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.
