Question 1

Where is shockwave therapy offered?

Accepted Answer

Shockwave Therapy is offered exclusively at our flagship Shelburne clinic (119 Adeline Street). It is not available at our Orangeville satellite location.

Question 2

What is shockwave therapy and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

Shockwave therapy delivers focused acoustic sound waves into damaged soft tissue to stimulate cellular repair, increase blood flow, break down calcific deposits, and trigger neovascularization. It accelerates healing of chronic tendinopathies that haven't responded to conventional treatment alone.

Question 3

Does shockwave therapy hurt?

Accepted Answer

You may feel some discomfort during treatment as the sound waves are applied, but it's generally well tolerated and brief. Any soreness afterward is usually mild and resolves within 24–48 hours. Your physiotherapist in Shelburne or Orangeville adjusts intensity to keep you comfortable.

Question 4

How many shockwave sessions will I need?

Accepted Answer

A typical course is 3–5 sessions spaced about a week apart, depending on your condition and how long you've had it. Many patients notice improvement after the first 1–2 sessions at our Shelburne or Orangeville clinic.

Question 5

What conditions does shockwave therapy treat near Orangeville?

Accepted Answer

Shockwave therapy is effective for plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinopathy, tennis elbow, calcific shoulder tendinopathy, and patellar tendinopathy—stubborn conditions common among active residents across Orangeville, Shelburne, and Tottenham.
