Shockwave / acoustic pressure therapy
Evidence maturityFocused acoustic waves delivered to bone, tendon and ligament to stimulate local blood flow, cellular signalling and remodelling. In my protocols it is used for targeted bone-density work and to accelerate tendon and ligament healing later in surgical recovery.
Effects are local to the treated area, which is exactly why it pairs well with a systemic program: nutrition and loading do the whole-body work; shockwave amplifies the signal where it matters most.
