Shockwave Therapy in Hexham & the Tyne Valley

A Cutting-Edge, Non-Surgical Treatment for Persistent Pain

At InSync Physiotherapy & Sports Injury Clinic, we’re proud to offer Shockwave Therapy – a safe, non-invasive treatment designed to support faster recovery from chronic pain and injury.

Using the renowned Swiss DolorClast® system, our clinicians deliver focused pulses of energy directly to damaged tissue, stimulating healing, improving circulation, and reducing pain. It’s an ideal alternative to more invasive treatments such as surgery, steroid injections, or long-term medication use.

What Is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave Therapy uses acoustic energy pulses to target musculoskeletal injuries at the source. These sound waves promote the body’s natural healing response by:

Whether you’re:

  • Increasing blood flow to the affected area
  • Stimulating cell regeneration and tissue repair
  • Breaking down calcified tissue
  • Reducing inflammation and nerve sensitivity

The result? A quicker return to pain-free movement, with minimal downtime.

Conditions We Commonly Treat

Shockwave Therapy has a strong evidence base for treating chronic and hard-to-resolve injuries, including:

  • Tennis elbow
  • Subacromial shoulder pain
  • Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (hip)

What to Expect

After a full physiotherapy assessment and diagnosis, we’ll discuss whether Shockwave Therapy is suitable for your condition. We only recommend it when it’s clinically appropriate and supported by the latest evidence – we never offer treatments unless we believe they will help you.

Each session is quick, non-surgical, and performed by one of our highly trained clinicians. Many people experience noticeable improvements within just a few sessions, especially when Shockwave Therapy is combined with a personalised rehab programme.
