What is involved in the procedure?

ESWT benefits patients because their condition can be treated extracorporeally, meaning outside of the body. Since ESWT is non-invasive, there is no lengthy recovery period, virtually no time off from work or risk of causing further damage. The same cannot be said with surgery.

During the treatment, you lie back comfortably with the area to be treated resting on the machine on a soft, water-filled membrane. To ensure patient comfort, a local anesthesia is used. The technician will make sure you are comfortable throughout the procedure. The technician uses an ultrasound scan to view and target the damaged location. During the treatment, you will hear repetitive clicking sounds.

The Excellence Shock Wave Therapy Technician and your Doctor will insist upon your comfort during treatment. Our technicians have performed tens of thousands of ESWT treatments and are proficient at using the analgesic effects of certain levels of shockwaves to make the treatment comfortable. Your comfort is a priority to us.

If you are nervous or anxious about treatment talk to your doctor or treatment coordinator. Our goal is to always make sure you are comfortable and relaxed during treatment!

How effective is ESWT?

Our own experience and the FDA ESWT study using our treatment protocol shows an overwhelming success rate. In the study, a group of 150 patients was asked to rate their pain level on a scale of 1 to 10. The average pain level before treatment was 7.7.

After receiving one ESWT treatment, the patients were asked one year later to rate their pain level again on a scale of 1 to 10. The patients who reported had an average pain score post-ESWT of 0.6. This is a 92% reduction in pain and a much higher rate of success than any non-surgical or surgical procedure. More importantly, ESWT is very safe.

Thank you, Dr. Lora B and Excellence Shock Wave Therapy. After five years of on-again-off-again chronic plantar fasciitis, ESWT did the trick. Almost every doctor had worked with me to try to alleviate the pain, without surgery. I have several pairs of custom orthotics, which I still use in almost every pair of shoes. Each treatment, including shots, worked, for a while. Dr. Baker convinced me to give the ESWT a shot. It took four months post-treatment for me to feel relief. With each follow-up visit, she promised the "magic" would happen and patiently encouraged me to be patient! I still need to stretch, wear shoes ALL the time, ice sometimes and other plantar tricks. But I would say my heel is 90% “normal” and I can hike and bike again. Yeah! Just in time to travel cross-country to visit National Parks.

What Is ESWT
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy or ESWT is an 18-minute non-surgical procedure used to cure chronic plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, tennis elbow, shoulder tendonitis, and other chronic tendinopathies.
Lithotripsy, a similar shock wave therapy procedure, is used regularly for breaking up and dispersing kidney stones. When urologists found that patients who had the kidney stone procedure presented with increased bone density and new tissue growth, the possibilities of shock wave therapy were revisited.
ESWT is used internationally for conditions all over the body. In the United States, an FDA study was performed for patients who suffer from chronic plantar fasciitis with or without the presence of a heel spur. The results were an amazing average reduction in pain of 92% with only one treatment. (This data reflects the results of the patients who participated in a one-year follow-up study with the Dornier EPOS Ultra machine.)
ESWT benefits patients because their condition can be treated extracorporeally, meaning outside of the body. Because the treatment is non-invasive many of the expenses and risks of surgery are eliminated. Excellence Shock Wave Therapy uses the Dornier EPOS Ultra for all our orthopedic ESWT procedures

I've Tried Other Things But They Didn't Help. How Do I Know ESWT Will?

Tendonitis sometimes resolves by itself or with the help of treatments such as strapping, physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medications, or cortisone injections. When the condition is new (usually less than six months) it is called acute tendonitis.

Acute tendonitis is an inflammation. All of the treatments used at this stage are meant to rest the area or deal with the inflammation. Those who do not get better in the “acute” phase have what is called chronic tendonosis. The difference between tendonosis and tendonitis is simple: Tendonitis is an inflammation. Tendonosis is degenerative or damaged tissue. You can use steroid injections repeatedly with no result if the problem has gone beyond inflammation. Surgery used to be the only option for tendonosis. ESWT treats tendonosis because ESWT forces the damaged tendon to heal.

What kind of recovery can patients expect?

ESWT forces the body to create new tissue cells in the damaged area. Expect gradual healing to take place over days, weeks or months. Though not typical, some have mild soreness or bruising after treatment. Some people experience no more pain from day one. Most will have noticeable to significant improvement by the thirteenth week. A second treatment after sixteen weeks may be necessary in approximately 20% of patients. As it took time to create the injury, healing also takes time. Total healing of the area can take up to one year.

The best thing about ESWT is that unlike surgery, patients avoid getting worse before getting better. There's no need to plan lengthy time off from work or life for painful post-procedure recovery.
