How Can Shockwave Therapy Benefit Musculoskeletal Disorders?
Musculoskeletal disorders are common, causing everything from recurrent pain and stiff joints to muscle atrophy. There are many treatment options for these health conditions, including chiropractic care. At Amplify Chiropractic & Wellness, Dr. Josh Rinaldi uses cutting-edge technology, such as radial shockwave therapy, to treat patients with musculoskeletal disorders in Poughkeepsie, NY.
What Are Musculoskeletal Disorders?
Musculoskeletal disorders encompass all the various health conditions that can affect the bones, joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments, cartilage, and spinal discs. For example, some disorders that may affect the joints include gout, osteoarthritis, bursitis, and psoriatic arthritis. Other musculoskeletal disorders include:
- Muscular dystrophy
- Rotator cuff tears
- Tendinitis
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Fibromyalgia
- Bone fractures
How Do Musculoskeletal Disorders Affect the Body?
Musculoskeletal disorders can negatively affect your life by causing persistent pain, stiff joints, swelling, numbness, and dull aches. Some musculoskeletal disorders can affect multiple bodily systems or areas of the body. These include fibromyalgia, which can cause pain throughout the body. Connective tissue disorders can even cause abnormalities in the blood vessels, heart, eyes, and bones.
If not properly managed, some of these disorders have the potential to worsen. For instance, untreated carpal tunnel syndrome may lead to worsening nerve damage. It’s also possible for some conditions that cause muscle weakness to lead to muscle atrophy.
How Radial Shockwave Therapy Can Help
MiracleWave® Therapy is a cutting-edge treatment for musculoskeletal disorders we use at Amplify Chiropractic & Wellness that uses sound waves to target the underlying cause of your symptoms. The acoustic waves increase blood flow and promote cell regeneration to stimulate the body’s ability to heal itself all while reducing pain. The system can heal damaged soft tissues and help you regain greater function. Plus, compared to other similar systems, MiracleWave® technology offers a fast and painless application, with shorter treatment times.
