Radial shockwave therapy (RSWT) is a non-invasive treatment modality that involves the use of low-energy shockwaves, which are high-pressure acoustic waves that are transmitted through the skin to the affected area. The waves are generated by a device that is held against the skin, and the treatment is performed on an outpatient basis.
Effective In Treating Chronic Pain
One of the main benefits of RSWT is its effectiveness in treating chronic pain. Chronic pain can be challenging to manage and can negatively impact a patient’s quality of life. RSWT has been shown to be effective in treating chronic conditions such as plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, and tennis elbow. The shockwaves stimulate the body’s natural healing process by increasing blood flow to the affected area, promoting tissue regeneration, and reducing inflammation. This leads to a reduction in pain and an improvement in function.
Non-Invasive Treatment Option
Another positive aspect of RSWT is that it is a non-invasive treatment option. Unlike surgical procedures, RSWT does not require incisions, anesthesia, or a lengthy recovery period. Patients can resume their normal activities immediately after the procedure. This makes it a suitable option for patients who are not candidates for surgery or who want to avoid invasive treatments.
Safe Treatment Option
RSWT is a safe treatment option with minimal side effects. The most common side effect is mild discomfort during the procedure, which typically subsides quickly. Some patients may experience mild bruising or swelling, but these symptoms are temporary and typically resolve within a few days.
In addition to its effectiveness in treating musculoskeletal conditions, RSWT has also been shown to be effective in treating certain urological conditions. It has been used to treat conditions such as Peyronie’s disease, which is a condition that causes curvature of the penis, and erectile dysfunction. RSWT can improve blood flow to the affected area, leading to an improvement in symptoms.
Cost Effective Treatment For Patients
RSWT is also a cost-effective treatment option. In comparison to surgery, which can be expensive and require lengthy hospital stays, RSWT is relatively inexpensive and can be performed on an outpatient basis. This makes it a viable option for patients who are uninsured or underinsured.
