Stubborn pain that will not clear up, no matter how long you rest it?

Plantar fasciitis, tennis or golfer's elbow, shoulder, Achilles, knee or hip pain that has not settled on its own. The first step is finding out what is actually causing it.

Jamie went from struggling to grip a racket to playing squash and badminton again

Months of elbow pain had left her wondering if she would play again. Hear what changed, in her own words.

Jamie's experience is personal to her. Results vary, and Shockwave Therapy is not suitable for every person or condition.

The kind of pain that does not go away on its own

Some injuries settle with rest. Others dig in and stay, often the ones tied to tendons and the tissue around a joint. Shockwave Therapy is used for several of these persistent problems.

Plantar fasciitis
Persistent heel and arch pain, often worst on the first steps of the day.
Tennis or golfer's elbow
Pain and weakness when gripping, lifting or turning.
Shoulder pain
Discomfort that limits reaching, lifting or overhead movement.
Achilles pain
Stiffness and pain at the back of the heel, often worse with activity.
Knee pain
Tendon-related pain that lingers around the joint.
Hip pain
Persistent pain on the outside of the hip or deep in the joint.

If one of these sounds like what you have been living with, an assessment is how you find out whether Shockwave Therapy is a sensible option for you.

When pain stops being just about one activity

It rarely stays where it started. What begins on the court, on a run or in the gym follows you into work and into the small movements you never used to think about.

Take your first steps in the morning
Grip a racket, club or gym equipment
Lift or carry everyday objects
Walk, climb stairs or stand for long periods
Return to training after rest
Repeat the same movement at work

You may have already tried resting it, stretching it, or waiting for it to clear. When it has not, there is usually a reason. The next step is a proper assessment to find out what that reason is.

Why the assessment comes before any treatment

Shockwave Therapy is not the right answer for every type of pain, and recommending it without examining you first would not be honest. That is why the appointment starts with an assessment.

  • Discuss your symptoms and how long they have affected you
  • Assess the painful area
  • Check your movement, strength and function
  • Decide whether Shockwave Therapy may be suitable
  • Explain the recommended treatment options
  • Answer your questions before anything begins
Assessment price £60 Appointment length 30 minutes

What happens after your assessment

You leave knowing where you stand. Here is how it works.

Step 01

Your condition is assessed

The physiotherapist examines the painful area and discusses how it affects your sport, work and everyday activities.

Step 02

You receive a clear recommendation

You are told whether Shockwave Therapy may be suitable, or whether another option would be more appropriate for you.

Step 03

Your next steps are explained

If treatment is recommended, the physiotherapist explains what it involves, how many appointments may be needed and the cost.

There is no promise that Shockwave Therapy will be recommended. The assessment comes first.
