Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy
Non-invasive breakthrough solution to alleviate pain in the feet.
Advanced Footcare provides to its patients a breakthrough solution to alleviate pain in the feet. This non-invasive procedure in which shock waves are used is known as Extra-Corporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) or also known as Extra Corporeal Activation Technique (EPAT). This procedure has been used to treat over 2.5 million patients. This non-surgical treatment involves the delivery of sound energy or shock waves to affected areas of the body, triggering the body's own natural repair mechanisms and stimulating healing.
How the Treatment Works
This treatment is performed when a therapeutic flow of energy is transferred directly to the ailing area through a handheld applicator used by the physicians at Advanced Footcare. This highly effective treatment may yield complete results after 3–4 sessions, each lasting less than 5–10 minutes and scheduled 7–10 days apart.
