Recorded live on Tuesdays at 8pm (UK time) on the Sports Therapy Association Facebook Page and also streamed live to YouTube, host Matt Phillips (creator of Runchatlive) brings guests from the Sports Therapy industry to answer YOUR questions and discuss topics chosen by YOU. Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) is currently creating a great deal of interest amongst both therapists and patients, with some sources suggesting success rate ranges from 60% to 80% in epicondylitis, plantar fasciitis, cuff tendinitis, trocanteritis and Achilles tendinopathy. In Ep.43 of the Sports Therapy Association Podcast, host Matt Phillips of Runchatlive talks with special guests Ove Indergaard (Clinical Director - Indergaard Physiotherapy) and Mike Grice (Education Director - Movement Therapy Education) to what extent this interest in Shockwave Therapy is warranted. What does the evidence say with regards to 60% to 80% success rate? What are the proposed mechanisms of action and how does shockwave therapy differ from traditional therapeutic ultrasound? NEWSFLASH! The fantastic reaction during the live recording of this episode means that we will be bringing you for the first time in the history of this podcast a PART TWO next week! This will include as requested details of how to check if Shockwave Therapy will suit you & your practice, how to get proper training, and options for equipment!
