Swiss Dolorclast Therapy for heel pain

(Radial Shock Wave Therapy)

Dolorclast Radial Shock Wave Therapy is a non invasive treatment for the treatment of   Plantar fasciitis (heel pain), tendonitis and calcification of tendons.

How does Dolorclast Therapy work?

Dolorclast therapy works in 2 ways:

  1. Reducing pain by decreasing the chemical messengers responsible for the transmission and perception of pain

  2. Improved local blood flow to the sore area through the physical effects of the treatment and the promotion of new blood vessel growth in the area which is thought to stimulate healing.

What does the Dolorclast Therapy involve?

Initially the treatment can be uncomfortable but as the treatment progresses the intensity usually reduces. An instant improvement in the treated area is usually noted after treatment.

Generally three treatments are required 1 week apart. Generally the period of pain relief experienced increases with every treatment.
