Shockwave Therapy in Sanford, FL

Shockwave therapy at Journey Spinal Care is a non-invasive treatment designed to support healing in chronic or stubborn soft tissue conditions. It is commonly used when pain or tissue irritation has not responded well to rest, exercise, or other conservative treatments.

Shockwave may be used on its own or as part of a personalized care plan alongside chiropractic care or bodywork.

What Is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave therapy uses targeted acoustic waves to stimulate the body’s natural healing response in injured or irritated tissue. These waves help increase circulation, encourage tissue repair, and address areas that have become slow to heal over time.

Unlike ultrasound, shockwave therapy delivers a mechanical stimulus designed to activate healing rather than simply support tissue recovery.

What Shockwave Therapy May Help With

Shockwave therapy may be helpful for conditions such as:

Tendon pain (such as Achilles, patellar, or rotator cuff-related pain)
Plantar fasciitis
Chronic muscle tightness
Trigger points and localized soft tissue pain
Areas of pain that have not responded well to other treatments

Care recommendations are always based on your exam findings and clinical presentation.

What to Expect During Shockwave Treatment

During treatment, a handheld device delivers a series of acoustic pulses to the targeted area. Most patients describe the sensation as a tapping or pulsing feeling.

Treatment intensity is adjusted based on comfort and tolerance, and sessions are typically brief and focused.

How We Use Shockwave at Journey Spinal Care

At Journey Spinal Care, shockwave therapy is used intentionally and selectively based on clinical findings. It is often combined with chiropractic care or bodywork to support movement, reduce tissue strain, and improve overall outcomes.

Shockwave is not a one-size-fits-all treatment, and we will determine if it is appropriate for you during your exam.
