ESWT


What makes ESWT unique is that it is one of the very few technologies in any field of medicine that seems to be able to jump start the healing process in chronic, non-healing injuries and move them back into the acute phase of healing.

Experience a quick and painless treatment session lasting approximately 10 minutes at Regenerative Medicine Naples. While anesthesia is typically unnecessary, we understand that some patients may experience discomfort during their initial treatment. Rest assured, only 1% of our patients require local anesthesia, which can be administered as needed. By the third treatment, most patients with conditions such as Plantar Fasciitis or Achilles Tendonitis see significant improvement, eliminating the need for further anesthesia. Our advanced low-energy ESWT procedure not only minimizes discomfort but also desensitizes the treated area for enhanced comfort. With just 5 treatments spaced 4-7 days apart, you can embark on your journey to recovery with confidence.

A local / regional anesthesia will be administered then after 5 minutes the procedure is started. Expect 15-20 minutes for treatment but you will be totally anesthetized. Usually one treatment is all that is needed, but on a rare occasion a second application would be required at 6 months.


What is ESWT?

Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (or ESWT) is a revolutionary technology that uses shockwaves to treat chronic, painful conditions of the musculoskeletal system.

A shockwave is an intense, but very short energy wave traveling faster than the speed of sound. The word "Extra-corporeal" means "outside the body" and refers to the fact that the shockwaves are generated outside the body.

Low energy Shockwave as a cost effective, medication free, safe way of addressing a very difficult problem.


I am very pleased and impressed so far with the lessening of my pain in my plantar fascia and Achilles area from the shock wave therapy. A much deeper relief than all the cortisone injections that I have received in the past. I just read yesterday, on a web site, that I should not be taking anti inflammatory medication in order to facilitate the best outcome. I discontinued the ibuprofen that I take, for my degenerative disk disease, and will substitute Tylenol, for now. My nerve pain in the left foot, from the anesthesia, is also slowly improving. I cut the toe out of a pair of wool socks, triple rolled them and use them at night, over my heels and ankles. This has protected the nerve from bumps and keeps the area warmer, feels great and seems to facilitating over all recovery. Backed off the B vitamins, as the niacin was burning me up. The custom orthotics with my new roll bar New Balance shoes are outstanding, I cannot say enough. As a Fire Fighter my plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendinitis was so debilitating that I was afraid that I may not make it to retirement, but that has all changed. Thanks Dr Kevin Lam, see you on the 24th for my follow up.

For the past eight months, I had this terrible heel pain. I have gone from doctor to doctor and still no one was able to give me relief from heel pain. I came to the office of Dr. Kevin Lam through the recommendation of a colleague, a patient of Dr. Lam herself. After a thorough examination, Dr. Kevin Lam gave me my options. I chose the nonsurgical ESWT shockwave therapy - it worked! I did not even have to go through surgery as what other podiatrists recommended. Definitely -- five stars.
