Shockwave Therapy in Beverly Hills

Dr. Jamie Mahtaban, DC, uses OMNIWave™ shockwave therapy to treat deeper joint problems. It is widely used for knee injuries, such as meniscal or ligament tears.

Shockwave therapy can stimulate tissue repair in the affected region. It works well for internal joint and soft tissue problems that cannot be physically reached. Treatment is based on the diagnosis and source of the issue. Our goal is to reduce pain and improve movement.

Shockwave therapy may also be beneficial when pain is linked to ongoing inflammation, stiffness, or limited mobility. If you are experiencing chronic joint, muscle, or tendon pain, shockwave therapy may help support your recovery.

What Is OMNIWave™ Shockwave Therapy?

OMNIWave™ shockwave therapy is a commonly used treatment in chiropractic care. It is the latest and most advanced form of shockwave used to treat musculoskeletal conditions. It uses focused and high energy sound waves to promote healing. These waves stimulate the body’s natural healing processes and support tissue repair.

It is often used for deeper joint or soft tissue issues that are not accessible with manual therapy.

Which Conditions Can Shockwave Therapy Help Treat?

Shockwave therapy is typically used when the issue is more internal or deeper within the joint, such as:

  • Meniscus related knee problems
  • Ligament injuries
  • Pelvic pain
  • Overuse injuries
  • Joint related conditions 
  • Areas where direct pressure or hands-on work is limited

It is commonly used as part of a broader treatment approach depending on the diagnosis.

Benefits of OMNIWave™ Shockwave Therapy

OMNIWave™ shockwave therapy uses electrohydraulic shockwave technology. It can penetrate deep into the target area and treat the condition.

Some of the key benefits are:

  • Stimulate tissue repair
  • Improve healing response in deeper structures
  • More comfortable compared to traditional shockwave treatments
  • Support recovery in areas that are otherwise difficult to treat

It is especially useful when the provider cannot physically reach the problem area with tools or hands.

What to Expect During Shockwave Therapy Treatment

Prior to the shockwave treatment, you will undergo a detailed consultation where Dr. Mahtaban will gather information about your condition and medical history.

  1. Dr. Mahtaban first evaluates the affected area to determine the appropriate treatment approach.
  2. A handheld device is applied to the targeted region to deliver mechanical sound waves.
  3. Every session focuses on the specific joint, tendon, or soft tissue causing symptoms.
  4. Each treatment session typically last around 10 to 15 minutes and is performed in the office. 
  5. It is typically done once a week for 6 to 8 weeks, but it can vary based on the condition

Shockwave therapy may be combined with other therapies as part of a personalized care plan.
