O’Brien’s Signature Treatments

Shockwave Therapy in La Crosse

Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive, research-backed treatment that uses acoustic waves to stimulate tissue repair, reduce pain, and improve mobility. At O’Brien Physical Therapy & Wellness, we use this advanced technique to support your body’s natural healing process—without medication or surgery.

Shockwave Therapy is ideal for active individuals and anyone seeking long-lasting relief from stubborn, movement-limiting pain.

What to Expect During a Session

Each session is quick—typically 15 to 30 minutes—and focused on your specific area of pain. Here’s what you can expect:


  1. Personalized Assessment: We begin with a one-on-one evaluation to identify the root of your symptoms.
  2. Targeted Treatment: The shockwave device delivers pulses to the affected area, stimulating blood flow and healing.
  3. Minimal Downtime: Most people experience little to no downtime and can return to daily activities right away.
  4. Lasting Results: A series of sessions can significantly reduce chronic pain and improve function over time.


We tailor your treatment plan based on your condition, health history, and goals—because true healing is never one-size-fits-all.
