What Conditions Can Be Treated with Radio Shockwave Therapy?
Radio Shockwave Therapy, also known as Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT), can treat a variety of musculoskeletal conditions, particularly those involving chronic pain and soft tissue injuries. One of the most common conditions treated with this therapy is plantar fasciitis, where the shockwaves help to reduce inflammation and stimulate healing in the plantar fascia. Achilles tendonitis, characterized by inflammation of the Achilles tendon, is another condition effectively managed with shockwave therapy. The treatment helps to break down scar tissue, improve blood flow, and promote tendon healing.
Other conditions that can benefit from Radio Shockwave Therapy include tennis elbow, which involves inflammation of the tendons on the outside of the elbow, and calcific shoulder tendonitis, where calcium deposits form in the shoulder tendons causing pain and restricted movement. Shockwave therapy is also used for treating patellar tendonitis (jumper's knee), medial tibial stress syndrome (shin splints), and trigger points in muscles. By delivering high-energy sound waves to the affected area, the therapy promotes tissue regeneration, reduces pain, and enhances the overall healing process, offering a non-invasive alternative to surgery.
