Shockwave Therapy in SE Calgary AB

Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive/non-surgical therapy that uses high level acoustic energy waves. We are able to transmit them into the body without damaging the tissue that the waves pass through on their way to the target area. This treatment will trigger a series of natural healing and regenerative effects. It can break up scar tissue, release adhesions, assist with inflammation and more!
