There’s a better way to treat pain now available at Charleston Sports Medicine and Orthopaedic Centers. EPAT/ESWT or focused shock wave is an evidence-based treatment that gets to the root of your pain, facilitating healing and accelerating your recovery. EPAT improves your body’s regenerative potential, rather than further damaging an area that has degenerated because of poor blood flow, tissue injury, overuse, or weakness.
In as few as 3 to 5 weekly 7 to 10-minute sessions in your doctor’s office, you’ll be on a faster, easier path to feeling better — and back to the activities, you love. No risk. No downtime. No surgery, scarring, or anesthesia. And extremely high patient satisfaction — more than 80%!
To further increase the efficacy of EPAT, Charleston Sports Medicine physicians combine EPAT technology with additional non-invasive solutions regenerative solutions like platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy and ultrasound imaging. Be sure to ask your physician about your treatment approach.
