Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) uses acoustic pulses to treat certain musculoskeletal disorders. It is a well-studied and commonly used treatment modality for a variety of musculoskeletal conditions around the world. rESWT is used successfully for:
Plantar fasciopathy, Achilles tendinopathy, medial tibial stress syndrome (shin splints), greater trochanteric pain syndrome, etc.
Calcaneal tendinopathies & enthesopathies, fasciopathies, muscular pathologies, trigger points and spastic tissues.
While most people are aware of the benefits of strengthening their muscles for overall health and longevity, very few take into account the importance of also focusing on strength exercises for bone health. As just as muscles respond to differing stimuli and load, our bones too are the same!
Goals can be a powerful, yet simple tool to help keep you committed and on track when it comes to exercise or physical activity. We’ve all set them at some stage in our life, whether it’s to run a marathon, be able to get up and down from the floor with greater ease or loose a few kilos. And usually these goals get completed to varying degrees of success. However the difference between those who generally succeed and those who don’t is the type of goals your setting.
