ShockWave therapy : therapeutic benefits and treatment - PiedRéseau Longueuil
At PiedRéseau Longueuil, we offer ShockWave therapy as a specialized service in sports podiatry. This innovative treatment utilizes acoustic waves to address challenging musculoskeletal injuries in the foot, including conditions such as plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinitis, and heel spur. The therapy involves the application of high-intensity pulses through the skin to stimulate healing in the affected tissues. By inducing microtrauma, ShockWave therapy promotes increased blood flow, neovascularization, and collagen production, ultimately leading to improved mobility and a faster recovery process. With minimal side effects and no need for additional medications, it serves as a non-invasive alternative to surgery.
Our clinic, established in 2015, is dedicated to providing personalized care for our patients. Led by Dr. Stéphanie Bonneau, our team of experienced podiatrists employs the latest technologies and techniques to ensure effective treatment. Each podiatrist, including Dr. Marie-Michèle Gagné-Rae, Dr. Catherine Roy Bénard, Dr. Sarah Bougie, Dr. Vance Alvarez-Laprade, Dr. Delphine Loisel, and Dr. Florence Litalien, brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the practice. They are committed to understanding each patient’s unique needs and delivering tailored care to help alleviate foot pain and enhance overall foot health.
