The pressure and sensation felt during treatment will vary depending on the applicator head attachment your chiropractor or therapist chooses to use. The pressure waves may feel like a light pulsing tissue massage or a deeper, more intense tissue release. Often patients describe feeling a great localization and reprooduction of the precise point causing their pain, and a referral of the trigger point, which releases pain in nearby areas.
What is EPAT Technology?
EPAT is a non-invasive modern and highly effective treatment method: high-energy sound waves are introduced into the painful areas of the body. Pressure wave technology accelerates the healing process in the body by stimulating the metabolism and enhancing blood circulation to regenerate damaged tissue. Strong energy pulses are applied to the affected area. These pulses occur for short periods of time, creating micro-cavitation bubbles that expand and burst. The force created by these bubbles penetrates tissue and
stimulates cells in the body that are responsible for bone and connective tissue healing.
How is the treatment performed?
EPAT treatment is noninvasive. Gel is applied to the treatment area; pressure waves are then released through the applicator as it is moved over the treatment area.
What type of results are expected?
Beneficial effects are often experienced after only 1 or 2 treatments and there is no downtime. Many patients report immediate pain relief after treatment. The technology has a 91% success rate as per clinical studies, patients treated report being pain free and /or

joree HokansonVery professional. I went in for cupping and some back/neck pain. We discover an underlying cause and offered suggestions without me feeling forced to make decisions right away. I didn’t feel like they were in a rush, but they were quick and efficient.
Carey LeepEasy to book online when I feel my back or neck is out of whack and Dr. Bradford is amazing, knowledgeable, and has always helped get everything back in place. He is fantastic as is their great team. Good communication and I love their hydrobed pre-adjustment.
