Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) is a modern and highly effective treatment method. Compressed air accelerates a projectile inside a guiding tube. When the projectile hits an applicator at the end of the tube, a pressure wave is produced and radially expands into the target tissue. When these high-energy sound waves are introduced into the body, pathological alterations of tendons, ligaments, capsules, muscles and bones can be healed.

Shockwave Therapy is used to treat:

• Plantar Fasciitis
• Patellar Tendonitis (Jumper’s Knee)
• Periarticular Shoulder Pain
• Metatarsalgia (Pain in the Ball of Your Foot)
• Calf Muscle Shortening
• Tibial Stress Syndrome (Shin Splints)
• Achilles Tendinopathy
• Treatment of tendinopathies (tendon injuries)
• Back pain
• Hamstring pain
• Myofascial trigger points (general muscle pain)
• Bursitis
• Hallux rigidus (stiff big toe)
• Scar tissue
• Calcific rotator cuff tendonitis
• Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis)
• Shoulder pain
• Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis)
• Heel spur
• Stress fractures
• Enhancement of bone healing
• Calcific Tendonitis
