Available at Shiloh, Columbia, Highland, Troy, St. Charles
When chronic pain keeps you from enjoying life’s precious moments, shockwave therapy offers hope through cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment. At ChiroPro, we’re proud to bring this breakthrough technology to families throughout the St. Louis region, helping patients find lasting relief without drugs or surgery.
What Is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave therapy uses high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate your body’s natural healing processes. This FDA-cleared treatment delivers controlled pulses of energy directly to injured or painful areas, triggering increased blood flow, tissue regeneration, and pain reduction. The result is a powerful, drug-free approach to healing that works with your body’s own remarkable ability to restore itself.
The Science Behind Your Healing
During treatment, one of our experienced doctors applies a specialized handheld device to the affected area. The device generates acoustic waves that penetrate deep into your tissues, breaking up scar tissue and calcifications while promoting the formation of new blood vessels. This process, called neovascularization, brings fresh oxygen and nutrients to damaged tissues, accelerating healing and reducing inflammation naturally.
The treatment also stimulates your body’s production of natural pain-relieving compounds and helps restore normal tissue function. Many patients experience significant improvement after just a few sessions, with results that continue to develop over the following weeks as your body’s healing response progresses.
Conditions We Treat With Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy has shown remarkable success in treating a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, including:
- Plantar fasciitis
- Tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow
- Shoulder pain and rotator cuff injuries
- Achilles tendonitis
- Chronic back pain
- Knee pain and patellar tendonitis
- Hip discomfort and bursitis

Whether you’re dealing with a recent injury or long-standing chronic pain that hasn’t responded to traditional care, shockwave therapy may be the natural solution you’ve been searching for.
What Are the Benefits?
Shockwave therapy offers many advantages for patients seeking natural pain relief. This non-invasive treatment requires no surgery, medications, or downtime, allowing you to resume your daily activities immediately after each session. Most patients experience lasting results that improve over time as the body’s natural healing continues.
Another plus? The treatment is quick, typically taking just 15 to 20 minutes per session, and works effectively on conditions that haven’t responded to other conservative treatments. Best of all, shockwave therapy addresses the root cause of your pain rather than simply masking symptoms.
What to Expect During Your Treatment
Your shockwave therapy session is comfortable and straightforward. Most patients describe the sensation as tolerable, often likening it to a deep-tissue massage. You’ll remain fully clothed during treatment, and no anesthesia is required.
Most conditions respond best to a series of treatments, usually 3 to 6 sessions scheduled about 1 week apart. Our doctors will create a personalized treatment plan based on your specific condition and healing goals, ensuring you receive the comprehensive care that’s made ChiroPro the trusted choice for natural health care.
