We are thrilled to announce the addition of Shockwave Therapy to our range of treatments.
This innovative technology is transforming how we approach conditions such as:
Shockwave Therapy works by delivering radial sound waves to the site of injury. These low-energy acoustic waves penetrate the skin, focusing energy directly on the affected area.
The treatment increases blood flow, promotes the healing process, and reduces pain, all while breaking down stubborn calcifications if these are present.
During your session, a hand-held device directs focused sound waves to the treatment area. Ultrasound gel is used to ensure the waves reach the tissues effectively.
Your osteopath will tailor the treatment protocol to your needs, frequently checking in to optimise your comfort and results.
Your initial 45-minute consultation involves:
If Shockwave Therapy is appropriate, treatment may begin during this session or in subsequent visits.
The therapy itself involves applying sound waves via a handheld device, using mild pressure and ultrasound gel for optimal delivery. Your osteopath will adjust the intensity to ensure maximum comfort and effectiveness.
To celebrate the launch of this exciting, cutting-edge treatment modality, we’re offering a FREE trial course of treatments during the month of February! All we ask is that you share your experience with us through a feedback form and a review following your treatment.

The MODUS ESWT device delivers acoustic waves into the affected area, creating controlled microtrauma that:
Treatment is cumulative, meaning each session builds on the last. Most patients need 3-6 sessions, typically once a week. Chronic conditions may require more sessions.
Shockwave therapy is well-tolerated, but temporary side effects may include:
