Shockwave Therapy for Foot and Ankle Pain Now Available at Hove Clinic
Are you struggling with chronic foot or heel pain that just won’t go away? At Hove Foot Clinic in Brighton we’re delighted to now be offering Swiss DolorClast® Radial Shockwave Therapy (rESWT) — an advanced, non-invasive treatment for plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendon pain and other stubborn foot conditions.
Shockwave therapy (also known as extracorporeal shockwave therapy, or ESWT) is a modern treatment that produces shock waves using compressed air which are then transmitted broadly to the target tissue to:
· Stimulate natural healing in damaged tissues.
· Improve blood flow and cell regeneration.
· Break down scar tissue or calcium deposits.
· Reduce chronic pain and inflammation.
Why Choose Swiss DolorClast®?
Not all shockwave devices are the same. The Swiss DolorClast® system is considered the gold standard in shockwave therapy, trusted by sports medicine clinics, orthopaedic specialists, and podiatrists worldwide.
At our podiatry clinic, we use it because it is:
· Clinically proven to relieve heel and foot pain.
· Non-invasive and drug-free — no surgery, injections, or medications required.
· Safe and precise, with minimal discomfort and no downtime.
· Fast-acting — many patients feel improvement within just a few sessions.
What to Expect During Treatment
A typical shockwave therapy session at our clinic lasts about 10–15 minutes.
· No anaesthesia is required.
· Most patients experience only mild discomfort during treatment.
· A series of 3–6 sessions is usually recommended.
· Many patients notice pain relief after just 2–3 treatments.
Best of all, there is no downtime — you can walk out of the clinic and continue your day as normal.
If heel pain, plantar fasciitis, or tendon injuries are holding you back from enjoying daily activities, shockwave therapy could be the solution. Our podiatrists will assess your condition and create a personalised treatment plan to help you get back on your feet quickly and safely
