What Exactly is Shockwave Therapy?
RSWT is a non-invasive care management for chronic musculoskeletal pain.
Acoustic shockwaves are passed through the skin and into an affected area at a set frequency using a hand-held applicator.
It stimulates the body to repair itself using its natural processes, as opposed to introducing an inorganic substance into the body.
Shockwave therapy delivers pneumatically driven shockwaves releasing high energy pulses that travel through the skin, inflamed/thickened tissue, calcification and bone.
High energy pulses of ultrasound waves stimulate the body’s self-healing process.
This results in increased circulation to the injured tissue and the breakdown of scar tissue and calcific deposits. Chronic Foot Pain services
Shockwaves have shown to increase local blood circulation and metabolism.
Modulation, stimulate the regeneration processes from the healthy tissue surrounding the focus of the affliction; resulting in injury resolution.

Do you suffer from chronic Heel Pain or Plantar Fasciitis?
RSWT is the single biggest advance in the care management of plantar
fasciitis (or fasciopathy) in the last 20 years when measured by persistent pain relief.
Commonly known as heel pain, plantar fasciitis is a degenerative condition of a ligament called the “Plantar Fascia”.
The Plantar Fascia runs from the heel to the ball of the foot and helps to support the arch of the foot.
RSWT has been validated by international research teams around the world.
This gives patients the best chance of providing sustained, persistent pain relief from their plantar fasciitis.
At My FootDr all of our staff have undergone specialty training on the use of RSWT.
