What Is Shockwave Therapy In Oakville?
Shockwave therapy involves using compressed air to fire a bullet back and forth within an applicator that looks like a wand or gun. The energy created is transferred through the end of the applicator and into the tissue to promote reparative processes. Patients travel from Milton, Burlington and Mississauga everyday for our shockwave therapy!
The shockwave treatment lasts for 1200 to 1800 beats and the intensity can range from 0.3BAR – 8.0BAR. The shockwave contacts the patients at 15 times a second for most injuries. Most treatments are customized to where the patient feels the most “benefit” of treatment. Chronic injuries will use custom “ART Shockwave” protocols where our therapists move the patients joints while performing the shockwave therapy.
Our therapists use shockwave treatment to help treat bones, tendons and muscles. It is most commonly used to reduce pain and improve mobility. Shockwave is the gold standard for pain and tendinopathies treatment.

Why We Offer Affordable Shockwave Therapy in Oakville
Shockwave therapy isn’t just another treatment we offer at our clinic. For us, it’s personal.
After a devastating car accident, Dr. Steve Knighton was left with multiple serious injuries, including a spinal fracture and a torn labrum. At one point, returning to the clinic and helping patients again was uncertain. Recovery was long, painful, and filled with setbacks.
During that process, shockwave therapy became a turning point. It helped stimulate healing in damaged tissues and played a major role in getting Dr. Steve back on his feet and eventually back to doing what he loves most — helping people in pain.
Experiencing firsthand how powerful this therapy can be for stubborn soft tissue injuries changed how we practice.
That’s why shockwave therapy isn’t treated like a quick add-on here. It’s part of a comprehensive treatment approach designed to help patients heal faster, move better, and get their lives back.
Our goal has always been simple.
Provide state-of-the-art care that we believe in — and make it accessible at fair, transparent pricing for Oakville patients who need it.

Benefits of Radial Shockwave Therapy in Oakville
Shockwave therapy is a modern, evidence-based treatment used to help accelerate healing in stubborn musculoskeletal injuries. At our Oakville clinic, shockwave therapy is commonly used for conditions that have not responded well to rest, stretching, or traditional therapy.
One of the main benefits of shockwave therapy is its ability to stimulate the body’s natural healing response. The acoustic waves delivered during treatment increase circulation to damaged tissues, helping deliver oxygen and nutrients that promote repair and regeneration. This process can also help break down scar tissue and chronic adhesions that often develop after injuries.
Shockwave therapy is frequently used to treat chronic tendon injuries such as plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, Achilles tendonitis, rotator cuff injuries, and hip bursitis. Many patients experience improved mobility, reduced pain, and faster recovery times compared to traditional passive treatments.
Another key benefit is that shockwave therapy is completely non-surgical and does not require injections or medication. Treatments are typically quick, allowing patients to return to normal activities shortly afterward.
For many Oakville patients dealing with long-standing soft tissue injuries, shockwave therapy provides an effective way to stimulate healing and restore normal movement.
Patients from Oakville, Milton, Burlington and Mississauga often visit our clinic for shockwave therapy to treat chronic tendon injuries and stubborn soft tissue pain.
