EPAT Patient Education Carousel

EPAT Patient Education

At Health Plus PT, we believe that knowledge leads to confidence and better healing. That’s why we created the EPAT Patient Education Carousel — an easy, step-by-step guide designed to explain how Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Therapy (EPAT), also called shockwave therapy, works and what patients can expect.

What Is EPAT?

EPAT is a modern, non-invasive treatment that uses focused sound waves to stimulate the body’s natural healing process. By improving blood flow, breaking down scar tissue, and reducing inflammation, it helps relieve chronic pain and restore mobility without surgery or injections.

Conditions Treated with EPAT

The carousel highlights common conditions that respond well to EPAT, including:

Plantar fasciitis and heel spurs

Achilles tendon pain

Tennis or golfer’s elbow

Shoulder pain and calcifications

Other stubborn soft-tissue injuries

What Patients Can Expect

Patients often feel more at ease when they know what’s coming. The education carousel explains:

Short sessions: usually 5–10 minutes per area

Treatment series: about 4–6 weekly sessions

Comfort level: tapping or vibration, sometimes mild soreness

Recovery: no downtime — patients can walk out and continue normal activities

Healing Timeline

Relief can begin after the first session, but results usually build gradually. Most patients see significant improvement after completing the full treatment series, with continued healing for weeks afterward.

Why an Education Carousel Works

Many patients are new to EPAT. A visual, step-by-step guide answers their most common questions, sets realistic expectations, and builds trust in the treatment. By combining EPAT with guided physical therapy and exercises, patients not only recover faster but also stay actively involved in their care.

Take the Next Step

If you’re living with chronic pain and wondering whether EPAT could help, our team at Health Plus PT is here to guide you. With clear education and expert care, we make sure every patient feels confident and supported on their healing journey.
