Shockwave Therapy & Ultrasound Imaging

Shockwave & Ultrasound

Looking for shockwave therapy or a diagnostic ultrasound scan in Kings Hill? At DCM Clinics, we combine musculoskeletal ultrasound imaging with shockwave therapy for patients across Kings Hill, West Malling, Maidstone and Kent, so we can see exactly what's going on and target treatment where it's needed.

Diagnostic Ultrasound Imaging
Ultrasound lets us look directly at your tendons, muscles and ligaments in real time, during your appointment. It helps us confirm what's causing your pain, check the extent of an injury and track how tissue is responding as you recover. No waiting weeks for a scan, and no guesswork about what's happening under the skin.

Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy uses targeted acoustic pressure waves applied to the painful area. It's commonly used for long-standing tendon and heel pain that hasn't settled with rest or exercise alone. Sessions are quick, typically delivered weekly over a short course, and always combined with a rehab programme to rebuild strength in the affected area.

Better together
Scanning first means shockwave is only used where it's clinically appropriate, and repeat imaging lets you see your progress, not just feel it.

Commonly used for:

• Achilles tendinopathy
• Plantar heel pain (plantar fasciitis)
• Patellar tendinopathy (jumper's knee)
• Outer hip pain and gluteal tendinopathy
• Tennis and golfer's elbow
• Shoulder tendon pain
