Our Work
“I highly recommend the team at RecoverRx PT for your physical therapy needs. I am a physician in the sports medicine field and went to David with RecoverRx when my post-surgical PT was not going to plan. David was on great at developing a custom new plan to allow me to achieve my goals. If you want a team that listens to your goals and helps your achieve them then RecoverRx is the place for you. Nothing but the best at this place. Will use them again if I have future PT needs..”
-S. Kirk
“I have had back problems on and off for most of my adult life. I have tried several PTs in the past, along with various other treatment modalities. But Dr. David with RecoverRX was the first time I felt “healed.” I am now able to consistently do CrossFit pain-free and feel so much stronger. I highly recommend this clinic!”
-T. Ortiz

Got Questions? Let’s Clear Them Up
Is Shockwave Therapy painful?
Everyone’s pain threshold is different, but most patients describe the sensation during treatment as a deep tapping or pulsing pressure—not sharp or unbearable, but definitely noticeable.
It’s the sound wave penetrating into the tissue, doing the real work at a deeper level than manual therapy or massage can reach.
At RecoverRx, we always adjust the intensity to suit your comfort and the specific area being treated. Sensitive spots—like the bottom of the foot or near bone—can feel more intense, but the sensation usually fades within moments of stopping the treatment. And because sessions are brief (typically 10–15 minutes), discomfort is kept to a minimum.
You won’t need anesthesia or downtime afterward, and many patients are surprised by how much better they feel within just a few visits.
Still have questions about how it feels? Request an Appointment and experience it for yourself in a low-pressure setting.
How many sessions will I need before I feel results?
Relief from Shockwave Therapy can be fast—but it’s also cumulative. Some people notice a difference after just one or two sessions, especially for fresh or mild injuries.
Others, especially those with long-standing chronic issues like plantar fasciitis or tendonitis, typically begin to feel real change after three to five treatments.
At RecoverRx, we base the treatment plan on your condition, your goals, and how your body responds. We’ll never over-treat or push unnecessary sessions.
Our aim is to give your body just the right stimulus to restart the healing process—without dragging it out.
Most plans range between 3 and 6 treatments, spaced about a week apart, but we’ll review everything with you up front so you have a clear idea of what to expect.

What types of conditions does Shockwave Therapy help with?
Shockwave Therapy is especially effective for soft tissue conditions that haven’t responded well to stretching, massage, exercise, or rest. These include:
- Plantar fasciitis and heel pain
- Tendonitis (Achilles, patellar, rotator cuff, gluteal)
- Tennis or golfer’s elbow
- IT band syndrome and hip bursitis
- Myofascial trigger points
- Post-surgical scar tissue
- Pelvic floor dysfunction
- Chronic low back or sacroiliac joint pain
- Muscle tightness from overuse or training
At RecoverRx, we use Shockwave Therapy when we see tissue that’s stuck—stuck in inflammation, stuck in poor movement patterns, or stuck in incomplete healing. This treatment helps disrupt the “stuck” cycle and open up a new path forward.

Can I keep working out or staying active while doing Shockwave Therapy?
In most cases, yes—and that’s one of the big advantages. You don’t have to put your life on hold.
In fact, many of our active clients use Shockwave Therapy specifically to stay in motion while recovering. It’s often part of a broader rehab or performance plan where we’re balancing mobility, tissue recovery, and strength.
That said, there may be situations where we recommend modifying certain movements for a few days—especially if your body is reacting strongly to the treatment. We’ll always explain those choices and keep you in the loop, so nothing feels like a mystery.
The goal isn’t to bench you—it’s to get you moving better and with less pain, so you can return to activity with more confidence and less risk of reinjury.

What exactly is Shockwave Therapy, and how does it work?
Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses focused acoustic waves to stimulate healing in muscles, tendons, fascia, and connective tissue.
At RecoverRx, we use a highly precise piezoelectric device (the Piezowave²T) that delivers energy deep into the tissue—right where your body needs help healing.
When these sound waves are directed into areas of pain or dysfunction, they cause microtrauma at the cellular level. That might sound concerning, but it’s actually a good thing—this controlled stimulus triggers your body’s natural repair response.
It increases blood flow, breaks up scar tissue, reduces chronic inflammation, and helps reprogram pain signals. In short, it helps “wake up” tissues that have been stuck in a slow or incomplete healing cycle.
Because the treatment is targeted and focused, it reaches deeper than massage or ultrasound, and it doesn’t rely on medication, injections, or surgery.
Sessions are short (usually 10–15 minutes), there’s no downtime, and you can return to normal activity the same day.
If you’ve been living with pain that won’t go away—or an injury that keeps flaring up—Shockwave Therapy could be the next step toward real, lasting relief.
