Shockwave Therapy for Heel Pain
Find Relief from Chronic Heel Pain with Shockwave Therapy in Markham
Shockwave therapy is a safe and highly effective treatment option for chronic, persistent heel pain and heel spurs. This innovative heel pain treatment uses high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate healing and help reduce localized heel and plantar fascia inflammation. Shockwave therapy can help you get back to being pain-free with minimal downtime in as little as three sessions.
Shockwave therapy requires no anaesthesia and has minimal to no side-effects. Depending on your condition you can normally return to work after your treatment and may be able to continue to exercise immediately following treatment. With the Swiss Dolorclast Shockwave Device, 3 to 5 weekly sessions are required to successfully treat most patients. Symptoms may improve significantly after the first couple of treatments, however it is important to understand that the healing process continues for up to 3 months following the final treatment.

How Shockwave Therapy Works
Shockwave therapy activates the body’s self healing process to reduce pain by:
- Increasing metabolic activity
- Improved blood circulation & formation of new blood vessels
- Cell regeneration & collagen synthesis
- Stimulates nerves to reduce localized sensitivity
- Break up calcification within the tendon or fascia
- Analgesic & anti-inflammatory effect
