Study review comparing shockwave therapy versus a modified physical therapy protocol for tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis).
The study evaluated pain levels and reported symptoms at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. The shockwave therapy group did well during the course of the study, and very importantly at the 12 month follow up.
If a person does not have a flare up by 6 or 12 months, then it is safe to say treatment is very effective. I think the study showed shockwave therapy does work for tennis elbow. It also shows a poor conservative therapy trial is not of much value.
We incorporate shockwave therapy into all tennis elbow treatments, but we do even more to increase healing and outcomes. Adding deep tissue laser, Graston Technique, and other manual therapy techniques enhance the soft tissue repair. Combining these treatments with proper stretching and exercises further improves short and long term healing.
Get great treatment for your soft tissue injuries and avoid chronic tendon and ligament pain.
