Shockwave therapy in the Wellcome health center
In recent years, it has been shown that treatment with the help of shock wave therapy can support regeneration particularly effectively for complaints of the muscles, fascia and tendon attachments.
In shock wave therapy, a device generates a pressure pulse that is transmitted to the tissue to be treated via a handle. The impulse wave spreads to a depth of approx. 4 cm and ensures the release of messenger substances that trigger various pain-reducing and effect-promoting reactions in the body. This leads to a reduction in pain and an expansion of the blood vessels, resulting in improved tissue healing.
Shock wave therapy is indicated for the following disorders:
Myofascial trigger points
Myofascial trigger points are areas in the muscles that can harden due to excessive use and cause pain, restricted movement and loss of strength.
Achilles vision problems
Overloading along the tendon and in the heel insertion area.
Tennis- u. Golferellenbogen
Overloading of the tendon attachment point in the area of the inner (golfer's elbow) or outer (tennis elbow) elbow.
Back pain

When it comes to tendon problems, trigger points can often also be found in the associated muscles. The tendon problems and overloading of the muscles are usually the result of overloading or incorrect loading. Such complaints can only be permanently eliminated by identifying and correcting the cause.
That's why every treatment begins with a physiotherapeutic examination to record these connections. A targeted therapy plan is then drawn up. The therapy plan includes the correct dosage and localization of shock wave application and suitable self-exercises to support regeneration. In order to be free of symptoms in the long term, it is essential to first reduce the triggering factors and then increase your own performance. This gives the body time to recover and renew and strengthen damaged tissue.
