Learn more about Focused Shockwave Therapy

Focused Shockwave Therapy

Focused Shockwave Therapy when combined with rehabilitation is the gold standard treatment for a wide range of conditions including Plantar Fasciitis, Achilles Tendinopathy, Tennis and Golfers Elbow, Patella Tendinopathy, Gluteal Tendinopathy, Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy. Focused Shockwave Therapy helps these tendon injuries heal quicker and more efficiently giving you a greater, faster recovery.

Why choose Focused over Radial Shockwave?

Unlike Radial Shockwave (ESWT), Focused Shockwave can be used to treat more challenging conditions such as Calcific Tendinopathies, Knee & Joint Arthritis, Coccydynia, Shin Splints and Bone Stress Injuries (Bony Oedema). Additionally Focused Shockwave produces 20 times more energy, achieving better, faster results!

Focused Shockwave Therapy for Knee Osteoarthritis and Coccydynia

Focused Shockwave Therapy is commonly known to be a really successful treatment for tendon related injuries such as Achilles Tendinitis, Patella Tendinitis and Plantar Fasciitis. What is less known though is the benefits Focused Shockwave Therapy has for Knee Osteoarthritis and Coccydinia.

Due to the high frequency sound waves, precise application and penetration depth of up to 12cm. Focused Shockwave Therapy can penetrate bone and help to reduce and settle bony odema (bone stress reaction) in the sub chondral bone, the main component responsible for knee osteoarthritis pain and other bone related pain such as Coccydynia.

Focused Shockwave Therapy offers a promising non-invasive treatment option for Knee Osteoarthritis & Coccydinia especially for those looking to avoid more invasive treatments such as injections or surgeries.

Kind words from our clients

  • I have been seeing Beth at Movement Matters for the past few months for a torn tendon, which is slowly recovering under Beth’s expert care. Part of my treatment has included 3 sessions of Shockwave Therapy which has definitely kick started my recovery . I cannot fault this practice in anyway. The whole team there are so friendly, extremely knowledgeable and really go out of their way to help you. I cannot recommend this Practice highly enough and especially Beth for the care and attention she has given me. Thank you to you all.

    Shoulder Tendon Pain - Focused Shockwave Therapy

  • I have had a long standing shoulder issue which was causing me a great deal of discomfort and often waking me up. It hadn’t responded to conventional treatment and so Beth recommended Shockwave treatment. To be honest at first I was sceptical as it is a large outlay with no guaranteed positive outcome. On reflection I went ahead with 3 treatments and in 3 weeks which is the recommended treatment cycle. Whilst it my shoulder was sore after each of the treatments by the end of the 3rd treatment I had a slight improvement in movement and a little less pain. Week 4 and 5 the pain got less and movement significantly improved. Jump forward to 8 weeks since treatment, I am now pain free and sleeping. Beth has gradually increased my exercise post treatment and I have around 90% movement back. Overall I would highly recommend this treatment to anyone experiencing similar issues.

    Shoulder Pain - Focused Shockwave Therapy

  • After suffering with a painful shoulder injury I was recommended movement matters physio. After a thorough assessment, a course of focused shockwave therapy followed by rehabilitation exercises I have had much improvement. My pain is significantly better and my function much improved. Still some work to go but I am super happy with the results this far, would recommend this professional friendly outfit to anyone. Thanks guys

    Shoulder Pain - Focused Shockwave Therapy

  • Modern Day Physio at its best!!!

    After a serious of illnesses which led to me experiencing daily migraines/headaches, I sought out Movement Matters. Scott did my initial assessment and was able to recreate my headaches/migraines by pressing down on my neck! He came up with a comprehensive treatment plan and explained how the pain was multi-factorial: new parent/lack of sleep/reduction in exercise/stress/desk work. Due to this the recovery process was and still is a self-learning process! I learned a lot from Scott: how I have been over using my upper neck muscles, creating a healthy mindset (acceptance and letting things go) and actually putting me first. This might sound wishy washy to you but the experience has changed my outlook on life and I am very grateful to Scott as I no longer wake up in pain. Should you suffer from pain and are looking for a holistic/modern way of treating pain, please go and book an appointment with Movement Matters now rather than wait for your body to completely break down or burn out. P.S. The receptionists are all really lovely which is an added bonus!

