What are the main benefits you can expect

The main benefits of shockwave therapy are fast pain relief and improved mobility. As it does not involve surgery and there is no need for painkillers, it is an ideal therapy to speed up recovery and manage acute or chronic (long-term) pain conditions including tendon and muscle problems. Studies have shown a 70–85% success rate across a range of conditions. It may not work for everyone, but shockwave therapy can help most people even when other treatments have failed.

What is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave therapy, also known as Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT), is a type of treatment used in orthopaedics, Osteopathy , physiotherapy, sports medicine. It is a non-invasive way of restarting the natural healing process. It does this by causing a short-term (acute) inflammatory response, much like the ‘normal’ process that happens after an injury. The treatment involves using a device to send shockwaves through your skin to influence the affected tissues beneath. The body responds by increasing the blood circulation to, and the metabolism in the affected area.

Injuries typically treated

Shoulder injuries including Rotator cuff tendonitis, Frozen Shoulder or Impingement

Knee injuries such as Runner’s and Jumper’s Knee, ITB inflammation

Achilles tendon inflammation

Plantarfasciitis -Painful heels and soles of feet when walking

Golfer’s and Tennis elbow

Initial Consultation and Shockwave Therapy treatment

The initial consultation will confirm that ESWT is suitable for your injury. If you are happy to proceed the injured area will be treated with Shockwave. It will be combined with an optimal combination of soft tissue, joint articulation and manipulation and therapeutic exercises as appropriate depending on how acute your injury is.

Hugo is a superb Osteo and a pleasure to visit. The work done during the sessions has alleviated acute pain due to an old injury, and the exercises provided to perform in between sessions has helped to maintain mobility. I would highly recommend Hugo.

I came to Hugo with really bad back pain and he recommended some exercises that has been really helpful . He has been seeing me for 3 months now and I have definitely seen some gradual improvements and probably improved 50% more than when I started

I was referred to Hugo by my golf instructor as I had a bad shoulder. I had a very good course of treatment over a month from Hugo who is experienced with golf injuries. I am back to golf with full movement of the shoulder & would highly recommend Hugo.

Hugo was highly recommended to me. He does not disappoint! His treatment of an extremely painful shoulder strain caused by bad posture at the computer has meant I have been able to return to work. His advice and tailored exercises are excellent and given in a kind, practical and accessible way. I am now doing daily exercises he demonstrated and will keep them up as I feel the benefits.

Suffering from back and neck pain, I have recently had 3 sessions with Hugo which have significantly helped. He has also been great in following up with videos of specific exercises. Would throughly recommend Hugo

Hugo is very knowledgeable and takes great attention to detail, which is especially important when treating someone in pain. So if you want high quality osteopathy advice and manipulation, I recommend him highly.

I came to see Hugo as I was suffering from tennis elbow. I had a very good course of treatment over a number of weeks including some shock wave therapy. This has helped significantly. Thanks Hugo. Would highly recommend.

Hugo is amazing. He has literally got me back up and running, and done what 6 months of physio had failed to do, all in just 3 sessions. Would highly recommend.

When I initially sough treatment from Hugo for lower back pain, I was in excruciating discomfort. However, after undergoing four therapy sessions under his expert care, I experienced a remarkable improvement. The lower back pain I had been enduring decreased significantly, by an impressive 90%.allowing me to regain my mobility and resume my daily activities with ease. Hugo's skill and dedication have truly made a substantial deference in my well-being, and I couldn't be more grateful for his exceptional osteopathic care.

I visted Hugo with neck pain. I instantly felt relief after my first session and each week Hugo gave me exercises and a target to work towards. He has really eased the pain and very much focused the treatment around what I needed and could achieve.

Hugo has been great ever since I first went to see him a month ago. The analysis if the issue and the explanation have allowed me to understand the problem at hand. The treatment has helped with pain management and reinforcing the required areas to manage to return to sport.The medical follow up is not solely at the appointment but regular correspondence to check in and ensure recovery is optimal.I would highly recommend.

Hugo creates a welcoming environment and has been able to help me with both my back and jaw problems. I would highly recommend!

