Afraid you’re one hard landing away from a bigger problem?
Lingering tendon and heel pain often leads to compensations that load other joints. Shockwave is a non-invasive option to stimulate healing — so you don’t have to keep reorganising life around pain.
20-minute, no-obligation chat with a clinician.
If you keep pushing through pain
- Tendons tolerate less load over time, so smaller efforts trigger bigger flare-ups.
- Your mechanics change, irritating knees, hips, or back.
- Missed training blocks erode confidence and momentum.
If you act sooner
- Earlier desensitisation can help restore load tolerance.
- You can address the cause — not just mask symptoms — and stay as active as sensible.
Where Shockwave is commonly used
- Plantar fasciitis / heel pain that hasn’t settled with basics.
- Achilles tendinopathy in runners and multi-directional athletes.
- Calcific shoulder deposits associated with rotator-cuff tendinopathy.
Assessment first. If Shockwave isn’t the right fit, we’ll recommend a better route.
Be honest — what has pain already cost you?
- Shortening runs, skipping hills, or avoiding courts and trails.
- Choosing shoes, seats, and routes based on pain (not preference).
- Saying “no” to weekends away or family activities.
You don’t have to keep reorganising life around a sore spot. Let’s check whether Shockwave belongs in your plan — or if a different route makes more sense (no pressure, no obligation).
What you’ll get in your free discovery visit
- A quick screen to understand your pain story and goals.
- Clarity on whether Shockwave suits your case (and timing).
- A short, written next step you can start immediately.
- (If we’re not the right fit, we’ll point you to someone who is.)
Why act now
Every extra week of “just seeing how it goes” can deepen compensations and make small loads feel bigger. Earlier guidance often means fewer flare-ups, steadier training, and less second-guessing.
