Focussed (Focal) Shockwave Therapy
Focal Shockwave is the most advanced machine to combat our two most common injuries at the Adelaide Podiatry Centres: namely heel and Achilles injuries. It can also be used in the tendons of the ankle and patella (knee cap).
It is the one of only a handful of machines in the country and is the only one in Adelaide and the state of South Australia.
We use this machine if your pain fails to respond after the more common Radial Shockwave Therapy.
