Shockwave Therapy
Are you struggling with chronic pain that just won’t go away? StepUp Physical Therapy offers innovative Shockwave Therapy treatments at our clinic in Murray, Utah, to help relieve pain and accelerate healing without surgery or medication.
What is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses high-energy sound waves to stimulate healing in damaged tissues. It helps promote circulation, reduce pain, and break down scar tissue or calcifications in muscles, tendons, and ligaments.
Shockwave Therapy is commonly used to treat conditions like plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, muscle strains, and more. It’s a powerful addition to a physical therapy treatment plan when traditional approaches aren’t enough on their own.
Benefits of Shockwave Therapy
Adding Shockwave Therapy to your recovery plan may help:
- Reduce chronic or stubborn pain
- Accelerate soft tissue healing
- Improve range of motion and flexibility
- Stimulate blood flow and tissue regeneration
- Break up scar tissue and adhesions
- Minimize the need for invasive treatments or medications
Patients at our physical therapy clinics often report noticeable relief after just a few sessions.
Conditions Treated with Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave Therapy treatments are effective for a variety of musculoskeletal and soft tissue conditions, including:
- Plantar fasciitis
- Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis)
- Golfer’s elbow (medial epicondylitis)
- Achilles tendinopathy
- Shoulder tendonitis
- Shin splints
- Patellar tendinitis (jumper’s knee)
- Hip and hamstring pain

If you’ve tried other therapy options and still struggle with discomfort, Shockwave Therapy may be the solution you’ve been looking for.
What to Expect During Treatment
During your Shockwave Therapy session at our Murray clinic, our skilled physical therapists will apply a handheld device to the targeted area. The device emits acoustic waves that penetrate deep into the tissue, stimulating your body’s natural healing response.
Each session is quick—typically 5 to 10 minutes—and requires no downtime. Some patients experience mild discomfort during treatment, but most report pain relief within a few sessions.
