Shockwave Therapy in Lexington KY

Description: Heel pain is typically the result of overuse, but can be caused by a major injury. Heel pain usually occurs on the back or underside of your heel.
Ankle pain or a sprain is often the result of a forceful twisting of the ankle causing a tear of ligaments in the ankle, in which no bones are broken.

 Ankle pain, swelling, bluish discoloration, pain with walking, slight increased warmth to the injured area.

Treatment: Ask your doctor about Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT®).
 EPAT® is an innovative, non-invasive way to treat pain. It is based on a unique set of pressure waves that stimulate the metabolism, enhance blood circulation, and accelerate the healing process. Damaged tissue gradually regenerates and eventually heals.
 As an alternative to surgery, the procedure includes 3-5 in-office sessions approximately 5-10 minutes each at weekly intervals.