Very professionalArrived unable to take weight on one leg. Immediate relief of acute pain then over the next few days gradual relief of chronic pain. Highly recommended

Hugo was recommended by a friend as I put my back out. I have scolioses of the lumbar spine area which cannot be reversed. Hugo was able to identify the initial problem together with what had caused it and was able to work his magic which improved my pain level tremendously. His explanation of the cause and what was needed to help maintain a healthier posture was easily understandable. I now do the exercises he gave me on a daily basis and it has much improved my flexibility and currently I’m in no pain. I would highly recommend him to anyone requiring the services of an Osteopath.

I've been to Hugo over a few years with different issues and he always explains everything clearly, gets to the root of the problem and provides me with exercises to help in the future. Highly recommend going to Hugo for whatever you need!

Hugo helped me tremendously during a nasty bout of sciatic and also provided sound advice on how to ensure my body is more resilient in the future.Jon

Excellent practitioner, I came in with terrible pain in my shoulder/arm and upper back, it was so bad it would wake me up at night. Hugo clearly explained what it was coming from and was able to treat it using a combination of shockwave and manipulations. After just 2 sessions it was already so much better. I received personalised exercises to do at home and it continues to improve every day. I can only recommend! Thanks a lot Hugo!

I went to see Hugo a few weeks ago suffering with pain in my ankle and lower back. I was really worried about the long term impact of a very flat and rolling in foot. Hugo took time and care to listen to me and carefully establish what was ‘going on’. After explaining what the issues were and taking me through some simple exercises and advice, I went away and was amazed at the almost immediate relief and improvements. Within a few weeks I am pain free and feel confident in how I can help my body moving forwards. Hugo’s professionalism and kind encouragement have been such a boost for my physical and metal wellbeing. I can’t recommend his services highly enough.

I visited Hugo with an on-going pain in my shoulder and neck. After three sessions, I feel very much recovered. Hugo is attentive and very professional. I recommend him highly.

I had been suffering with agonising lower back pain for about a week and a colleague recommended I see an Osteopath. I saw that Hugo was highly rated and booked an appointment for the next day. From the first consultation Hugo knew what the issue was and gave me faith and reassurance that he would be able to fix it and he did exactly that! Hugo was incredibly thorough at each appointment, working to solve the issue and providing me with exercises. Three weeks later, the pain has completely gone and I feel able to start running again. If you are suffering with pain, I would highly recommend you go to see Hugo.Thank you again Hugo!

Highly recommended. The treatment really helped my knees and got to the root of why I was experiencing pain and very happy they feel so much better now.

Hugo helped me to recover from back pain with a combination of in person sessions and at home exercises spread over a number of weeks. I received links to videos demonstrating each exercise and the correct technique. This helped greatly. Hugo was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend his services.

Hugo is a very experienced practitioner who was able to advise me of some simple exercises that have alleviated the problems I was experiencing in my knee. His manner is really kind and calm and I would recommend Hugo to anyone with an injury, niggle or concerns.

My husband recommended Hugo as he recently helped him recover from a total knee replacement operation.Hugo was able to explain why my hip and lower back were in pain and provided a treatment programme that included specific exercises that strengthened and stretched relevant muscles.Hugo showed me how to do the exercises and provided helpful video links for me to follow. Thanks to Hugo I am now pain free.Margot Thornton

Hugo recently treated me for a painful back problemUnable to stand up straightQuickly sorted this out , and now am right as rainHugo is an excellent Osteopath , always helpful and friendlyand would recommend Hugo to anyone who needs an Osteopath

I visited Hugo with an old hip injury that needed sorting and he was thorough trying to understand the cause and has given excellent advice with an exercise routine that he has patiently explained a few times so I perform them correctly. The old injury appears to be getting better quickly and I would thorough recommend.

Hugo is a total pro . He understands the human body with pin point accuracy and has the knowledge needed to fix the issues you present him with . I’m very grateful and impressed with the help he gave me . Highly recommend you give himA try

I’d highly recommend Hugo. Everything about the experience was extremely professional, thoughtful, reassuring and effective. After 3 sessions my shoulder and neck pain has gone, and I have a good set of exercises I’ll continue to use on a regular basis as they really complement my exercise routine.

Thorough assessment and professional treatment in a relaxed environment. Fantastic follow up and advice via email.

Hugo was simply fantastic! Went to him after getting a football injury and he has helped me massively. Would highly recommend!

