Shockwave Therapy Milwaukee Clinic

Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic pressure waves to target certain painful areas of the body. It is commonly used for stubborn tendon and soft-tissue conditions to help relieve pain, support recovery, and improve mobility, without injections or surgery.

Shockwave therapy may help with conditions such as plantar fasciitis, heel pain, tennis elbow, Achilles tendinopathy, patellar tendinopathy, and certain shoulder and hip tendon problems. Dr. Spencer Kronz can evaluate your symptoms to determine whether treatment is appropriate for your condition.

Most patients describe treatment as tapping or pulsing against the skin. Sensitive areas may feel uncomfortable, but the intensity can be adjusted.

Some patients notice improvement after their first few treatments, while others experience gradual relief over several weeks. Results depend on your condition, how long you have had symptoms, and your individual response to treatment.

Most treatment plans involve a series of sessions rather than a single visit. The recommended number depends on your condition and response to therapy. Dr. Kronz will discuss a personalized treatment plan during your evaluation.

Yes. Shockwave therapy is an established treatment option for some patients with persistent plantar fasciitis, especially when other conservative treatments have not provided enough relief. It usually reduces heel pain and makes walking and everyday activities more comfortable.

For certain conditions, shockwave therapy may be considered as part of a non-surgical treatment plan. It offers an option worth discussing before more invasive procedures are considered.

Shockwave therapy is generally well tolerated when used appropriately. It may not be suitable for everyone, so Dr. Kronz will review relevant medical factors and determine whether it is an appropriate treatment option for you.
