ABOUT EXTRACORPOREAL SHOCKWAVE THERAPY (ESWT)
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) is a non-invasive therapy option for acute and chronic pain. High-energy shockwaves are focused onto the affected area to stimulate the speed up of the body’s own healing process. ESWT can over-stimulate nerves which reduces sensitivity and pain in the area.
It is one of the most advanced and highly effective noninvasive therapy methods approved by the FDA for conditions that are treatable. The therapy works by helping to improve the regenerative potential, enhancing blood circulation to regenerate damaged tissue which can eliminate/reduce pain, accelerate healing, and restore mobility, thus improving patients’ quality of life. Beneficial effects are often experienced after only 1 or 2 treatments and there is little or no downtime.

Chinese Meridian Therapy
Chinese Meridian Therapy combines the ancient art of Chinese medicine with today’s technology. It balances meridians and your nervous system, very similar to your body’s natural energy. CMT is effective in reducing stress, alleviating pain, relieving muscle tension, increasing circulation, and more.
Your certified Chinese Meridian therapist will gently massage your areas of concern while a moderate current of energy flows through their fingers into your affected areas.
Pain is your body telling you that there is an imbalance in the vicinity of the pain, warning there is a problem. Taking opioids or NSAID’s to control pain is like putting a band aid over the dashboard light that is telling you something is wrong with the engine.
Chinese Meridian Therapy (CMT) opens the blockages in the meridians which could be a significant cause of your chronic pain. CMT promotes good blood circulation.
CMT may help your metabolism and energy. CMT will aid in regulating the endocrine system assisting in digestion.
CMT will improve pain due to an imbalanced nervous system caused by physical or emotional stress. CMT can reduce muscle tension and pain caused by a poor or overworked nervous system.
CMT can enhance your immune system and reduce inflammation.
CMT will improve your body’s circulatory system and help to eliminate toxic acid waste, allowing you to achieve a state of alkalinity.
CMT can benefit beauty and weight loss by improving circulation and improving your overall health.
