Your wrists work harder than almost any other joint in your body. Between typing, lifting, gripping, and countless small daily movements, it's no surprise that wrist pain is one of the most common complaints we hear from patients in Omaha. Whether it's a dull ache that builds throughout the day or a sharp pain that flares with certain movements, wrist discomfort can make even simple tasks — buttoning a shirt, opening a jar, holding a phone — feel frustrating and difficult.
At Complete Balance Chiropractic, we take a whole-body approach to wrist pain. Rather than simply masking the discomfort, we look for the underlying cause so we can help you find lasting relief.
Shockwave therapy, also called extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT), uses acoustic waves to deliver energy to a specific area of the body. The treatment is designed to stimulate tissue and promote the body's natural repair processes. Unlike surgery or injections, shockwave therapy is performed externally, meaning there are no incisions or needles involved.
Shockwave therapy is commonly used as part of treatment for certain chronic or difficult-to-resolve soft-tissue conditions. Depending on the individual, it may be considered for issues such as:
- Plantar fasciitis and heel pain
- Tendon pain and tendinopathy
- Tennis elbow
- Achilles tendon discomfort
- Shoulder pain
- Muscle tightness
- Certain sports-related injuries
- Chronic soft-tissue pain
The appropriate treatment depends on the cause and location of the pain, so a professional evaluation is important before beginning therapy.
During treatment, a handheld device delivers controlled acoustic waves to the targeted area. These waves interact with the tissue and may help stimulate circulation, cellular activity, and the body's healing response.
Treatment typically takes a relatively short amount of time and does not require anesthesia or a lengthy recovery period. Some patients may experience temporary soreness or sensitivity afterward, similar to what can occur following physical activity.





A chiropractor is a licensed healthcare professional who specializes in diagnosing and treating disorders of the musculoskeletal system, especially issues involving the spine. Through hands-on spinal adjustments and other techniques, chiropractors work to relieve pain, improve mobility, correct alignment issues, and help the body function at its best without the use of drugs or surgery.
Not every type of pain requires the same treatment. The first step is understanding what is contributing to your symptoms. At Complete Balance Chiropractic, we look at the bigger picture rather than focusing solely on the location of your pain. Your evaluation can help determine whether shockwave therapy may be appropriate and how it could fit into a broader treatment plan. If you're dealing with persistent pain that hasn't responded to the solutions you've already tried, shockwave therapy may be worth exploring.
Contact Complete Balance Chiropractic to learn more about shockwave therapy and whether it may be an appropriate option for your condition.
One of the biggest advantages of shockwave therapy is that it provides a non-invasive option for people who are dealing with persistent pain. Results can vary depending on the condition, how long symptoms have been present, and other individual factors.
Chiropractors treat a wide range of conditions related to the spine, joints, and nervous system. This includes common issues like lower back pain, neck pain, sciatica, headaches, migraines, whiplash, sports injuries, poor posture, and joint stiffness. We also provide wellness care to help maintain spinal health and prevent future issues.
Every patient is different, so the number of sessions depends on your condition, how long you've had it, and your personal goals. Some patients find relief after just one or two visits, while others benefit from ongoing care. After a full assessment, we’ll recommend a personalized treatment plan that fits your lifestyle and recovery timeline.
