Pain To The Knee, Ilotibial Band Syndrome
Plantar Fasciitis, Achilles Tendonitis
Pain limiting you from running or walking? Radial Pressure Wave Therapy produces a sound wave, focused into your body, at a specific frequency and intensity to stimulate new blood vessel growth, cellular regeneration, and a trigger of the healing part of your immune response. Conditions where the healing has slowed, chronic pain that has lasted a few months, and inflammation and swelling that has not resolved, are perfect for Radial Pressure Wave Therapy (R-PWT) as a treatment option.
Radial Pressure Wave Therapy is perfect for knee pain. The structures of the front of the knee are very superficial and R-PWT has a better effectiveness in tissues less than 2 inches and is even more focused closer to the skin.
Iliotibial Pain to the outside of the knee and thigh can persist and focused treatment with R-PWT and restoring normal motion and mechanics is the best way to get rid of this syndrome.
If you have tried other treatments but your pain persists, or returns, your healing process might be stalled and need a 'boost'. Steroids reduce inflammation but can delay healing. You can try PRP injections or other injectables guided by x-ray imaging to try and affect healing.
OR
you can try a painless therapy that is FDA approved to treat chronic pain in the foot like Plantar Fasciitis.
Long term effectiveness of R-PWT is excellent as it stimulates regeneration of tissue and healing, compared to therapies that temporarily reduce pain and inflammation. Check out this link! Hamstrings Strain and Shockwave
