Shockwave Therapy

At Alexandra Osteopilates, we believe that the body possesses an innate ability to heal itself when given the right environment and movement. To support this natural process, we have introduced medical-grade Shockwave Therapy—a non-invasive, drug-free solution for stubborn, chronic pain. This cutting-edge technology delivers high-energy acoustic waves to injured tissues, creating targeted “microtrauma” that restarts the body’s healing mechanism. By increasing local circulation and breaking down disorganized scar tissue or calcium deposits, it provides a powerful path to recovery where other treatments may have stalled. Whether you are managing hypermobility, plantar fasciitis, or persistent back pain, this therapy complements Alexandra’s hands-on osteopathic approach and movement-based Pilates philosophy. It is more than just a quick fix; it is a clinical tool designed to remove obstacles to healing, allowing you to return to a life of fluid, pain-free movement without the need for surgery.
