Shockwave Therapy at WildBird Chiropractic & Wellness

Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic sound waves to target musculoskeletal pain and activate the body’s natural healing response. This clinically proven technology helps increase circulation, break down scar tissue, and stimulate tissue regeneration. It’s a safe, effective option for many chronic pain conditions that haven’t responded to traditional care.

At WildBird Chiropractic & Wellness, we use Storz Medical Shockwave Therapy to help patients recover from stubborn injuries and chronic pain. This advanced treatment uses targeted acoustic pressure waves to improve circulation, break down scar tissue, and activate the body’s natural healing response.

Shockwave therapy is especially helpful for long-standing muscle, tendon, and joint issues that haven’t improved with rest or traditional care. We often recommend it for conditions such as plantar fasciitis, tennis or golfer’s elbow, shoulder tendinopathy, hip bursitis, and chronic muscle tension. It can also speed recovery from overuse injuries and help restore mobility and strength.

Because the Storz system delivers precise, focused energy, treatments are comfortable, quick, and highly effective. Most patients notice meaningful improvement within a few sessions. When paired with chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue work, or rehabilitative exercise, it supports long-term healing and better overall function.

If you’ve been dealing with persistent pain or tightness that just won’t go away, Shockwave Therapy at WildBird Chiropractic & Wellness can help you move easier, recover faster, and get back to feeling like yourself again.

How It Works

During a shockwave therapy session, high-energy acoustic pulses are delivered to the affected area using a handheld applicator. These pulses create microtrauma in the tissues, which triggers the body to increase blood flow, recruit healing cells, and break down calcified or fibrotic tissue. This response helps speed up the repair of damaged muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia.

Each treatment takes just five to ten minutes. There is no need for medication, no downtime, and minimal discomfort. Most patients feel improvement after a few sessions, with continued healing in the weeks that follow.



Conditions It Can Help

Shockwave therapy is effective for a wide range of musculoskeletal issues, including:
  • Plantar fasciitis and heel pain
  • Tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow
  • Shoulder tendinopathies (e.g., rotator cuff irritation)
  • Hip bursitis or gluteal tendinopathy
  • Shin splints
  • Chronic trigger points or muscle tension
It’s especially useful for injuries that have become chronic or stubborn due to scar tissue or poor healing.



Who Can Benefit

Shockwave therapy is ideal for active adults, athletes, and anyone dealing with persistent pain that limits movement or performance. It’s also a great option if you’re looking to avoid more invasive treatments like corticosteroid injections or surgery.

Whether you’re recovering from overuse, compensating for old injuries, or managing pain from long hours on your feet, this therapy supports faster healing and improved function—naturally.



Why Consider Shockwave Therapy

If other treatments haven’t worked or progress has stalled, shockwave therapy could be the missing piece. It’s non-invasive, drug-free, and grounded in solid clinical research. Best of all, it activates your own healing capacity rather than masking symptoms.


At WildBird Chiropractic & Wellness, we integrate shockwave therapy into customized care plans designed to restore movement, reduce pain, and help you get back to doing what you love.
