Don't put up with chronic pain - treat it in a non-invasive way with shockwave therapy
Do you have a long-term musculoskeletal injury that is not responding to other treatment? Shockwave therapy (not as shocking as it sounds!) is available at Albany Core Clinic on Auckland's North Shore
Localised pain or tenderness in your joints and tendons can be debilitating if it occurs on a regular or long-term basis. If you have been suffering pain after a sports injury to your knee or elbow, or are dealing with a long-term issue such as plantar fasciitis or calcifying tendinitis and have been unable to find a satisfactory treatment you might want to consider shockwave therapy.
Shockwave therapy is considered to be a good alternative to other treatment plans including medication and often brings results in cases where other treatment has failed.
Core Clinic believes this treatment could be beneficial for many of our patients both for physiotherapy and podiatry cases, so we have invested in our own shockwave therapy machine. This enables us to deliver therapy at our clinic every day making it easier for you to access treatment.
To see if shockwave therapy might be right for you, make an appointment with one of our team.
