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?

Rob LammAlways gets me back on my feet
Melissa PerryI inquired with Dr. Jon Wilhelm regarding an issue I’m having with foot pain after seeing him on a Q&A. He was very knowledgable regarding different treatments including PEMF. I live too far away from his clinic to visit as a patient. Yet, he took the time to research where I can find someone reputable and closer to my area. I’m certain he is busy and his immediate help and response was greatly appreciated.

Pain stinks but Pro Chiropractic can get you out of pain!!
