Acoustic Wave THerapy

  • Reduce Scar Tissue, trigger points and musculoskeletal pain

  • Improve mobility and range of motion

Acoustic Wave Therapy (Well Wave) is used for the treatment of acute and chronic pain in muscles, tendons and joints. Well Wave uses acoustic sound waves generated to treat tissue at varying depths to compress and manipulate soft tissues for specific, targeted pain relief.

Your Well Wave treatment will be administered by one IOC’s clinical staff, specifically trained to apply Well Wave protocols for a multitude of treatment areas and specific pain conditions.

Acoustic Wave Therapy (also known as Well Wave) is an excellent treatment to use alongside regular chiropractic or physical therapy.

 FAQs

  • Well Wave is performed fully clothed. Please wear loose, comfortable clothing that allows for easy access of the treatment area, such as shorts and sports tops.

  • Well Wave therapy is used to find and release trigger points and scar tissue. When the therapy source is directed correctly you will feel a deep ache that may mimic your pain and refer to another area. Discomfort during a session is actually a good thing, that means the Well Wave is on the correct area that is involved in your pain. Your clinician will be sure to keep the treatment within a range you can tolerate.

  • Because every body is unique, there is no blanket statement for treatment time. However, it is generally recommended you initially have 1-2 sessions per week for up to 4-6 sessions. Some will feel immediate relief and may only need 1-2 sessions in total, others may need multiple session before relief is felt.

  • No. You do not have to be a current chiropractic or physical therapy patient to receive Well Wave at IOC. However, we do believe that combined care with our doctors and Well Wave therapy will help you achieve the best results.
