Pressure wave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses sound waves delivered through a handheld device placed on the skin. <\/strong><\/p>\n

This page explains how a typical session works and what you can expect when you visit Care Family Medical & Chiropractic in Tulsa. Our goal is to help you understand the process and what is involved before deciding whether it is an option you would like to discuss with Dr. Curtis Smith.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pressure wave therapy, also known as acoustic wave therapy, is one of the treatment options patients ask Dr. Smith about. Many people are interested because the therapy does not involve surgery, incisions, or injections.<\/p>\n

Below, we\u2019ll walk through what a session may look like, from the initial setup to the treatment process itself.<\/p>\n

How Pressure Wave Therapy Works<\/h2>\n

A session is straightforward and is done right in the office.<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Preparation.<\/strong> A team member applies a gel to the area being treated.<\/li>\n
  • Delivery.<\/strong> A handheld device is moved across the skin, sending acoustic waves into the tissue beneath.<\/li>\n
  • Finish.<\/strong> The gel is wiped away, and the session is complete.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Sessions are typically short, and there is no incision and no built-in recovery time at the visit. Many people describe the sensation as a tapping or pulsing against the skin.<\/p>\n

    What to Expect During Treatment<\/h2>\n

    Comfort varies from person to person. The intensity can often be adjusted, and you should tell the team member working with you if anything feels uncomfortable. The device is explained before you begin so you know what to expect, and you are welcome to ask questions at any point.<\/p>\n

    Because the treatment is non-invasive, most people return to their day after a session. Your specific experience is something Dr. Smith reviews with you based on your situation.<\/p>\n

    Qu\u00e9 esperar en su consulta<\/h2>\n

    Before starting, you meet with Dr. Smith for a consultation. This is a conversation about your health history, your goals, and your questions. He reviews your individual situation and explains whether pressure wave therapy is worth discussing for you. There is no obligation to proceed.<\/p>\n

    It helps to come prepared. You might ask what a session involves, how many sessions are typical, and what is and is not known about the option. Whether it is appropriate depends on your individual health, assessed one person at a time.<\/p>\n

    Exploring Whether Pressure Wave Therapy Is Right for You<\/h2>\n

    Patients who ask about pressure wave therapy often want a non-invasive option that does not involve surgery or drugs. Some have read about it and want a clear explanation of what a session feels like. Others want to compare it with the other options we describe on this site.<\/p>\n

    Before you call, it can help to jot down your questions. You might ask how a session feels, how many sessions are typical, what the device does, and what is and is not known about the option. A consultation is the right place to ask, and there is no obligation that comes with it. Dr. Smith would rather you leave with clear information than with a decision made too quickly.<\/p>\n
