What are shock waves?
Shock waves are high-energy, audible sound waves. They are characterised by a rapid increase in pressure and a short
pulse length. They occur in our everyday lives, for example, when aircraft break the sound barrier. Today, doctors use
shock wave therapy to treat common orthopaedic medical conditions such as frozen shoulder, tennis elbow, achillodynia,
patellar tip syndrome and heel pain in plantar fasciitis. Depending on the indication, focused or radial shock waves
(or both) are used.
Indications for Shockwave Therapy Shockwave therapy is primarily used in the treatment of common musculoskeletal conditions.
These include: Upper and lower extremity tendinopathies Greater trochanteric pain syndrome Medial tibial stress syndrome
Patellar tendinopathy Plantar fasciopathy. Adhesive capsulitis Non-union of long bone fracture Avascular necrosis of femoral
head Osteoarthritis of the knee There is no standardized ESWT protocol for the treatment of musculoskeletal conditions.
Magnetic therapy
is delivered via a handheld or freestanding applicator that does not touch the patient's body.
Magnetic therapy
uses
electromagnetic transduction to generate a magnetic field in a high-speed generator that emits impulses at a frequency of
3 Hz. Each impulse is released in nanoseconds, eliciting an electrophysical reaction without increasing the temperature
of the treated tissues.
Magnetic therapy
is relatively painless, with minimal discomfort and no known negative side effects. The patient
remains fully clothed while receiving treatment, and the applicator does not touch the skin.
Magnetic therapy
is an
outpatient procedure that takes between 5-20 minutes, depending on the condition being treated.
