Shockwave therapy in Hamburg

What this is

In shockwave therapy, mechanical pressure waves are directed precisely into the tissue. It is used above all for stubborn tendon complaints and calcifications, usually over several sessions and always in combination with treatment and rebuilding, never as a stand-alone measure.

Focused, not diffuse

We work with focused shockwave. It concentrates the energy on a precisely defined point at depth, which means we can work where the examination actually found something.

Questions about this service

Frequently asked

Does it hurt?

The treatment is clearly noticeable and briefly uncomfortable on sensitive spots, but easy to tolerate. The intensity is adjusted as we go. A session takes only a few minutes.

How many sessions will I need?

That depends on the findings. Three to five sessions about a week apart is typical. After the first two we look together at how you are responding and adjust the plan.

When should it not be used?

Among other things with clotting disorders, on blood-thinning medication, with acute infections in the treatment area and during pregnancy. We ask about these before the first session.
