Shock Wave Therapy: Technology for Your Recovery in Benidorm
Shock wave therapy is an option that has long proven its effectiveness in physiotherapy, and scientific evidence for it keeps growing. In Benidorm, this technology is available to everyone, and today I'll tell you how it can help you recover your wellbeing and improve your quality of life.
Shock wave therapy uses acoustic pulses that stimulate tissue regeneration and relieve pain.
It's ideal for treating sports injuries, tendinitis, plantar fasciitis, and many other musculoskeletal conditions. It's also a fast and safe treatment.
What is shock wave therapy and how does it work?
Shock wave therapy is a treatment that uses high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate the repair of damaged tissue. These waves are applied directly to the affected area using a specialised device.
The process is simple: the waves penetrate the skin and reach the deep tissues, where they cause controlled micro-trauma. This activates the response through the phenomenon of mechanotransduction, increasing blood flow and collagen production, two key elements for cell regeneration.
The therapy also helps break down calcium deposits and reduces inflammation, which helps relieve pain naturally. It's a non-invasive method, with no serious side effects, and with noticeable results in just a few sessions.
Benefits of shock wave therapy for your recovery
Shock wave therapy offers multiple advantages that make it a preferred option for those looking to improve their musculoskeletal health:
Fast recovery: speeds up tissue repair and reduces recovery time.
Pain relief: reduces chronic and acute pain without the need for medication.
Non-invasive treatment: avoids the risks associated with invasive procedures.
Improved mobility: helps restore joint function and flexibility.
Versatility: effective for a range of conditions such as tendinitis, epicondylitis, plantar fasciitis, and calcifications.
Pelvic floor: Has very beneficial effects on recovering pelvic floor muscle function, improving urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction and mild to moderate prolapse.
At KINEO Benidorm, we apply this technology with a personalised approach. We assess your case and design a treatment plan tailored to your needs, so every session contributes to your wellbeing and physical improvement.
How much does shock wave therapy cost?
One of the most frequent questions is about the cost of this treatment. The price can vary depending on the clinic, the area being treated and the number of sessions recommended.
In general, a shock wave therapy session can cost between 40 and 80 euros. However, at specialised centres like KINEO Benidorm, we offer personalised packages that include several sessions tailored to the physiology of your condition, to get the most out of the treatment.
It's worth remembering that investing in your health matters. The right treatment can prevent future complications and improve your quality of life. What's more, most patients notice improvement from the first sessions, which makes the cost a worthwhile investment.
Who is shock wave therapy suitable for?
This therapy is ideal for people with musculoskeletal and/or pelvic floor conditions looking for an effective solution. Some examples include:
Athletes with overuse injuries, such as tendinitis or muscle strain.
People with chronic pain in the shoulders, knees, elbows or heels.
Patients with plantar fasciitis or heel spurs.
Anyone wanting to improve their mobility and general wellbeing.
People who haven't improved with conventional treatment for pelvic floor dysfunction.
This therapy is also suitable for all ages and can be combined with other treatments such as physiotherapy, pilates, Kegel exercises, or fitness training to enhance the results.

How to prepare for a shock wave therapy session
To get the most out of the therapy, it's important to follow a few recommendations before and after each session:
Initial consultation: a full assessment is carried out to determine whether the therapy is right for you.
Avoid anti-inflammatories: don't take anti-inflammatory medication for at least 48 hours before treatment, unless your doctor advises otherwise.
Comfortable clothing: wear clothes that allow easy access to the area being treated.
Hydration: stay well hydrated to support recovery.
Rest: avoid intense physical activity on the day of treatment, so as not to interfere with the regeneration process.
After the session, it's normal to feel mild discomfort or redness in the treated area, but this disappears within a few hours. Our team will guide you through every step, so your experience is safe and effective.
