Radial Pressure Wave (RPW) Therapy
What is Radial Pressure Wave Therapy?
Radial Pressure Waves (RPW) are acoustic waves that generate oscillations in the tissue. Radial pressure wave therapy helps reduce muscle pain and activate connective tissue, temporarily aid in the increase of blood flow, and help in treatment of tendinitis in hips and shoulders and helps to improve pain in various musculoskeletal conditions.
What does RPW feel like?
Patients may report feeling soreness and a thumping sensation when the treatment head passes over dysfunctional tissues. Patients report feeling very little discomfort when it actively travels over healthy tissue. The level of discomfort depends on the area being treated, the setting on the device, and the acuity of the condition. Minor post-treatment soreness around the involved area is not uncommon.
