WHAT OUR PATIENTS ARE SAYING
Very professional staff and amazing Doctor! He is the best! Dr Cowan always makes sure you understand every detail. Dr Cowan is an amazing human being who wants the best for his patients always. His staff is super nice besides professional!
I started seeing Dr. Cowan in February 2024, at the referral of my primary care physician. I was pleased to speak with Dr. Cowan about my pain levels, the onset of pain, and what may or may not exacerbate the pain. (He doesn't know it, but he cured me of my fear of getting my back cracked. He's amazing!) Dr. Cowan and his staff are great listeners and accommodating, and they make you feel like you didn't go to a doctor's office. In the past year, I have made strides in my rehabilitation journey and I have this office to thank for it.
Dr. Cowan is great! He explained to me the problem and fixed it. He also gave me exercises which really helped. If you are ever in an auto accident I would recommend him. The staff was very polite and professional as well.

How Shockwave Therapy Works
Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) has been a physical therapy modality for 20 years. Professional athletes in respected organizations like the NBA plagued by injuries have received ESWT and recovered with great success for many years. This therapy effectively treats sports injuries, tendon injuries, ligament injuries, muscle pain, and other soft tissue injuries.
Shockwave Therapy is a trigger point treatment that uses acoustic waves or shockwaves to induce microtrauma to injured tissues. The microtraumas stimulate repair processes, like neovascularization, which is the formation of new blood vessels. Neovascularization helps increase blood flow to damaged tissues, deliver essential nutrients for healing, and relieve pain symptoms.
So, get started relieving your injury-related pain and accelerating your recovery by scheduling a consultation at Cowan Chiropractic & Rehabilitation in Wilmington for Shockwave Therapy.
