Radial Shockwave Therapy (RSWT) is a non-invasive treatment method that uses high-energy sound waves to stimulate healing in targeted musculoskeletal tissues. It’s particularly effective for chronic conditions that have not responded to traditional therapies.
How RSWT Works:
-
Mechanical Stimulation: The therapy delivers acoustic waves to the affected area, promoting increased blood flow and metabolic activity.
-
Pain Reduction: RSWT can help diminish pain by disrupting pain pathways and promoting the release of endorphins.
-
Tissue Regeneration: The treatment encourages the repair of tendons, ligaments, and other soft tissues.
Common Conditions Treated with RSWT:
-
Plantar Fasciitis
-
Tennis Elbow
-
Calcific Shoulder Tendinitis
-
Patellar Tendinopathy
-
Achilles Tendinopathy
