Shockwave Therapy

WHAT IS SHOCKWAVE THERAPY?

Shockwave therapy is an effective non-surgical treatment for acute, sub-acute and chronic soft tissue injuries, pain and bony conditions.

A shockwave is an acoustic wave which carries high energy to target areas. The energy waves gradually disrupt scar tissue and stimulate an inflammatory response, which in turn increases blood flow and enhances cell regeneration. These processes collectively speed up the healing process of that tissue, helping to reduce pain and restore function.

It can be used for a number of injuries and conditions, including plantar fasciopathy, achilles tendinopathy, shin splints, patella tendinopathy, gluteal tendinopathy, trochanteric bursitis, tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, myofascial trigger points, lower back pain and calcific tendonitis of the rotator cuff muscles.

For every condition, the science recommends 6 sessions.

Based on a combination of evidence from the NICE guidelines, along with recommendations from British Athletics, we space these sessions out at 3-7 days intervals for optimum effect.

"I was referred to Jen at the Whiteley Surgery by my employer for a back injury. Over the five sessions she has been nothing but fantastic, helping to completely resolve my primary back complaint, as well as encouraging exercises and stretching to address a couple of minor problems which should help prevent further back issues in the future. An absolute star. Recommend 100%."

Paul Haly

"Very impressed with both the organisation of the clinic and Kerry Jones, who has not only helped me with my damaged hamstring, but helped me improve my running technique. I highly recommend this company."

Pete Marsdon

"I used this provider for their running clinic. The practitioner at Jonathan Clark (Kerry) was knowledgeable and friendly. She was able to flawlessly identify my postural weaknesses and gave me good tips and targeted exercises to improve my running. The overall experience was pleasant and will definitely use again."

"A massive thank you to Liam Newton. He has gone above and beyond to help me recover after a road traffic accident, and now, I am totally recovered. The overall service from Liam at Jonathan Clark's is outstanding. Liam is a credit to this company."

Mark C

"I saw Liam with a dislocated shoulder. He was kind, supportive, and worked hard to make sure I was getting, understanding and doing the exact exercises I needed to get back to full functionality and strength. Not only was he excellent at progressing me through the right exercises, he worked with me to find a substitute when I just couldn't (mentally or physically) do an exercise. I'm now back to rock climbing again, and have not lost any functionality."

Adrian Chapman

"Came in with a niggling injury stopping me competing in races, and after a series of exercises and number of sessions am nearly back running the distances I need. Well worth taking time to see a professional!"

Daniel Lard

"As someone who has reoccurring sciatica and has seen many different physiotherapists over the years, I have to say that Jonathan Clark Physiotherapy has been the best! From the first time I made contact, to attending my appointments and then finally being discharged; the service has been amazing. Jonathan and his team work extremely hard to ensure you have everything you need. The service is extremely personal with a plan to suit your strengths, areas of weakness and ensure you are continually improving. I would recommend Jonathan and his team to my friends, family and anyone who is in need of a great physiotherapist. Thanks again!"

Fay Draper

"Just wanted to let you know that Nick is doing a great job with me. I was on a bit of a downer today, feeling like I wasn’t ever going to get there despite my hard work and feeling like I was doing all the right things. Nick was very reassuring, took the time to explain what was going on with my muscles and why and continued to give me helpful tools and tips. I left feeling much better both physically and mentally."

Angela Day

“I’ve just been for an initial consultation with Jonathan and I was very impressed. I was not sure what to expect but he made me feel very much at ease and the diagnosis and treatment plan were explained in a thoughtful and easy-to-understand way. I highly recommend him and his team! Thank you.”

Martin McKenzie

"Many years ago, after a fall from a horse, I was treated by a Sports Masseur who worked with Atletico Madrid football club and he had his own ‘cabinet’ of physiotherapy. He was the best I have known – until now! Thank you Ricky! You really found the source of the problem!"

Rosamund Brook

"Really impressed. I’ve never been to see a physiotherapist before so I didn’t know what to expect, but I was made to feel welcome and at home. Highly recommended."

Matt Phillips

"Jonathan has restored me to full working order twice, when I was in severe pain and unable to function normally. His diagnostic skills are superb and his treatment and care are always calming and effective. He will always be my first port of call for help and support"
