STEMWAVE SHOCKWAVE
If you've been dealing with a chronic tendon injury, stubborn heel pain, or soft tissue damage that hasn't responded to other treatments, StemWave Shockwave Therapy might be the breakthrough you've been looking for. At Well Co. Chiropractic in Sarasota, we're proud to offer this cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment that's changing the way people recover from chronic pain.
What is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave therapy uses acoustic sound waves, delivered directly into damaged or irritated tissue, to stimulate the body's own healing response. It's not a shock in the electrical sense; it's more like a targeted pulse of energy that penetrates deep into tissue to jumpstart repair at the cellular level.
Shockwave therapy has been used for decades in sports medicine and orthopedic settings, and the research behind it is strong. It's particularly effective for chronic conditions where the body's normal healing has slowed down or stalled.
What is StemWave?
StemWave is a focused shockwave system that delivers precise, consistent energy to targeted areas. Unlike some older systems, StemWave is designed to reach deeper tissue layers without discomfort, and without requiring injections or surgery. Dr. Sandy uses StemWave as a standalone treatment or in combination with other techniques at Well Co. to accelerate healing and deliver lasting results.
How Does It Work?
When tissue becomes chronically irritated, especially tendons, fascia, and muscle attachments, the normal healing process tends to stall. Blood flow decreases, collagen quality declines, and the area becomes a source of persistent pain. Shockwave therapy helps reverse this by:
Increasing local blood flow to the treated area
Stimulating cellular repair and regeneration
Encouraging new collagen formation
Reducing chronic pain signaling at the nerve level
Rather than masking symptoms, shockwave therapy works to change how the tissue itself behaves, so you're not just feeling better temporarily, you're actually healing.
What Conditions Does Shockwave Therapy Treat?
Plantar fasciitis and heel pain
Achilles tendinopathy
Patellar tendinopathy (jumper's knee)
Rotator cuff tendinopathy
Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis)
Chronic low back pain
Calcific tendinitis
Hip and gluteal pain
