Work therapy:

A shockwave is defined as a wave with a rapid increase of pressure within a very short time

and then having a gradual decrease of pressure with a small negative pressure phase.

Shockwave is aimed at the affected areas that are the source of chronic pain. The influence

of the shockwaves causes to the dissolution of calcium deposits and leads to better

vascularization. The after-effect is relief from the pain.

New Blood Vessel Formation

Nutrient blood flow is necessary to start and maintain the repair processes of damaged tissue structure. The application of acoustic waves creates capillary microruptures in tendon and bone. Due to microruptures the expression of growth factors such as eNOS, VEGF, PCNS and BMP is significantly increased.

As a result of these processes arterioles are remodeled, stimulated to grow and new ones are formed. The new blood vessels improve blood supply and oxygenation of the treated area and support faster healing of both the tendon and the bone.

Are There Any Side Effects?

ESWT is not known to cause any significant adverse effects. However, potential complications are pain and hypersensitivity at the site of treatment, which usually resolve very quickly.

What Is The Procedure Like?

A hand-held probe is placed over the area of greatest tenderness and the shockwaves are delivered over a duration of approximately 20 minutes. Occasionally, mild transient discomfort may be felt at the treatment site, thus if necessary, topical local anaesthetic cream may be applied prior to treatment.

How Many Sessions Are Required?

Patients usually require 5 to 6 weekly sessions and overall, the healing response takes 6 to 8 weeks. Between treatments, patients are able to perform their usual daily activities.
