of invasive surgeries and pain management. These procedures often require long recovery periods that at the very least, disrupt daily life, and in worse cases, add more complications to a patient’s health than they started with. For anyone simply trying to break free of the debilitating pain cycle, it may seem like the options are bleak…
but it doesn’t have to be this way.
Break Free from Pain without Pills or Invasive Procedures
Shockwave Therapy: Find Relief That Lasts and Recover Fast
A non-invasive, non-restrictive solution available for patients at Michigan Health and Wellness, shockwave therapy works by delivering concentrated energy pulses, or shockwaves, through the use of an external applicator. After applying gel to the affected or injured area, the applicator releases pressure waves while slowly moving over the treatment site. These pressure waves travel past the epidermis, stimulating new cell growth and accelerating tissue, bone, and tendon repair underneath the skin. In as little as 10-15 minutes, many patients report feeling immediate pain relief; and after only 1-2 treatments, some patients report being completely pain-free. These regenerative results are long-lasting and are accomplished without the prolonged recovery period that surgeries require, allowing patients to return to normalcy after only a couple of days.
