Acoustic Compression Therapy
PiezoWave Therapy
This advanced treatment therapy is an effective, non-invasive solution to the pain associated with the musculoskeletal system.
It delivers high-energy percussions to the injured/affected area being treated. They’re NOT electric shocks, but mechanical pulses that travel through the tissue being treated.
Non-invasive, Quick, and Comfortable
PiezoWave is a device that is classified as myofascial acoustic compression therapy. It uses low intensity shock waves to target damaged tissue to manipulate and compress tissue.
This manipulation increases circulation and blood flow. It can be used for the treatment of musculoskeletal conditions including neck pain, hip pain, shoulder pain, chronic trigger point pain, low back pain, etc. It is non-invasive, quick, and comfortable.
Patient-Guided Pain Relief
The sources of pain are not always found in the area where the pain seems to be radiating from. This is clinically called referred pain. The distancing of the pain sensation from its source can make treatment more difficult. Diagnosis of referred pain and the recognition of the originating pain triggering points can be accomplished using the PiezoWave.
How Does it Work?
During each painless treatment laser energy increases circulation, drawing water, oxygen, and nutrients to the damaged area. This creates an optimal healing environment that reduces inflammation, swelling, muscle spasms, stiffness, and pain. As the injured area returns to normal, function is restored and pain is relieved.
- A typical PiezoWave Therapy treatment takes between 10 and 20 minutes
- Normally, 1-2 treatments per week are performed
- A total of 3-6 treatments may be necessary before lasting improvement is achieved
- With acute pain, a single session of PiezoWave Therapy is often successful
Who Is The Ideal Candidate?
Patients with chronic or unresponsive injuries that have tried other methods of care to no avail may be great candidates for this type of therapy.
Some common injuries that benefit from Piezowave/shockwave therapy:
- Headaches
- Neck pain: Whiplash injury, tech neck,
- Hip pain/Low back pain
- Pain and tissue inflammation associated with Arthritis
- Elbow pain: Tennis elbow, Golfer’s elbow,
- Shoulder pain: Rotator cuff injury, Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis),
- Tendonopathy: tendonitis and tendonosis
- Wrist or Ankle Pain
- Plantar Fasciitis
- Myofascial dysfunction
- Chronic trigger point pain
- Repetitive stress injuries
- Sprains and strains

Listen, they tried their best to get a nice photo 😂
Dr. O’Hara and Dr. VanderWal traveled to Dallas over the weekend to attend the Decompression Summit hosted by HillDT. They were updated on all of the latest research surrounding our incredible decompression table we have at the office and are so inspired to bring that knowledge back into our care in order to provide the best possible outcomes for our patients! They learned even more about the extraordinary results for people who have suffered from acute and chronic neck and low back pain, degenerative disc disease, and disc bulges/disc herniations!
Ask our providers about how this amazing non surgical option might help you!

Thank you to ChiroHealth!! I’m so grateful for the results I have found with the decompression therapy. 
Attention Patients:
Northland Drive has been closed in both directions in northern Grand Rapids, causing significant delays. Provided is an alternative route if you are traveling northbound.
If you find you are going to be more than 10 minutes late please call or text our office to let us know. We are doing our best to accommodate all delays to the very best of our ability!
There’s road closed signs at the entrances of Brewer and Chauncey. A police officer was sitting nearby so I’m not sure if bypassing the signs unless you live there and can prove it. You could get a ticket.
Just heard the road is open! ☺️
