Radial Pressure Wave Therapy

Radial pressure wave therapy (RPW) can help to improve a

variety of medical functions, including chronic pain, musculoskeletal

conditions, tendinopathies, and dermatologic conditions, such as scars. It can

also be used to improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and promote tissue

healing. RPW is a form of treatment that uses acoustic pressure waves to

breakdown knots and restrictions in the myofascial tissue. It is also thought

to stimulate healing, increase circulation and relax muscle tension. Treatment

involves placing a handheld applicator, typically in circular movements, over

the affected area of tissue. RPW is a noninvasive, yet effective form of

therapy commonly used in chiropractic treatments, especially for chronic

muscles and joint tissues. Common benefits seen in RPW treatment including

improved range of motion, decreased inflammation and improved pain levels.
