Is there any downtime after Shockwave Therapy?

Back to FAQs

No, patients typically don’t require downtime after Shockwave Therapy. Most patients can resume normal activities immediately after treatment.

Though less common, patients may experience swelling or tenderness at the treatment area. Those patients should temporarily avoid activities that cause them further discomfort.
