What is Focus Shockwave Therapy?
Focus Shockwave Therapy (also known as ESWT) uses precisely targeted acoustic waves to stimulate deep tissue healing. Unlike radial shockwave, focused shockwave penetrates deeper into soft tissues and bone, reaching up to approximately 4.7 inches beneath the skin.
This technology allows us to target specific areas of injury while promoting tissue regeneration, increasing circulation, reducing pain, and improving mobility without injections or surgery.

What to Expect During Treatment
Evaluation
Your therapist will examine your injury, movement patterns, and goals to determine if you’re a good candidate for Focus Shockwave Therapy.
Treatment
A handheld shockwave device is applied to the target area. You may feel mild discomfort, but treatment typically lasts only a few minutes.
Movement and strength progression
Following shockwave, we incorporate mobility and strength-based exercises to reinforce tissue healing and restore normal movement.
Follow-up
Most patients benefit from a short series of treatments. Your therapist will guide you through the full recovery plan.
Before & After: Focused Shockwave Therapy Following Hip Replacement
After a total hip replacement, Rhonda Tharp experienced significant complications, including a hematoma and seroma. Her physician was concerned she might need another surgery to drain the fluid from her leg.
Instead, Bryan Graham developed a treatment plan using Focused Shockwave Therapy combined with therapeutic exercises. Rhonda noticed improvement after her very first treatment. After completing 10 Shockwave Therapy sessions, the drainage had resolved, her incision had healed remarkably well and her physician was impressed with the results.
5-Star Patient Review
“Bryan Graham has helped my husband and me for many years, and he has truly been a miracle worker for us.
Several years ago, after I tripped on the stairs, I was unable to bend over and had been living with back pain for six months. Bryan had my back feeling better in just five minutes.
Later, an orthopedic doctor was certain I would need shoulder surgery because I could not raise my arm from my side. Instead, I went to physical therapy for a few months and was able to avoid surgery. My doctor even said that if he had been a betting man, he would have lost that bet. He was pleasantly surprised by my recovery.
Once again, Bryan Graham has worked his magic. After a total hip replacement, I experienced major complications, including a hematoma and seroma. My doctor thought he might need to operate again to drain the fluid from my leg. When I went to see Bryan, he recommended Focused Shockwave Therapy along with therapeutic exercises. I could feel a difference after the very first treatment. After ten treatments, all of the drainage was gone, and my incision looked incredible. Even my doctor was impressed.
I would highly recommend Bryan Graham for any physical therapy needs. He is professional, easy to work with and highly respected in the medical community.”
