Shockwave Therapy in Birmingham
Stimulate the body’s natural healing processes
Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes. It is widely recognised in musculoskeletal medicine and endorsed by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) as an effective treatment for a range of soft tissue injuries and chronic pain conditions.
How Does Shockwave Therapy Work?
During treatment, controlled acoustic waves are delivered to the affected area. These waves:
- Increase blood flow to accelerate tissue repair
- Reduce inflammation and pain
- Break down scar tissue and calcifications
- Stimulate collagen production to support long-term healing
The treatment is quick, safe, and typically requires no downtime, allowing you to return to normal activities soon after each session.
Conditions Treated with Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy in Birmingham is commonly used for:
- Plantar Fasciitis (heel pain)
- Tendon injuries such as Achilles tendinopathy and patellar tendinopathy
- Shoulder pain from calcific tendinitis or rotator cuff injuries

Very happy with treatment.
My arm had no good movement after stroke. Walking was very hard, very slow. Raj helped me lot. He gave very good exercises, was very patient with me. Now my arm is stronger, I can hold things better. My walking is also better, more balance.

I can’t recommend him highly enough!
I had been struggling with severe lower back pain and sciatica, which made even the simplest tasks unbearable—especially sleeping. After seeing Raj my pain levels reduced significantly, and for the first time in weeks, I was able to get a good night’s sleep.

I’m back to doing what I love!
I sprained my ankle playing sports, and at first, I was worried I wouldn’t be able to get back to my usual activities. They provided me with exercises that were perfect for my age and helped me regain strength and mobility.