  • After my ACL reconstruction surgery in February I was unsure of what the next steps were for rehabilitation. NHS physio visits once every six weeks, between 12-20 minutes a time were not very reassuring. I was recommended to visit Movement Matters Physio. Scott has provided me with the best Post Operation Physio I could ask for. Weekly visits to the clinic with changes to my exercises and training plans help keep me motivated and focused on my end goal of returning to sport. My Testing Session gave data which really helped put my progress into perspective and allowed me to see how far I’ve come since starting at Movement Matters Physio. Thank you so much!! 😀

    ACL Reconstruction

  • I have seen both Scott & Sarah over the past 2 months, following severe damage to my spinal cord.
    I have received amazing care & advice, with programmes specifically designed to assist with my development. The equipment & techniques are modern & effective.I have a very long road ahead of me but the progress I have made, after being told 6 months ago I wouldn’t walk, is overwhelming.
    My confidence has grown with each session & I am happy that my ongoing journey is going to be with the team at Movement Matters by my side.
    The clinic itself is spotless & all of the staff are welcoming & friendly.
    Very highly recommended.

    Spinal Injury

  • My 93 year old father had an emergency hip replacement. After 2 weeks in hospital and 3 weeks at
    his home he had made very little progress. We were advised that it would be very difficult for him to
    walk again.
    Not wanting to give up we contacted Movement Matters and Beth came to see him for the initial visit.
    We were very impressed with what she managed to achieve so booked more sessions.
    He has now had 7 sessions seeing either Beth or Scott. Both have worked wonders with him. His
    walking is much better and the exercises they have helped him with are improving his overall
    strength.
    I can’t thank them enough

    Hip Replacement

  • I first began using Movement matters physio at the the end of March 2021 after suffering a leg break,
    Ankle dislocation and tear of the deltoid ligament. I can’t recommend these guys enough. They have
    been so helpful and supportive during my rehab. On my bad days, they lifted me up and made me
    determined to keep on going! They gave me all the attention and care I needed and were always so
    helpful and understanding.
    18 months later, I went into the studio to do a strength test with them and am so happy with the
    results and progress I have made with their help, after being told by doctors that I would be lucky to
    get back 80% of my ankle mobility/strength after the injury. Today I matched the strength in weight
    and reps with the other leg and am so happy to have recovered the way I have and to be back to
    playing football and running after having many doubts whether I’d be able to again. I can’t recommend
    Scott and the team enough! They are truly incredible!

    Leg Fracture

  • I was recommended using MMP, and they have been brilliant!!! They have an absolute top notch
    team. The receptionists are all extremely welcoming and friendly, and having worked with Scott on a
    previous back issue the whole team make you feel part of the MMP family.
    This time I had the pleasure of working with Ausrine since injuring a shoulder tendon doing Martial
    Arts. My treatment has included Acupuncture, Shockwave Therapy, Massage Therapy as well as
    Physical Therapy. Ausrine has been friendly, knowledgeable. Through my personalised program she
    has helped to return my shoulder to full functionality, and also highlighted the root cause which was
    specific weak areas of my shoulder. Now I have a training program which has been tailored to
    compliment my Martial Arts, as well as addressing the weak areas which caused the original issue –

    Back Pain & Shoulder Injury

  • Ausrine was great and picked up my injury from the first appointment and helped me to get the movement & strength testing
    needed. Ausrine and Scott have helped me massively, forcing me to rest then helping with my return
    to running and a strength and conditioning programme based on my weaknesses to get me back on
    track for my iron man. They’ve got me from being a few runs away from causing myself some serious
    damage to 3 weeks from my first iron man. Everyone is super helpful and friendly. Can’t recommend
    them

    Natasha W

    Chronic Spinal Pain

  • I used Scott a few years ago when he worked wonders getting me back on my feet following a hip replacement. This time I had an issue with my knee and didn’t hesitate to return to him.

    Scott has provided me with great care, support and treatment throughout, and I have recovered brilliantly. The combination of his treatment and exercise based rehabilitation has worked a treat.

    His knowledge is excellent and the practice has great facilities. Would highly recommend him to anyone wanting to get high quality physio.

    Thanks Scott

    Knee Arthritis

  • Recommend “Movement Matters’, Scott has been brilliant! 6 months steady treatment with an exercise program has seen me go from scared to go anything strenuous in case my hip pain (arthritis)  become worse, to running 2 – 3 times a week and being pretty much pain free. Scott has helped me build the supportive muscles around my hip to prevent the pain and enable me to return to an activity I love! Thanks Scott.
