Healing Power of Shockwave Therapy

Fast, Effective Pain Relief Without Surgery or Medication

At North Ridge Integrative Health, we’re proud to offer Shockwave Therapy—a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment designed to accelerate healing, reduce pain, and restore mobility. Whether you’re struggling with chronic pain, sports injuries, or musculoskeletal conditions, shockwave therapy can help you get back to doing what you love—faster and naturally.

What Is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave Therapy uses high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate your body’s natural healing process. This therapy increases circulation, breaks up scar tissue, and promotes the regeneration of injured tissues—all without surgery, injections, or prolonged downtime.


  • FDA Approved
  • Non-Invasive
  • No Medication Required
  • Minimal to No Side Effects
  • Quick, In-Office Sessions

How Does Shockwave Work?

 A gel is applied to optimize the contact between the application device and your skin.


The handpiece delivers pulsations to the pain area for a prescribed number of pulses, depending on the condition.


Most patients experience noticeable pain reduction after just a few sessions.


The targeted shockwaves:

  • Stimulate Metabolism -  Promotes cell regeneration
  • Break Down Fibrosis - Breaks up scar tissue and calcifications
  • Increase Blood Flow - Encourages nutrient delivery to injured areas
  • Reduce Pain - Desensitizes nerve endings and calms inflammation

Accelerate healing, reduce pain, avoid medication or steroid injections

and even surgery with shockwave therapy.

    Clinical Results You Can Count On


    Shockwave Therapy has shown consistently high success rates in treating chronic pain and soft tissue injuries. According to the Journal of Orthopedic Research, 90% of patients with Plantar Fasciitis (heel pain) experienced significant improvement. The same study reported a 77% success rate for Tennis Elbow using Radial Shockwave Therapy. Most clinical studies show overall success rates of 75% or higher for a wide range of conditions.


    This treatment is FDA-cleared for both acute and chronic musculoskeletal pain, with no known risks or complications. It’s also supported by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) in the UK, providing evidence of its effectiveness to their National Health Service (NHS).

  • Is Shockwave Therapy Covered by Insurance?

    Shockwave Therapy is considered an elective treatment and is not currently covered by insurance plans. However, many patients find it to be a worthwhile investment due to its high success rates, non-invasive nature, and ability to provide long-lasting relief without surgery or medication.

  • Are There Any Restrictions or Contraindications for Shockwave Therapy?

    Yes, Shockwave Therapy may not be suitable for everyone. It is not recommended for individuals who are pregnant, taking blood thinners, or those with active cancer or malignancies in the treatment area. During your consultation, our team will review your medical history to ensure the treatment is safe and appropriate for you

  • How Many Shockwave Therapy Sessions Will I Need?

    The number of sessions varies based on the severity and duration of your condition. Most patients benefit from 1 session per week for 3 to 6 weeks. During your initial evaluation, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs to ensure the best possible results.

  • WHEN WILL I SEE IMPROVEMENT FROM SHOCKWAVE THERAPY?

    Patients may begin to see improvement 4 weeks after their last treatment. More significant improvement often occurs 8-12 weeks after the last treatment.
