Find Relief from Soft Tissue Pain with Shockwave Therapy
Are you struggling with tendon pain, such as tennis or golfer’s elbow? Does it persist despite rest or targeted exercise? When a soft tissue injury overstays its welcome, you might benefit from shockwave therapy in Abbotsford, BC at Montrose Physio and Massage, a targeted treatment option that supports tissue recovery and helps restore comfortable movement.
Explaining Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that delivers controlled acoustic energy to specific areas of injured or irritated tissue. During a session, one of our trained clinicians applies the treatment directly to the affected area using a handheld device. The energy reaches deep into the tissue and stimulates a biological response that supports healing.
Shockwave therapy does not involve injections or medication. At Montrose Physio and Massage, we use shockwave therapy as part of a comprehensive physiotherapy plan that encompasses movement, strengthening, and progressive activity.
Conditions That Respond Well to Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy is often used for conditions where tendons or soft tissues have difficulty healing. These conditions commonly include:
- Plantar fascia irritation
- Achilles tendon pain
- Patellar tendon irritation
- Tennis elbow
- Shoulder tendon pain
- Hip tendon irritation
- Chronic soft tissue discomfort related to overuse
The Role of Shockwave Therapy in Injury Recovery
Shockwave therapy supports recovery by addressing the underlying tissue response rather than masking symptoms. It stimulates the body’s natural healing processes within irritated tissue. The acoustic energy increases local blood flow and encourages tissue remodeling, helping reduce sensitivity in the affected area and supporting healthier tissue structure.
As tissue health improves, pain during movement often decreases, and strength training becomes more effective. Reduced sensitivity allows people to move with greater confidence and participate more fully in rehabilitation exercises.

- Support for tendon and soft tissue healing
