What is Shockwave Therapy?

Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) is a safe, non-invasive procedure that stimulates the body’s natural healing process. It can relieve pain and promote healing of injured tendons, ligaments and many other musculoskeletal issues. It uses high pressured acoustic shockwaves that travel through the skin to break down targeted tissue and stimulate tissue repair.

What Are The Benefits Of Shockwave Therapy?

Relieve pain caused by soft tissue, bone and joint injuries
Stimulates blood circulation in surrounding soft tissues, damaged tissues then begin to repair
Beginning of healing process triggered by stem cells activation
Promotes restoration of tissue and joint mobility
Safe and non-invasive treatment
Fast and effective pain relief

What Conditions Does Shockwave Therapy Help With?

Shockwave Therapy can be modulated in different ways depending on your condition. These variables include energy flux density, number of impulses, frequency of treatment sessions, area of application, etc. By adjusting treatment protocol variables for your specific musculoskeletal or soft tissue injury, this treatment is able to safely treat conditions including:

Rotator cuff tendinopathy
Frozen shoulder
Lateral elbow epicondylopathy (Tennis's Elbow)
Medial elbow epicondylopathy (Golfer's Elbow)
Hamstring tendinopathy
Patellar tendinopathy (Pain in the tendon below the kneecap)
Achilles tendinitis
Plantar fasciopathy (Heel Pain)
Bone stress injuries

Does Shockwave Therapy Hurt?

During the session, you will feel a strong ‘tapping’ sensation with each shockwave on the skin, and the treatment usually lasts 10-15 minutes. Most patients report some discomfort during the treatment, but most do not find it painful and are able to tolerate it well. The amount of discomfort depends in part on the person, their injury, and whether the damaged tissues are close to a bone. (Treatments delivered closer to a bone are generally more uncomfortable.) But in general, we keep the power well within your own personal tolerance level.?

Can anyone administer Shockwave treatment?

There are currently no guidelines to shockwave administration in Singapore. However Shockwave therapy effectiveness is heavily influenced by practitioner skill set and knowledge. A firm understanding of human anatomy as well as shock depths and speeds play a crucial role in achieving targeted incomes. The Chiropractic team at Live Well have all been trained by the EMS team and continue to refresh their knowledge as new research and findings are documented.

I had suffer lower back slip disc at my L4 bone for 13 years. Way back, i had went to hospital for MRI scan, refer to bone specialist and even tried TCM but non of them work well. Time and money spend in the past but the aching/pain just cannot resolve hence at one point of time i had already given up the hope for my slip disc and have the mind set to just live with the pain forever. Recently, happen to saw Chiropractic Ads in my facebook so i decided to give it a try. Did some research online and found LiveWell Sengkang so decided to give it a last tried. Dr Siew Wei was my chiropractor. After 2 session with Dr Siew Wei, realize my back was not as ache as before and surprisingly my body movement had improved as previously due to the aching/pain my body movement when straightening my back is like having this one to two sec pain/aching lag time whenever i bend down and up to do thing. Somehow, Chiropractic improve my body movement and daily lifestyle so I decided to sign up for a 20 session with Dr Siew Wei to continue maintaining my back ache. Overall, i feel the time and money spend is really worth here as I can really see the result here after 2 session with Dr Siew Wei.

I had an ankle surgery 6 months ago and with a scoliosis, it definitely affected my walking during rehabilitation. And I also suffered from severe back pain. with proper exercises, stretching and Chiropractic treatment with Dr. Jessie. I definitely feel a huge improvement on my walking and there’s lesser back pain. Dr. Jessie is a very well versed Chiropractor, she is also very friendly and tends to every patient with different specific treatment. I had chiro treatment done few years back and this is definitely a better clinic! Also I would like to thank the counter staff for always being flexible with my timing.

Made an appt after feeling stiff necks and shoulders. Attended to by Dr Kenney. Recommended to do an x-ray and realised I have cervical neck. Now midway to the treatment and feeling much better. Even the chest tightness I used to have, is also better now (yes, chest tightness or pain can be caused by chiropractic issues). Definitely recommend - most of time, the appt are punctual and treatments are fast.

Dr Kenney is very professional and patient. He will check with you any pain and adjust treatment accordingly. There is no pain for doing chiropractic unlike surgery. Though it will take some times to improve body condition progressively.
