A nagging pain in your heel, shoulder, or elbow that won't fade with rest can turn simple movements into a daily struggle. Stretching helps for a little while, then the ache creeps back. Over-the-counter pain relievers only go so far. When months go by without real improvement, it's natural to wonder what else is out there.
Traditional medicine often jumps straight to injections or surgery when pain like this lingers. A more conservative option is often worth trying first. It's a focused, noninvasive way to help your body heal the tissue causing the pain. At Integrated Medical, we see this treatment as one part of a bigger plan. Our team combines it with chiropractic care and physical rehabilitation under one roof. Nothing falls through the cracks.
UNDERSTANDING
What is Shockwave Therapy?
This treatment uses a handheld device to send focused pressure waves into sore or irritated tissue just beneath your skin. During treatment, a provider applies gel to the area. The provider moves the device slowly over the spot that hurts. You'll feel a series of quick pulses, almost like light tapping, with no needles or incisions. Those pulses are designed to boost blood flow and support your body's own tissue repair in the area. Individual results vary.
At Integrated Medical, this treatment fits into a bigger, collaborative care plan built around you. Our team looks past the symptom you came in with. We work to find what's actually driving your pain. This comprehensive approach means your plan reflects your body, not a one-size-fits-all protocol.
Don't struggle alone with pain that isn't improving. Schedule a visit with our team at Integrated Medical. Let our multidisciplinary providers build a plan suited to your body. Support for your pain relief and better function starts with understanding what's really going on.
Chronic Pain
Pain that lingers for months often comes from an old injury, repetitive strain, or years of poor posture. Left untreated, the tissue can stay irritated. Shockwave therapy helps break that cycle by stimulating real healing in the tissue itself. Learn more.
Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia often causes tender points spread across the body. Even light pressure can feel painful. Shockwave therapy targets these areas directly, using focused pulses to boost blood flow and ease sensitivity. Your provider will track how you respond over time. Individual results vary. Learn more.
Neuropathy
Nerve pain, numbness, or tingling in the hands and feet often comes from low blood flow to the nerves. Shockwave therapy boosts circulation in the tissue around them. This gives irritated nerves more oxygen and nutrients to heal, easing the burning or tingling that comes with nerve irritation. Learn more.
ADVANTAGES
Benefits of Shockwave Therapy at Integrated Medical
This treatment offers a noninvasive approach designed to support pain relief without surgery. Additional benefits of the treatment include:
Supporting Tissue Repair, Not Just Pain Relief
The focused pulses boost collagen and encourage new blood vessel growth in the treated tissue. This helps patients with tendon pain that hasn't responded well to rest or stretching. This approach is designed to support tissue repair, not just calm the nerve signal. Individual results vary.
Supporting Your Daily Routines
Treatment is designed to support your goals for pain relief and better function in everyday movements. Your provider will review your progress as your plan unfolds, supporting your goal of working toward moving and living more comfortably. Individual results vary.
A Conservative Alternative
This treatment offers many patients a real alternative to surgery or long-term medication. It works best for less severe cases, or for people who want to try a conservative approach first. A provider can help you understand whether your case is a good fit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is shockwave therapy safe?
Yes, most patients consider it a safe, noninvasive treatment for chronic pain or soft tissue injuries. It doesn't involve needles, incisions, or anesthesia, which keeps the risk of complications low. A provider will still review your health history first to confirm it's a good fit for you.
Does shockwave therapy work?
Many patients feel real improvement, especially when the pain comes from chronic tendon or soft tissue issues that haven't responded to rest alone. Results depend on how long the injury has lasted and what's causing it. Most people need several sessions before they notice a big change.
Is shockwave therapy covered by insurance?
Coverage varies widely depending on your specific insurance plan and the reason for treatment. Some plans cover it for certain diagnoses but not others. The best way to know for certain is to check with your provider or ask our team to help verify your benefits beforehand.
Is shockwave therapy painful?
Most patients describe the sensation as a series of quick pulses or light tapping rather than sharp pain. Some areas feel more sensitive than others, especially if the tissue is already inflamed. Most people tolerate the treatment well without needing any numbing medication.
At Integrated Medical, care isn't divided into separate visits and specialists; it's built around one coordinated plan for each patient. By bringing multiple treatments together under one roof, our team can look at what's really driving a patient's symptoms and address it directly, rather than treating each concern in isolation.
