Shockwave Therapy Murrieta, CA
Shockwave therapy is used for anything that has become damaged, whether it is bony tissue, soft tissue, or nerve tissue. It stimulates the production and regrowth of damaged tissue, targeting the body to start the repair process.
At California Oaks Chiropractic, Dr. Phillip Vournazos, D.C., uses focal wave shockwave therapy as a regenerative tool. It is typically used after the underlying biomechanical issue has been corrected, making it an important part of the overall treatment plan.
We have used shockwave therapy to treat cervical, thoracic, and lumbar degeneration, joint degeneration, nerve damage, nerve compression, torn labrums, knee degeneration, shoulder injuries, and more.
If you are experiencing pain from a degenerative or damaged condition, call (951) 698-2511 to book an appointment.
