Experience the Power of Focused Shock Wave Therapy in Concord, Tyngsboro, and Barrington
Are you struggling with chronic pain or a stubborn injury that just won’t heal? At Barbell Therapy & Performance, we understand the frustration and limitations that come with persistent musculoskeletal conditions. That’s why we’re proud to offer Focused Shock Wave Therapy (F-SWT) – a cutting-edge treatment that harnesses the power of sound waves to stimulate deep cell regeneration and reduce pain. If you’re looking for a non-invasive, drug-free solution to help you get back to the activities you love, F-SWT might be the answer you’ve been searching for.
What is Focused Shock Wave Therapy?
F-SWT uses sound waves to cause deep cell stimulation, which produces an inflammatory response. The body responds by increasing metabolic activity around the site of pain. This releases growth factors responsible for tissue regeneration and the initiation of healing processes in the damaged tissues. It is a gold standard treatment for superficial and deep-lying tendinopathies, calcifications, and delayed bone healing conditions. Pain is also diminished through neurologic mechanisms (nociception inhibition).

- Tennis or golfer’s elbow / lateral & medial epicondylitis
