Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy

ESWT - Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy . Having a shock wave of four bars to an already acking achilles tendon (tendonitis) does not neceserally strike you as a very good idea, but I mean to tell you. It works! (And hurts a little)

The discovery of the beneficial effects of ESWT came as German researchers were trying to determine what type of high-pressure pulses could be sent through the body to disintegrate kidney stones without causing harm to surrounding tissue. In laboratory animals and humans, it was discovered (with some surprise) that surrounding tissue would often heal back stronger.

If you have a chronic achilles tendonitis, tennis elbow etc. you should defiantly give this a shot. I feel much better after only one session.
