If you suffer from chronic or acute musculoskeletal pain, scientifically proven relief is at hand with Acoustic Wave Therapy
Acoustic wave therapy is a highly advanced pain treatment solution. It is a fantastic breakthrough in regenerative medicine.
It simulates the body’s metabolism enhancing your blood circulation activating its healing process allowing for faster tissue regeneration.
There is no down time, no anaesthesia and no medication. It only takes 10 -20 minutes, there is no pain during treatment, and relief is instant.
The causes for Musculoskeletal pain are varied, and it affects bones, muscles, ligaments and tendons.
Pain is caused through repetitive movements, strain or overuse of the muscle tissues which become damaged with the wear and tear of daily activities. Other causes are sports injuries, car accidents, strains or sprains.
Symptoms are all different, depending on the person and what is causing the pain. Also, it will depend on whether the pain is chronic or acute.
Common symptoms are;
- Localised or widespread pain that can worsen with movement
- Tenderness
- Weakness
- Limited motion
- Aching or stiffness of the whole body
- The feeling your muscles have been overworked
- Fatigue
- Sleep disturbances
- Twitching muscles.
Acoustic Wave Therapy works by stimulating the tendon and bones growth factors. It stimulates the production of blood vessels meaning there is an improved blood supply to the treated area.
Chronic inflammation occurs when the body’s inflammatory response is not completely stopped. What this means is that it can damage healthy tissue and results in chronic pain. Acoustic wave therapy restores the normal healing and regenerative process.

Collagen plays an incredibly important part in the process of repairing damaged muscles and ligaments. Acoustic Wave Therapy simulates the body’s collagen production.
Calcium build up is often the result of micro-tears or other trauma caused to the tendons. Acoustic Wave Therapy breaks up the calcification and starts the biochemical decalcification process.
It also releases trigger points that are often the major cause of back pain, neck pain, shoulder and limb pain. The trigger points are nodules in tight bands of muscle fibres. The nodules contract so tightly that they begin to cut off their own blood supply. This causes waste products such as lactic acid to build up causing irritation of the sensory nerve endings.
At Melbourne’s Instant Laser Clinic Acoustic wave therapy is used frequently to treat minor injuries such as Plantar Fasciitis, heel spurs, frozen neck, frozen shoulder and tennis elbow as well as chronic pain.
There is no down-time with these treatments and no side effects. The pain is instantly relieved after the treatment which only takes 10 – 20 minutes. Only the injured or inflamed area needs to be treated. During the treatment there is a pulsing sensation, which sometimes can feel a little uncomfortable, but worth the discomfort.
80 % of patients found a significant reduction or complete eradication of pain.
Pain relief although instant, does not mean the injury has completely healed. Allow 6-8 weeks for complete repair. The results last 6 -12 months depending on how carefully you look after your injury in the weeks following treatment and how healthily you live from then on.

Starts from $120 per 10 minutes , including initial consultation.
