If you are looking for an alternative to surgery and prescription medication for hip pain, you should consider shockwave therapy. At Amplify Chiropractic and Wellness, our chiropractor Dr. Josh Rinaldi offers a combination of focused and radial shockwave therapy for hip pain in Poughkeepsie, NY. Let’s take a look at the benefits of combining these treatment options.

Understanding Focused and Radial Shockwave Therapy

Both focused and radial shockwave therapy are nonsurgical, non-invasive, and drug-free treatment options for chronic pain, stiffness, inflammation, and loss of range of motion caused by repetitive stress or overuse. Dr. Rinaldi can use shockwave therapy to treat sports injuries and work injuries like tendonitis, bursitis, arthritis, and tendon and ligament strains.

Shockwave Therapy as an Alternative to Hip Replacement

We can use shockwave therapy to improve the range of motion of your hip joint and restore mobility and function. Shockwave therapy can reduce calcification, improve circulation, and accelerate healing of soft tissues and joints. Radial shockwave therapy can treat superficial injuries that affect the muscle and soft tissues, while focused shockwave therapy can address deeper injuries that affect the bone and joint. Combining the two treatment options offers precise, controlled treatment of a large area and can stimulate healing and rehabilitation so that you can avoid the need for hip replacement surgery.

Using Focused and Radial Shockwave Therapy for Hip Pain

Shockwave therapy is typically used in combination with other chiropractic therapies like chiropractic adjustments, laser therapy, and massage therapy. Dr. Rinaldi can also combine radial shockwave therapy and focused shockwave therapy to offer lasting relief for chronic hip pain. Combining the two methods of shockwave therapy allows us to precisely target the underlying cause of your hip pain. We can use radial and focused shockwave therapies to break apart calcifications near the hip bone, stimulate repair and regeneration of damaged muscles and ligaments, reduce inflammation and stiffness of the hip joint, restore range of motion and mobility, increase blood flow and circulation, and relieve pain.
