Dr. Segarra offers Acoustic Wave Therapy (AWT) at Harrisburg Chiropractic and Wellness Center to accelerate healing and reduce pain naturally. This advanced treatment uses high-frequency sound waves to stimulate recovery in patients suffering from chronic pain and stubborn injuries. The powerful waves penetrate deep into tissues, promoting healing where other treatments often fall short.
How Acoustic Wave Therapy Works
Unlike traditional ultrasound, AWT delivers approximately 1,000 times more powerful pressure waves, reaching deeper into injured tissues. These waves stimulate your body’s natural healing response, breaking down scar tissue and increasing blood flow to damaged areas. The method encourages tissue regeneration while reducing inflammation and pain.
Steps in the Process
Your session begins with the application of ultrasound gel to the affected area. Dr. Segarra then uses a special handpiece to deliver acoustic waves precisely where needed. Most patients describe feeling light tapping sensations during the application. Sessions typically last 15-20 minutes, making fitting care into your schedule convenient. AWT has proven effective for:
- Frozen shoulder
- Rotator cuff injuries
- Chronic knee pain
- Plantar fasciitis
- Tennis and golfer’s elbow
- Hip pain
- Neck and back problems
- Muscle strains
- Joint inflammation
- Peripheral neuropathy
How this Modality Benefits You
This innovative therapy offers several advantages over traditional treatments. Patients often experience immediate improvement in mobility and decreased pain following their first session. The effect continues after your visit, promoting long-term healing and tissue repair. Many find relief from chronic conditions that haven’t responded to other approaches.
Creating A Focused Health Plan
Dr. Segarra will assess your condition and design a schedule that targets your specific needs. AWT often works well in combination with other therapies we offer, ensuring comprehensive care for optimal results.
