Radial Shockwave Therapy (RSW) has been used to treat problems such as tennis/golfers elbow, plantar fasciitis, achilles tendinopathy, patella tendinopathy, shin splints and tendinopathy of the rotator cuff (with or without calcification), iliotibial band friction syndrome or to assist with pain management in conditions such as chronic low back pain. Radial shockwaves are high-energy soundwaves transmitted from a probe held against and passing through the skin and spreading outwards into the underlying tissues. This is believed to induce increased blood flow and metabolic activity around the site of pain accelerating the healing process. We are very excited to be able to offer this cutting edge treatment technology at Korumburra Sports & Spinal Clinic for treatment of pain related to a number of chronic soft tissue conditions.
