Studies on the Effectiveness of Radial Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy

3 clinical trials demonstrating the efficacy of radial shock wave therapy

Published on 06/18/2022

As the inventor of radial shock waves, EMS® the clinical research closely to monitor the actual therapeutic effect of their device solutions. That so many publications demonstrate the efficiency and results that can only be achieved with the high energy output of the DolorClast®can be achieved with devices, speaks for EMS technology®. Because other devices with a lower energy flux density fail to achieve the same clinical results.

In the following, we would like to introduce you to three clinical studies recently published by EMS® have been published and demonstrate the effectiveness of radial shockwave therapy in the treatment of these widespread clinical pictures:

  • lateral epicondylitis
  • medial tibial stress syndrome
  • Achilles tendinopathy

Radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy for lateral epicondylitis

This study shows that radial shockwave therapy in combination with physical therapy provides better and faster pain relief, increased grip strength, functional improvement, and healing of tendon tears compared to explicit physical therapy applications alone.

Improved results in medial tibial stress syndrome

In this pragmatic study, the researchers show that the treatment group achieved better results across all selected scales and had a significantly higher probability of returning to high-level sports.

Why radial shockwave therapy is suitable for the treatment of Achilles tendinopathy

In this study, the researchers found that the application of radial shock wave therapy (RSWT) supports the healing process in chronic insertional Achilles tendinopathy. Read the full summary.
