Shockwave therapy is the use of high-energy shockwaves at the cellular level to accelerate healing, improve blood flow, and provide pain relief. In humans, shockwave therapy is FDA approved for plantar fasciitis and tennis elbow. For dogs and cats, it also can be used for the following applications:
• Osteoarthritis
• Joint injuries
• Chronic back pain/LS disease
• Non-union or delayed-healing bone fractures
• Tendon/Ligament injuries
• Chronic wounds (lick granulomas)
We offer shockwave therapy through our Rehabilitation department, Veterinary Surgical Centers Rehabilitation. The service can be performed at our Vienna and Leesburg locations. To request an appointment, email VSC Vienna or email VSC Leesburg.
