Shockwave is an acoustic wave which carries high energy to painful areas and soft tissues with subacute, subchronic and chronic conditions. This energy promotes healing, regenerating and reparative processes- unique, noninvasive solution for pain associated with the musculoskeletal system.
ADVANTAGES
Alleviates pain, relieves myospasm, softens scars, and enhances the connectivity of tissues.
Stimulates cellular repair to prevent adhesion and tissue calcification.
Boosts tissue metabolism, fostering improved tissue cell regeneration.
Promotes cell growth, mitigates inflammation, and accelerates wound healing.
Incorporates anti-aging features, providing facial lifting, tightening, and cellulite reduction benefits.
Comprehensive Physical Therapy
with Shockwave Technology
Tendon and Ligament Healing:
Shockwave therapy accelerates the healing process of tendons and ligaments, making it an effective treatment for conditions like tendinopathy and ligament injuries.
Reduction of Chronic Pain:
For patients dealing with chronic pain conditions such as plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, or rotator cuff injuries, shockwave therapy offers targeted relief by addressing the root causes.
Muscle Spasm and Trigger Point Treatment:
By targeting myospasms and trigger points, shockwave therapy aids in the relaxation of muscles, reducing spasms and enhancing overall muscle function.
Enhanced Blood Flow and Circulation:
The therapy promotes increased blood flow to the treated area, facilitating better oxygenation and nutrient supply to promote healing and reduce inflammation.
Scar Tissue Management:
For post-surgical patients or those with previous injuries, shockwave therapy helps manage and minimize the formation of scar tissue, improving tissue flexibility and functionality.
Improved Range of Motion:
Patients seeking to enhance their range of motion benefit from shockwave therapy's ability to stimulate tissue regeneration and reduce stiffness, allowing for better joint mobility.
Non-Invasive Alternative:
Shockwave therapy provides a non-invasive alternative for patients who may be exploring options beyond surgery or medication, offering effective relief with minimal discomfort.
At NYC Physical Therapy, our application of shockwave technology is centered around optimizing physical well-being and recovery. Explore the tailored benefits of shockwave therapy as part of our comprehensive physical therapy approach.
TECAR Technology
Tecar Therapy
Tecar therapy is a cutting-edge treatment method that employs Capacitive and Resistive electric transfer to deliver radio frequency (RF) energy deep into the body. This innovative approach generates controlled heat between two electrodes, facilitating a range of therapeutic benefits. The gentle warmth initiated by Tecar therapy promotes healing processes within the body, optimizing blood circulation for efficient nutrient and oxygen supply to treated areas. This targeted treatment not only enhances circulation but also proves effective in pain management. The soothing heat relaxes muscles, reduces inflammation, and alleviates discomfort, making it invaluable for individuals dealing with musculoskeletal issues or chronic pain. Beyond pain relief, Tecar therapy contributes to overall well-being by activating the body's natural healing mechanisms. In essence, Tecar therapy represents a harmonious fusion of science and technology, providing a comprehensive solution for holistic health and improved quality of life.
