#5 Breaking Through Pain: How Shockwave Therapy Accelerates Healing
In this episode of Appalachian Wellness Connection, Dr. Kevin Britt and Dr. Micheal Bryan explore one of the most exciting regenerative tools in their clinical toolbox: Piezowave shockwave therapy. This innovative, non-invasive treatment uses acoustic waves to stimulate deep tissue repair, break up scar tissue, and jumpstart the healing process at the cellular level.
We explain how shockwave therapy works, what makes piezo technology unique, and how it’s helping patients overcome chronic issues like plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, joint pain, joint degeneration, and even non-healing injuries. You’ll also hear how we integrate shockwave therapy into a holistic framework that supports lasting recovery.
If you’re tired of temporary fixes and want to understand how your body can truly heal itself, this episode will show you how we use sound energy to spark real, regenerative change.
