Clinical Case Study: Enhancing Recovery with Shockwave Therapy – Physio Jonathan Clark

Jonathan Clark Physiotherapy | Multi-site Private Practice | Southampton

---

At Jonathan Clark Physiotherapy, the team regularly treats a range of chronic musculoskeletal conditions, including tendinopathies, epicondylitis, and plantar fasciopathies. These cases—particularly when chronic— often require prolonged rehabilitation times.

“The specific challenges we faced were related to the time it takes to rehabilitation conditions like tendinopathies, epicondylitis, and plantar fasciopathies. A lot of these conditions, particularly the more chronic cases, can take months and months to get better. This led me to explore Shockwave Therapy, a scientifically proven, and evidence-based option that would expedite these timescales.”

Discovery and Motivation

Jonathan was introduced to Shockwave Therapy through a trusted mentor. Inspired by the positive outcomes seen in other clinics, he decided to invest in the technology.

“I first learned about Shockwave Therapy through my business mentor. He would often talk about the success other clinics were having with this service. Following on from our conversations, this then motivated me to purchase a machine, and try it out at one of my Physiotherapy clinics.”

Initial Impressions and Clinical Impact

The impact of Shockwave Therapy on treatment timelines and patient satisfaction was immediate.

“Quite honestly, I was blown away. Conditions that would typically take 6–12 months to get better, were suddenly getting better in just 3–6 months. And the customer satisfaction levels in terms of speedy treatment outcomes went through the roof.”

Purchasing Process and Accessibility

A flexible finance option made investing in the technology feasible for the business.

“The purchasing process was easy peasy. I opted to pay for the machine over a 3 year period with a finance deal in place. This helped me to afford the machine.”

Clinical Success Stories

Shockwave Therapy is now considered the gold standard across all four clinics for several common conditions.

“We now use Shockwave Therapy as the gold standard for treating all tendinopathies, epicondylitis, and plantar fasciopathies at Jonathan Clark Physiotherapy. We’ve had hundreds of cases of successful outcomes.”

Patient Feedback:

“I visited Jonathan Clark physio with very painful Achilles’ tendons. Amy worked miracles with the Shockwave treatment. After six session I am refereeing 6 games a week without pain. Very pleased with the outcome and care taken by the team throughout.” – Andy Sly

“Treated for tennis elbow, golfers elbow with traditional remedies, acupuncture and shockwave therapy. Also treated for a herniated disk in my back. The results in each case were exceptional and the approach was professional, welcoming and management through the Covid 19 challenges was first class. Would definitely recommend treatment here.” – Clive Thomas

Workflow and Practice Integration

With Shockwave Therapy now available in every location, it has become a vital part of the clinic’s workflow and therapist toolkit.

“The integration of Shockwave Therapy Devices, which we now have in all 4 of my clinics, has massively helped workflow and efficiency. My therapists have access to Shockwave Therapy with all clients they see, and administer this when appropriate. It speeds up treatment outcomes, lending itself to happy clients, and happy therapists too.”

Device Features and Reliability

Portability and long-term reliability of the Mobile 2 RPW device have made it a practical and enduring choice.

“We use the portable Mobile 2 RPW machine. Which is really handy, as one of my clinic has 3 rooms, and we can easily carry the device to the room in which it’s needed. They’re very easy to service too. And we don’t have any issues with the device itself, which is great. The machines are now a few years old, and still working like magic.”

Overall Experience and Recommendation

Jonathan summarises his experience with the technology in simple terms:

“My overall experience is excellent. Superb. And I’d totally recommend it to other clinicians.”
