Tendinopathy Treatment
Tendinopathy Treatment
Shockwave therapy, also known as extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT), is a non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic waves to stimulate the body’s natural healing process. It can be effective in relieving pain and promoting healing of injured tendons, ligaments, and other soft tissues.
How it works
During shockwave therapy, a handheld device is used to deliver pulsating waves of energy to the injured area. The shockwaves are thought to work in several ways, including:
- Increasing blood flow to the injured tissue
- Breaking down scar tissue
- Stimulating the growth of new blood vessels and nerve cells
- Reducing inflammation
Shockwave therapy is typically performed on an outpatient basis. The treatment takes about 10-15 minutes, and most people require 3-6 sessions spaced a week or two apart.
Benefits of shockwave therapy for Tendinopathy
Shockwave therapy is a safe and effective treatment for tendinopathy. It has been shown to be effective in reducing pain and improving function in people with a variety of tendon conditions, including:
- Achilles tendinitis
- Plantar fasciitis
- Tennis elbow
- Golfer's elbow
- Patellar tendinitis (jumper's knee)
Potential side effects
Shockwave therapy is generally well-tolerated, but it can cause some temporary side effects, such as:
- Pain or bruising at the treatment site
- Redness or swelling
- Numbness or tingling
