ESWT — A Different Way to Release Trigger Points and Muscle Tension
ESWT delivers high-energy acoustic waves via a device, targeting trigger points and muscle tension with consistent, repeatable pressure session after session — a different mechanism from manual release technique.

What ESWT Treats
- Trigger points and muscle knots
- Chronic tension unresolved by manual therapy alone
- Tendon-related pain (plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow)
- Recovery support for athletes
How It Works

Sessions are spaced 4 days apart. For a single treatment area, 3 to 4 sessions is typically sufficient.
