Extracorporeal shockwave therapy is a non-surgical treatment that uses high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate the body's natural healing process, to reduce pain and promote healing in bone, tendon, ligament and fascia in patients with musculoskeletal disorders,
• Frozen Shoulder, Tendinopathy, Calcific Tendinitis, Tears /Sprains
• Tennis Elbow, Lateral epicondylitis, Golfer’s Elbow
• Plantar fasciitis, Heel Spur, Achilles tendinopathy
• Knee osteoarthritis , Patellar Tendinopathy , etc
The Radial shockwave sends pulses in 5 to 10 microseconds and can reach a depth 5 centimetres.
Its physiological benefits:
1. It increases blood flow, cell permeability, and hence create a localized inflammatory response so as to initiate a healing process
2. Pain modulation in the peripheral nervous system
3. It stimulates cells like fibroblasts, involved in the reparative healing process.
4. It stimulated the release of growth factors in the injured tissue, which are essential for repair and regeneration.
Chiropractors are specialists in the diagnosis and non-surgical treatment of musculoskeletal conditions
