| Treatment for heel spurs and tennis elbow I have always been plagued by tennis elbow. It has been a painful and very limiting condition for years. Tried numerous treatments and as a whole none worked. Recently while at a convention one of the vendors treated me with shock wave therapy. The results have been amazing. No pain, normal range of motion, pretty much like I never had a problem. Shock wave (know as ESWT) is a spin off of lithotripsy technology using electromagnetic energy to break down adhesions and scar tissue. Sadly ESWT is not yet approved by the FDA (my convention was in Spain) but their are a few podiatrist and veterinarian which have the machine in the USA. I can't say enough good things about this therapy. If you have these problems try to find someone with these units. |
