Research data have shown that shockwaves have very good results in the following musculoskeletal pathologies:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Shoulder tendinopathy (with or without calsification)<\/li><li>Achilles tendinopathy<\/li><li>Bursitis of the trochanter at the hip<\/li><li>Lateral epicodylitis \u2013 Tennis Elbow<\/li><li>Patelar tendinopathy at the knee<\/li><li>Heel spur and plantar fasciitis<\/li><li>Morton\u2019s syndrome at the foot<\/li><li>Shin splints<\/li><li>Trigger points and painful muscle contractions<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The shockwave treatment is not painful but to gain the desirable effects the patient may feel a small discomfort at the treated site which resolves immediately after the application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The positive results are obvious from the first appointment as the patient will feel and move better. Usually shockwave therapy is part of a wider physiotherapy treatment plan that can include manual therapy, massage and exercise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"block-aea6f5-3e\"
