Shockwave

Shockwave Therapy for chronic elbow pain

We are proud to offer Shockwave Therapy, also known as Radial Pressure Wave Therapy, as an advanced solution for difficult musculoskeletal disorders. This non-invasive treatment uses acoustic pressure waves to stimulate healing, break down scar tissue, and improve circulation in areas of chronic pain and dysfunction. Shockwave Therapy is highly effective for treating conditions such as tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, osteoarthritis, rotator cuff tears, low back pain, trigger finger, ankle sprains, trigger points, and so much more. By incorporating this cutting-edge technology into our practice, we are able to provide our patients with a powerful tool for pain relief and accelerated recovery, helping them get back to their ideal lifestyle.

Shockwave and Spinal Decompression!!! Due to my job, I have suffered from chronic neck pain for years, and have visited standard doctors, chiropractors, and massage therapists all without meaningful results. Dr. Scriven explained to me, mechanically, what was happening at every point during the appointment and made me feel like I was in the care of an expert. After one appointment with Dr. Scriven I have more pain relief than I’ve ever felt in the cumulative 3 years of previously attempted treatments. The shockwave was nothing like I’ve ever experienced before. It lasted about it 10 minutes, and felt like I received 10, back to back, hour long deep tissue massages without the associated soreness afterwards. The spinal decompression was incredibly relaxing but at the same time mechanically taxing. We focused on my neck but I felt it all the way down my spine down to my hamstrings. In summary, it was an incredibly emotional experience to finally confirm that I don’t have to live with this pain for the rest of my life.

Where has he been all my life?! Hunter is absolutely amazing. I had no idea about shockwave therapy or the benefits of it, but after one visit, all my pain was gone. Gone! Don't sleep on it. Book!

Dr Scriven did such an amazing job with treating my neck and back pain that I had for 8 years, after a few visits my pain is fully gone! I’ve been to many chiropractors before and they didn’t help me anywhere near the amount that Dr Scriven did! He is very clearly a professional and I highly recommend him to anyone!!!

Dr. Scriven is an amazing chiropractor! He listens to you with care and explains in a digestible way what is going on with your body that actually causes your discomfort/pain! A huge thing for me is how he makes sure you are comfortable with any treatment you will receive and explains what he will do before actually doing it. Awesome doctor, 20/10 recommend!!!!

Dr. Scriven is exceptional. From the moment you walk in, you're treated with genuine care and professionalism. Dr. Scriven takes the time to really listen and explain what's going on, and the adjustments have made a huge difference in my quality of life. The office is clean, welcoming, and scheduling is always easy. Highly recommend to anyone in the Davis area looking for a chiropractor who truly cares about their patients' well-being!

I have never been a chiropractor person, but wow, this was amazing! I could barely function and after two sessions I was completely healed! Magic! Thanks Hunter!

I’m a skeptic by nature when it comes to medical practitioners. It took my wife’s firm insistence to get me into the office after I threw my back out lifting two heavy suitcases in poor form. The pain was excruciating and unlike anything I’d dealt with before. Hunter Scriven is exceptionally capable. He operates with high precision and genuine concern for the outcome. The results were immediate: my pain subsided rapidly, and the improvement was drastic. I’m currently at 90%, and while there's still some sensitivity, the trajectory is impressive. Scriven’s strength is his adaptability. He adjusts the treatment in real-time based on my feedback, ensuring every move is effective. The bottom line: he took me from being crippled by pain to back on my feet. It works…shockingly well.

What To Expect:

Shockwave sessions will typically require 30 minutes. We will apply an acoustic gel over the area of complaint, which will help transfer the energy of the sound waves into the damaged tissues. During the treatment, patients may experience mild discomfort as the shockwaves break up scar tissue and restart the healing process. It is completely normal to feel a slight “soreness” in the area depending on your initial pain level, but many patients report immediate pain relief and increased functionality after the first treatment.​​

We typically recommend a series of 3 to 6 Shockwave Therapy sessions, spaced 7 days apart, depending on the severity of your condition. There are no long-term commitments required to begin treatment, and we are always available to answer any questions you may have about the process. We believe Shockwave Therapy is a game-changing tool that can benefit everyone, from high-level athletes to those with sedentary jobs, helping them achieve their goals and live pain-free. Having experienced its benefits firsthand, we consider it one of the most effective methods available for maintaining overall health and providing top-quality care to our patients.
