Shockwave Therapy
Non-Invasive Tissue Healing
in Lutz, FL
For chronic tendon pain and stubborn soft tissue injuries that haven't responded to rest, stretching, or injections — shockwave therapy triggers the healing response your body stopped providing on its own.
How PRECISIONWAVE™ Works
Restarting Your Body's Natural Healing Response
Unlike an acute injury, chronic tendon pain often develops because the tissue stops healing properly. Over time, damaged tendons and ligaments become weakened and disorganized, making them difficult to heal with rest, stretching, medications, or repeated cortisone injections.
PRECISIONWAVE™ uses powerful electrohydraulic acoustic waves to stimulate a controlled healing response within the injured tissue. This process encourages increased blood flow, collagen production, cellular activity, and tissue regeneration while helping reduce chronic pain.
Unlike treatments that simply mask symptoms, PRECISIONWAVE™ is designed to promote genuine tissue repair. That's why it has become a trusted treatment among orthopedic specialists, sports medicine physicians, and professional athletic organizations worldwide.

What to Expect
Quick Treatments. Long-Term Healing.
Each PRECISIONWAVE™ session typically lasts 5 to 10 minutes. A handheld applicator delivers acoustic pulses directly into the injured tissue while a conductive gel helps transmit the energy. Treatment intensity is adjusted to your comfort level.
Many patients notice improvement after two or three treatments, although healing continues for weeks as the body remodels the tissue. Most recommendations include three to six sessions spaced approximately one week apart.
At Foundation Chiropractic, we often combine PRECISIONWAVE™ with Upper Cervical Orthospinology, Class IV Laser Therapy, rehabilitation, and supportive therapies to help optimize healing and improve long-term outcomes.
