What Denver Patients Say About Shockwave Therapy
Real experiences from patients treated at our Lowry clinic in Denver. Individual results vary.
★★★★★
Dr. Mac is awesome! I was referred to him to receive Shockwave and Red Light Therapy after a car accident that injured my shoulder . From that injury, I've been dealing with a ton of lower back pain, stiff neck, tingling, and numbness in my left arm. Since coming to him for these therapies, I've noticed a significant difference in my pain level and a decrease in tingling and numbness!
Aside from the help he's given me for my injury, he truly makes you feel comfortable and relaxed during each appointment with him! I HIGHLY recommend him for any service he provides that you may be looking into!

THE CYCLE OF FRUSTRATION
STILL DEALING WITH PAIN
THAT REST DIDN'T FIX?
You've tried icing it. You've foam rolled until you're bruised. You've rested for weeks, hoping the pain would settle—only for it to return the second you step back into the gym, onto the course, or into your daily routine. Chronic tendon problems such as plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, and Achilles tendinopathy can persist even after weeks of rest.
Lingering limitations force you to modify your workouts and guard your movements. Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive option for chronic tendon and soft-tissue pain, used alongside targeted rehab exercises to help you return to training and daily activities.
Shockwave Therapy (ESWT)
How SHOCKWAVE THERAPY Works
Acoustic Waves for Chronic Tendon Pain
Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) delivers acoustic pressure waves through the skin to injured tendon and soft tissue. It is used to stimulate blood flow and the body's natural healing response in chronic tendon and soft-tissue problems.
Non-invasive, delivered through the skin
Used for chronic tendon and soft-tissue conditions
Every patient is screened before treatment
In-Office Care Without Injections or Surgery
Shockwave is performed in the clinic with no needles, injections, or incisions. Most people feel a strong tapping sensation, and intensity is adjusted to your comfort. Most treatment plans involve 3 to 6 sessions spaced about a week apart, and your provider recommends a plan after your evaluation.
No needles, injections, or surgery
Same-day return to normal activities for most people
Paired with targeted rehab exercises
What to Expect
Your First Shockwave Visit
Your visit starts with an evaluation by Dr. Meghan Jeske, DC, to confirm whether your condition is appropriate for shockwave therapy. We screen every patient before treatment for factors that rule it out, including pregnancy, blood clots, tumors or open wounds in the treatment area, and certain blood thinners.
During treatment you'll feel a strong tapping sensation, with intensity adjusted to your comfort. Most people return to normal activities the same day, and your provider may advise avoiding intense exercise for 24 to 48 hours. If your pain is disc-related, ask about non-surgical spinal decompression or sports chiropractic care.
