Shockwave therapy in Covington, LA

What Is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive, FDA-cleared treatment that uses high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate your body’s natural healing processes. These shockwaves increase blood flow, break up scar tissue, reduce inflammation, and accelerate tissue repair.

At Wellness in Motion Chiropractic in Covington, LA, we use advanced radial shockwave technology to help patients recover faster, reduce pain without medication, and return to their normal activities sooner.

How Shockwave Therapy Works

Shockwave therapy delivers controlled pulses of acoustic energy into injured or painful tissues. These sound waves:

Increase circulation to damaged areas
Stimulate collagen production
Break down calcifications and scar tissue
Reduce muscle tension and trigger points
Activate the body’s natural repair processes

Most patients feel relief after just a few sessions, with long-lasting improvement as the tissues continue to heal.