Hugo has been fantastic help. In just a few short sessions he has significantly improved my issues. Will happily return when my body inevitably breaks again!

A friendly yet highly professional service, visiting the Osteopathy Partnership set me swiftly on the road to recovery. I have been a user of their services on a number of occasions and have never left the treatment room without my pain being lessened/alleviated and having been given a better understanding of the cause of my pain, a treatment plan and detailed and clear instructions on next steps. Following my appointment i was sent a follow up email confirming advice given. Very pleased with service and results.

I went to Hugo with back pain and spasms. Hugo was fantastic in explaining my back problem to me in detail and he was the first medical professional who actually made sense of what my problem was. He took various issues into account and provided me with a step by step plan of treatments with him, exercises at home and a lot more suggestions to improve, which I followed. 3 months on from being unable to sit down properly and being in a lot of pain, I have just hiked several times for 12km through the mountains on holiday with no back ache whatsoever. Thank you, Hugo!

Hugo at the Osteopathy Partnership has been my osteopath for more than 5 years.I usually am problem free thanks to the home/office exercises he provides to help maintain mobility and prevent problems reoccurring.He is very knowledgeable and generous with his advice. In my recent "MOT" visit I told him I had taken up running and as expected after he had finished the treatment, he showed me new exercises to warm up before my run and others to help strengthen key muscles to improve my stride, running form and performance. Hugo is my go to osteopath and his continued support for my musculoskeletal health is second to none. I warmly recommend him to who ever needs an osteopath in the Kingston area.

Would definitely recommend this practice, all treatment explained and followed up thoroughly…..

Prior to seeing Hugo, I've had no experience with osteopathic treatment. My introduction was excellent. I saw Hugo for problems I had with my lower back and neck/shoulder post an operation. The combination of massage and gentle adjustments worked like a charm. The pain was relieved and my general movements improved. I could run pain free for the first time in months. Hugo also provided exercises I could do to improve weak areas which improved my running form and meant I could go for longer without the pain I experienced before. On top of the treatment, Hugo is a pleasure as a person and made me feel comfortable. Would highly recommend you pay him a visit for any niggles.

Great treatment plus practical advice and exercises so that I can help myself.

Great professional! Very good attitude! He really wants to help your recovery, not just take your money! I recommend it!Thank you, Hugo!

I like to know what's going on with my body - why what's happening is happening and hence how the exercise programme is going to address the issue. Hugo is very good at explaining what's not working properly and how the routines he gives you will help address it. He's also very good at working out why an exercise may not be helping and adapting it to be more effective/less painful/difficult. He even gave me my first ever acupuncture this week which 3 days in seems already to be helping. Highly recommended

He literally saved my life. The first day I arrive in the studio I could barely walk and move because of sciatica and after only three visits I feel WAY better. You're an amazing doc!

Brilliant personalised care taking into account my particular health concerns. Very friendly and safe environment for the treatment. If only I’d known about this earlier!!! 100% recommend

I've been to see Hugo a few times now and always the same result - relief! Hugo gets to the krux of the issue quickly without jargon or fuss and works at 'fixing' you - quick. I also like the fact that he also does not push for multiple sessions like some i have seen in the past rather allows you to see how you feel and judge for yourself if you need further treatment. Hope I never have to go back but if I do I know I'm in good hands. Literally.

I would definitely recommend osteopathy treatment with Hugo. A professional yet friendly approach in a comfortable clinical setting. Hugo was prompt with admin requests and emailed video clips of home exercises as a well needed prompt!

Hugo is a great osteopath who has helped me and my wife with neck, back and knee pain over the last 5 years. Not only he knows the anatomy of human body well, but also he clearly explains to you what should be done at home to fix your problem.Even now, when we live far from Hugo's practice, we travel to see him whenever we have pain in our body as we are sure about the quality of the treatment.

Warm and friendly service, with detailed yet understandable breakdown of the extent of my injury. Provided positive support throughout the process too.

Very knowledable and helpful advice. Highly recommend.

I am so pleased to have found Hugo. I have seen him for a couple of issues and both times he has got straight to the cause. The treatment provided and the exercises passed to me have erradicated the pain. He provides clear explanation throughout.
