Frequently Asked Questions
Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that delivers controlled acoustic energy into injured tissue to stimulate the body’s natural healing response. It is commonly used for plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinopathy, tennis elbow, shoulder calcifications, chronic tendon pain, muscle injuries, and other musculoskeletal conditions. Treatment typically takes 10–20 minutes, requires little or no downtime, and may be combined with exercise rehabilitation for the best outcomes.
Australian providers commonly use shockwave therapy for plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinopathy, patellar tendinopathy, tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, rotator cuff tendinopathy, calcific shoulder tendinitis, greater trochanteric pain syndrome, shin splints, trigger points, scar tissue, chronic muscle tightness, and selected sports injuries. Treatment recommendations should always be based on an individual clinical assessment and current evidence for the specific condition.
Costs vary by clinic, provider qualifications, equipment, treatment area, and treatment plan. Many Australian clinics charge approximately AUD $80–$200 per session, while comprehensive treatment packages may reduce the per-session cost. Patients should confirm pricing, consultation fees, package discounts, and expected number of treatments directly with their chosen clinic.
Shockwave therapy is generally not covered directly under Medicare when provided as a standalone treatment. Some private health insurers may provide rebates when treatment is delivered by eligible practitioners such as physiotherapists or chiropractors, depending on your level of extras cover. Patients should contact their private health fund before treatment to confirm eligibility and any out-of-pocket expenses.
Candidates typically include people with chronic tendon disorders, persistent heel pain, overuse injuries, sports injuries, and musculoskeletal conditions that have not improved with rest, exercise, or other conservative treatments. A healthcare provider should review your medical history, diagnosis, medications, and imaging where appropriate before recommending shockwave therapy as part of an evidence-informed treatment plan.
General precautions include reduced sensation, active inflammation, recent corticosteroid injection, and certain implanted electronic devices depending on treatment location. Absolute contraindications generally include treatment over known malignancy, active infection, pregnancy over the treatment area, bleeding disorders, or treatment directly over growing growth plates in children. Your provider will determine whether shockwave therapy is appropriate based on your individual medical history and examination.
