Overview

Extracorporeal shockwave therapy is a novel approach used for treatment of various disorders of musculoskeletal system. Its application range is very wide and includes tendinopathies, plantar fasciitis, degenerative recalcitrant processes /heel spur, calcifying tendonitis of rotator cuff/ and bone non-unions in adults. In this review, authors describe physical aspect of shockwave therapy, its brief history, methods of use, indications, contraindications and suggested application procedures for certain musculoskeletal system disorders.

Key words:
shockwave, biological principles, musculoskeletal system, therapeutic schedules
