Why Shockwave Therapy?

Catalyze Healing, Naturally

Shockwaves deliver controlled acoustic energy that stimulates circulation, collagen growth, and growth factor release to “jump-start” tissue repair.

Clinically Supported for Musculoskeletal Pain

Studies show shockwave therapy provides better pain relief and functional improvement in chronic low back pain compared to many conventional approaches.

Non-Invasive, Minimal Downtime

No incisions, no anesthesia, just targeted therapy — get back to life quickly with fewer side effects.

Versatile Across Conditions

Effective for tendon injuries, joint pain, calcific deposits, trigger points, and chronic back or neck pain.

Conditions We Treat

  • Back and neck pain
  • Tendonitis & tendinopathies
  • Plantar fasciitis / heel pain
  • Calcific deposits in joints or tendons
  • Joint pain from degeneration or overuse
  • Trigger point / myofascial pain

How it works

Assess & Map

We use diagnostics and biomechanics to locate the exact tissues needing regeneration.

Stimulate & Repair

The energy delivers controlled mechanical stress that recruits healing cells, reduces inflammation, disrupts pain signaling, and reboots tissue regeneration.

Precision Energy Delivery

Using focused shockwaves, we deliver targeted energy at the optimal depth and intensity.

Follow & Optimize

We monitor progress and pair the therapy with rehabilitation, functional training, or adjunct regenerative treatment, such as PRP, to maximize results.

What our patients are saying

Thank goodness I found Dr. Farnad. I was in excruciating pain due to back problems and after receiving an MRI, was told I needed to see a spinal surgeon. I was referred to Dr. Farnad, and when I called his office Eva was SO kind and accomplishing. They could tell how much pain and agony I was in, and made it possible for me to come in the same day. Dr. Farnad was very knowledgeable and immediately pinpointed the issue. He answered all of my questions and had great bedside manner. If you want to feel like a priority and get quick answers, I definitely recommend coming to Dr. Farnad.
