Acoustic Compression Therapy
What is ACT?
Acoustic Compression Therapy uses focused sound waves to stimulate healing within the body. The gentle vibration breaks down scar tissue and adhesions while increasing blood flow and activating the body’s natural repair processes. This leads to reduced pain, improved motion, and decreased muscle tension, especially in chronic or hard-to-treat areas.
Common Conditions we Treat
ACT has shown success in supporting recovery from:
- Arthritis pain
- Sprains and strains
- Tendinopathy and ligament injuries
- Rotator cuff injuries
- Plantar fasciitis
- IT band syndrome
- TMJ dysfunction
- Failed back surgery
- Achilles tendonitis and shin splints
What to Expect
- Appointments last 15–20 minutes.
- The therapy is performed directly on the skin using a light coupling gel.
- Intensity and focus are adjusted for each patient’s comfort.
- A mild pulsing or vibration is normal; discomfort should be minimal.
- Most patients benefit from 6–12 treatments, as prescribed by the doctor.
