It may be considered as an adjunct to rehabilitation for selected persistent tendon and heel-pain presentations. It is not a universal treatment and no outcome can be guaranteed. **Also searched as:** shockwave treatment Faridabad · shockwave therapy near me · ESWT therapy Faridabad · extracorporeal shockwave therapy Faridabad · shock wave treatment NIT Faridabad ## Quick answer Shockwave treatment uses externally generated mechanical pressure waves delivered through an applicator to a clinically assessed area. The physiotherapist first checks the likely diagnosis, symptom duration, medical history, contraindications and previous treatment. When suitable, shockwave is normally combined with graded exercise, load management and a home programme instead of being used as a stand-alone cure. ## Problems considered for shockwave assessment The clinic may assess shockwave suitability for: - persistent plantar heel pain or plantar fasciopathy - selected Achilles, patellar, tennis-elbow or golfer's-elbow tendinopathy - selected calcific shoulder tendinopathy - some other persistent musculoskeletal presentations when examination supports its use Similar symptoms can have different causes. A page or search phrase cannot confirm that shockwave is appropriate. Acute trauma, suspected fracture, neurological symptoms, infection or other red flags may require a different pathway or medical referral. ## What happens at an appointment 1. The clinician discusses symptoms, health history, medication and previous treatment. 2. Movement, strength, function and the painful area are assessed. 3. The clinician explains reasonable options, possible discomfort, uncertainty in expected benefit, alternatives and any reason not to proceed. 4. If clinically suitable and consented to, the device is applied to the selected area using individually adjusted settings. 5. The treatment is linked to an active rehabilitation plan and reviewed against functional goals. Session count, intensity and review timing vary by diagnosis, irritability, response and goals. The clinic does not promise a fixed number of sessions or a universal success rate before assessment. ## Safety and medical coordination Shockwave can be uncomfortable and temporary soreness can occur. Suitability requires individual screening. Tell the clinician about pregnancy, blood-thinning medication or bleeding disorders, implanted devices, recent surgery, injections, cancer, infection, open wounds, altered sensation or any significant medical condition. Do not stop prescribed medicine unless the prescribing clinician advises it. The UK National Institute for Health and Care Excellence reports no major safety concerns for extracorporeal shockwave therapy for refractory plantar fasciitis, while noting that evidence of efficacy is inconsistent and recommending clear explanation, consent and outcome monitoring. NICE also has procedure guidance for calcific shoulder tendinopathy. These sources inform discussion; they do not replace individual assessment. ## Shockwave therapy versus other therapies Shockwave, therapeutic ultrasound, TENS, interferential therapy, laser therapy, dry needling, cupping and manual therapy are different interventions. A relevant keyword does not make a modality necessary. Selection depends on the examination, patient preference, current evidence and safety.
