What Is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) is an FDA-cleared treatment that uses high-energy sound waves to stimulate healing in damaged tissue. It works by increasing blood flow (neovascularization) and breaking down scar tissue that causes chronic pain.

Why It Works: The plantar fascia and Achilles tendon have poor blood supply. Shockwave creates NEW blood vessel formation, bringing oxygen and nutrients to starved tissues for the first time in months.

🦶 Plantar Fasciitis (Heel Pain)

The Problem: Sharp, stabbing heel pain with those first steps in the morning. Your plantar fascia has become damaged from overuse, leading to chronic inflammation and scar tissue.

Classic Symptoms:

  • Severe heel pain when first standing in the morning
  • Sharp pain after prolonged sitting ("movie theater sign")
  • Pain that improves with walking but returns after rest
  • Tenderness on bottom of heel

The Fix: Shockwave creates controlled micro-trauma that triggers your body to repair the damaged tissue and grow new blood vessels.

Result: 85% of patients see significant improvement (Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2020).

🏃 Achilles Tendinitis

The Problem: Morning stiffness and pain in the back of your ankle that limits running or walking. Chronic tendonitis often involves thickened, disorganized tissue.

Why It Won't Heal on Its Own: The Achilles has extremely poor blood supply, especially in the "watershed zone" 2-6 cm above the heel. Without adequate circulation, damaged fibers can't repair themselves.

The Fix: Shockwave stimulates new blood flow in the tendon, accelerating healing where rest has failed.

Result: Athletes with chronic Achilles tendinopathy show 75-80% improvement with ESWT combined with eccentric exercises.

Other Conditions We Treat

✓ Heel Spurs - Dissolves calcium deposits through cavitation

Real Patient Results

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Pain-free for the first time in a year."

I had plantar fasciitis for 14 months. Tried everything—orthotics, night splints, two cortisone shots. Nothing worked. After 4 sessions with Dr. Rob, the morning heel pain is completely gone. I wish I had found this 10 months ago.

- Sarah M., Marathon Runner, Wayne NJ

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Saved my career."

As a police officer, I'm on my feet 10 hours a day. My Achilles tendonitis had gotten so bad I was considering disability. Shockwave fixed it when surgery was the only other option. Dr. Rob's treatment literally saved my career.

- Officer Michael R., Pompton Lakes

Common Questions

How many sessions will I need?

Most patients see significant improvement in 3-5 sessions. Chronic cases (symptoms over 12 months) may need 5-7 sessions. We treat once a week to allow your body time to heal. Dr. Rob evaluates your progress after each visit and adjusts the plan as needed.

Does it hurt?

It's uncomfortable but tolerable (most patients rate it 4/10 for pain). It feels like a rapid tapping sensation. Dr. Rob adjusts the intensity to your comfort level throughout the session. Any mild soreness typically resolves within 24 hours. No anesthesia is needed.

Can I walk afterwards?

Yes. There is zero downtime. You can drive yourself home and return to work immediately. We recommend avoiding high-impact activities like running or jumping for 48 hours after each session, but normal walking and daily activities are fine.

How quickly will I feel relief?

Many patients notice reduced morning heel pain within 48-72 hours after the first session. However, complete healing takes time. You'll experience progressive improvement over 4-6 weeks as new collagen forms and inflammation decreases. Most patients report 70-80% improvement by their 5th session.

How is this different from cortisone shots?

Cortisone injections provide temporary relief (typically 6-12 weeks) but can weaken the plantar fascia over time and increase rupture risk. Shockwave actually stimulates healing of damaged tissue at the cellular level, addressing the root cause rather than masking symptoms. Results are longer-lasting without the risks of repeated steroid injections.

Is it covered by insurance?

No However, it is significantly cheaper than surgery ($15,000-$30,000) or endless PT co-pays. Most patients find it's worth the investment for lasting results. We offer packages to make it affordable and accept HSA/FSA cards
