Shockwave Therapy for Arthritis: Relief at Nashville Disc Center
At Nashville Disc Center, we specialize in providing advanced, non-invasive treatments to help our patients live free from pain and regain their mobility. For individuals struggling with arthritis, we proudly offer shockwave therapy, a state-of-the-art solution proven to reduce pain and improve joint function.
What is Arthritis?
Arthritis is a common condition that causes joint inflammation, leading to stiffness, discomfort, and reduced range of motion. The two most prevalent types are:
- Osteoarthritis: Caused by wear and tear of joint cartilage over time.
- Rheumatoid Arthritis: An autoimmune condition where the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks its own joint tissues.
Arthritis can result from various factors, including aging, injury, obesity, or genetic predisposition, significantly impacting your quality of life
How Shockwave Therapy Helps Arthritis Patients
Shockwave therapy offers several benefits for individuals living with arthritis:
- Pain Relief: By increasing blood flow and stimulating tissue repair, this therapy helps alleviate chronic joint pain.
- Enhanced Mobility: Shockwave therapy encourages tissue regeneration, leading to improved flexibility and joint function.
- Non-Surgical Alternative: It provides relief without the risks or recovery time associated with invasive surgeries.
- Quick and Convenient: Treatments are short and require no downtime, allowing you to return to your normal activities immediately.
How Shockwave Therapy Works
Shockwave therapy utilizes high-energy sound waves to activate the body’s natural healing processes. When applied to arthritic joints, these acoustic waves:
- Boost blood circulation
- Stimulate collagen production
- Reduce inflammation
- Support tissue regeneration
This targeted approach provides lasting relief and improved joint health without the need for medications or invasive procedures.
What to Expect During Treatment
At Nashville Disc Center, our shockwave therapy sessions are designed to be quick, effective, and comfortable:
- A gel is applied to the treatment area to facilitate wave transmission.
- A handheld device delivers focused acoustic waves to the affected joint.
- Sessions typically last 10–15 minutes, with minimal discomfort reported by most patients.
Who is a Good Candidate for Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave therapy is a great option for patients with arthritis who have not found relief through traditional methods like medications or physical therapy. It is also ideal for those seeking a non-invasive alternative to surgery. Our team will conduct a personalized evaluation to determine if this therapy is right for you.
Side Effects and Safety
Shockwave therapy is generally safe and well-tolerated. Mild side effects, such as temporary redness or slight swelling at the treatment site, may occur but typically resolve quickly.

How Long Does Softwave Therapy Last?
The duration of each SoftWave therapy session typically lasts around 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the area being treated and the severity of the condition.
The effects of the treatment, such as pain relief and tissue healing, can be felt after a few sessions, though some patients may experience relief sooner.
For lasting results, a treatment plan usually consists of several sessions spread over a few weeks, allowing the body to heal progressively and reduce discomfort long-term.
