About Shin Splints
What you should know
Shin splints — clinically known as medial tibial stress syndrome — is one of the most common overuse injuries in runners and athletes. It occurs when repeated stress on the tibia overloads the bone and surrounding connective tissue, causing pain and inflammation. When rest alone isn't enough and symptoms keep returning with training, focused shockwave therapy can help address the underlying tissue stress and support recovery.
Our approach
How We Treat Chronic Shin Splints
At Chiropractic Remedy, we use focused shockwave therapy to target the periosteal tissue and muscle attachments along the tibia to reduce pain and support healing.
Shockwave therapy may help by:
- 1Reducing periosteal irritation and bone stress response along the tibia
- 2Increasing circulation to the affected tissue
- 3Stimulating tissue repair at the muscle-bone attachment
- 4Decreasing chronic pain sensitivity in the lower leg
- 5Supporting a faster, more durable return to training
Shockwave therapy is non-surgical, drug-free, and requires no downtime. Many patients begin noticing improvement within a few treatments.
Shockwave therapy may be appropriate if:
- Your shin pain has lasted longer than 6–8 weeks
- Shin splints keep recurring with every return to training
- Rest alone hasn't provided lasting relief
- You want to avoid time away from sport or activity
- You're looking for a non-invasive option to support tissue healing and prevent recurrence
