How Does Acoustic Wave Therapy Work? Acoustic waves with high energy peak used in this method of treatment interact with tissue, causing accelerated tissue repair and cell growth, analgesia, and mobility restoration. The process of Acoustic Wave Therapy includes: • New Blood Vessel Formation - Nutrient blood flow is necessary to start and maintain the repair processes of damaged tissue. The application of acoustic waves creates capillary micro-ruptures in tendon and bone. • Reversal of Chronic Inflammation - Mast cells are one of the key components of the inflammatory process. Their activity may be increased by using pervasive acoustic waves. • Stimulation of Collagen Production - The production of a sufficient amount of collagen is
a necessary precondition for the repair processes of the damaged myoskeletal and ligamentous structures. Acoustic Wave Therapy accelerates procollagen synthesis. • Dissolution of Calcified Fibroblasts - Calcium build-up is most often the result of micro-tears or other trauma to a tendon. Acoustic waves break up the existing calcifications. • Dispersion of Pain Mediator “Substance P” - Substance P is a neurotransmitter that mediates pain information through the C-fibers. This neuropeptide is generally associated with intense, persistent, and chronic pain. • Release of Trigger Points - Trigger points are the principal cause of pain in the back, neck, shoulder, and limbs. Delivered acoustic energy unblocks the calcium pump and thus reverses the metabolic crisis in the myofilaments and releases the trigger points.

Acoustic Wave Therapy can be used to treat a wide variety of musculoskeletal conditions, in particular, those involving areas where major connective tissue attaches to bone. Common sites that can be successfully treated are: • Jumper’s Knee is an inflammation or injury of the patellar tendon felt as pain, tenderness, and functional deficit. This condition may interfere with or even end your sporting career, regardless of age, and is difficult to treat. • Shoulder Pain can be caused by e.g. calcifications, impingement syndrome, or frozen shoulder, and it can feel like a dull to severe pain that limits your daily life. • Tennis Elbow is a frequent condition occurring in up to 10% of the general population. Unfortunately, the conservative treatment of epicondylitis is lengthy (rest), includes medication (pain killers, steroid injections), and often needs repetition. AcousticWave Therapy on the other hand offers a rather prompt pain relief and cure with efficiency of over 70% in just a maximum of 5 treatments. • A calcium deposit on the underside of the heel bone (Heel Spur) is closely associated with scarring or inflammation of the plantar fascia (PlantarFasciitis) .Eitherofthe indicationscan limityourdailyactivities. What Conditions Can Be Treated?
• Insertional Pain in the muscles typically occurs due to repetitive or prolonged activities, placing strain on a particular tendon. • Cumulated microtraumas from repetitive overloading can result in Chronic Tendinopathy (tendinitis or tendinosis). Tendinopathies at various areas of the body are a widespread diagnosis of both the active persons and the general population. • Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome typically occurs due to activities placing large amounts of stress through the tibialis anterior muscle. These activities may include fast walking or running (especially up or downhill or on hard or uneven surfaces) or a sporting activity (such as kicking sports). You are usually restricted from such activities for prolonged periods of time. • Calcifying Tendinitis is a chronic pain disorder that is characterized by calcifications in rotator cuff tendons. Such condition causes pain and range of motion limitations. • With age and use, the cartilage can wear down or become damaged. Muscles and tendons in the hip can get overused. The hip bone itself can be fractured during a fall or other injury. Any of these conditions can lead to Hip Pain and damage in the area.

DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease or line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside. In a mixing bowl stir together mashed banana, pumpkin, eggs, peanut butter, coconut oil, vanilla and maple syrup until well combined. Add in oats, oat flour, almond meal, baking powder, baking soda, salt, Vietnamese cinnamon, allspice, chocolate chips and dried fruit; stir to combine. Refrigerate for 5 minutes to harden. Drop cookies by spoonfuls on prepared baking sheet. They won’t expand much, so feel free to press them down slightly, and make them as uniform as possible to ensure even baking. Bake for about 12 minutes until lightly browned.
INGREDIENTS
• 1 ripe banana, mashed • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree • 2 large eggs • 1/2 cup peanut butter • 3 tbsp coconut oil, melted • 2 tsp vanilla extract • 3 tbsp maple syrup • 1 1/2 cups gluten-free rolled oats • 1/2 cup oat flour, ground • 1/2 cup almond meal
• 1/2 tsp baking powder • 1/2 tsp baking soda • 1/8 tsp salt • 2 tsp Vietnamese Cinnamon (5% Oil) • 1/4 tsp Frontier allspice • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips • 1/2 cup dried cranberries & cherries
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF ACOUSTIC WAVE THERAPY?
1.Locating the Area to Be Treated - The area to be treated is located using palpation in order to deliver the therapy precisely. 2.Applying Gel - Sufficient amount of gel is applied to the area located in step 1. Use of gel is necessary to transfer the acoustic waves efficiently and smoothly. 3.Conducting the Therapy - The applicator is slightly pushed against the area to be treated and the start button is pressed. If you are suffering from pain and would like to see if you are a candidate for Acoustic Wave Therapy, contact Fyzical Arkansas at (479) 855-9348 to schedule an appointment.
