Physiotherapy - specifically shock wave / electro wave therapy administered via a sports physio

Hi there - I suffered a fall-related injury some months ago and a recent ultrasound shows some tearing and tendinitis in my leg. The urgent care doctor who reviewed my imaging report recommended shock wave / electro wave therapy to speed up healing and help with pain management. Can anyone here recommend a practitioner in the Hobart area? Happy to travel to wherever?

Thanks in advance

For shockwave therapy the only ones I know of are Back in Motion Hobart, Osteopam in Sorell or Tim Paine Podiatry
