A Targeted Option for Stubborn Tendon Pain

Shockwave therapy uses externally applied acoustic energy. Vector Spine and Sport offers focused and radial systems for selected chronic tendon and soft-tissue conditions after an examination.

Two delivery methods. One plan selected around tissue, depth, diagnosis, and tolerance.
CONDITIONS CONSIDERED

Best suited to a defined clinical problem.

Shockwave is not a general treatment for every painful area. Dr. Reesor first evaluates the condition, previous care, tissue involved, and factors that may affect safety or response.

  • Plantar heel pain

  • Achilles tendinopathy

  • Patellar tendinopathy

  • Tennis or golfer’s elbow

  • Selected rotator cuff conditions

  • Calcific tendon problems

  • Persistent muscle or soft-tissue pain

  • Other overuse injuries after evaluation

FOCUSED VS. RADIAL

Different Energy Patterns for Different Treatment Goals

Focused shockwave

Delivers energy toward a more defined target and may be chosen for selected deeper structures or localized conditions.

Radial pressure wave

Disperses pressure more broadly near the surface and may be used across a wider soft-tissue area.

Clinical selection

The device, settings, treatment area, and number of visits depend on the diagnosis, examination, comfort, and response.

WHAT IT FEELS LIKE

Brief pulses with adjustable intensity.

Patients commonly describe a rapid tapping or pulsing sensation. Intensity can be adjusted during the session. Temporary soreness, redness, bruising, or sensitivity may occur. Improvement is not guaranteed, and meaningful change may take time.

Screening matters. Shockwave may be avoided or modified around pregnancy, malignancy in the treatment area, acute infection, certain bleeding or clotting risks, impaired sensation, open growth plates, or other clinical concerns.

QUESTIONS

Before Shockwave Treatment

There is no universal number. The plan depends on the condition, duration, severity, protocol, and response. Your progress should be reassessed rather than promised in advance.

No. The treatment uses acoustic pressure waves, not an electrical current delivered into the body.

A clinical assessment is needed to confirm that the painful area and condition are suitable and to screen for contraindications.

Many people resume normal daily activity, but temporary soreness is possible and activity guidance varies with the condition. Follow the clinician’s recommendations.

Jake is the most genuinely caring chiropractor I’ve ever had the privilege of working with. He took the time to really understand what I was going through — not just the physical pain, but the stress and emotion that came with it. I never felt rushed or like just another appointment on the calendar. He listened and explained everything clearly with simple tricks to help me remember my daily stretches. What makes Jake different is his heart. He truly cares about people, and that shows in every interaction. His care has made a real difference in my healing, not just physically, but in ways I didn’t expect. I’m deeply grateful. Thank you Jake.

Jake is just fantastic. I've been to a dozen or so chiropractors over the years and no one has come close to the time and care he spends with me. He's very thorough and knowledgeable.

I had a great experience. He took the time to ask several questions to fully understand any of the issues that I was having, and then he customized my treatment plan specifically for what I needed. I felt like he listened well, and really cared about what would help me the most. He was very personable and friendly, and he was happy to answer any questions that I had. I was impressed.

2 years on. Do you suffer from joint pain, neck pain, back pain or general dis-ease. Let Dr. Jacob Reesor, D.C. guide you quickly back to health and happiness. Reesors' the only Doctor who can properly adjust me. He takes his time to listen to patients needs and he's a great guy. Thanks "Doctor J" for giving me comfortable sleep again without chronic neck pain. Conveniently located in the central valley close to Wheeler Farm. I guarantee 💯%, you're gonna love it! @RichFerguson143 update: Dr.Jacob listens, asks questions, offers advice before begining the adjustment. Highly recommend 👌 5 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Dr. Reesor was so inviting and professional. I was nervous for my adjustment and he made me feel at ease and talked me through every detail of the appointment. My neck started feeling better immediately after I walked out. Can’t recommend enough.

Dr. Reesor is very helpful and runs his office independently and is very aware of his patients needs and concerns. We have been seeing him for 5 years and will continue to do so and recommend him to others who need a great chiropractor.
