Shock wave therapy

During the shock wave therapy energy is being led by means of a specific device into the pathologically-changed tendon tissue leading to a significant improvement of the medical conditions in particular in the case of diseases such as

Tennis ellbow

Calcific tendinitis of the shoulder

Heel spur

Irritation of the Achilles tendon

The procedure of the shock wave therapy now applied in surgical orthopaedics has been adopted from urology where it has been used for some time for the treatment of kidney stones.

Irritation of the tendon tissue, which often stems from overstressing, often goes along with calcifications of the tendon tissue which react well to the shock-wave. SPORTHOMEDIC’s experience with this procedure is very positive: with regard to the calcific tendinitis of the shoulder and the heel spur the success rate of this method which is entirely free of side-effects amounts to more than 80%.
