Rotator Cuff Tears And Tendinopathy AWT Acoustic Wave Therapy Device

What is Rotator cuff tears and tendinopathy?
The rotator cuff is a group of muscles that attach via tendons to the head of the upper arm bone (the humerus). The function of the cuff is to center the head of the humerus in the socket and move the arm. These tendons are in a constant state of rebuilding and breaking down. When the rate of breaking down exceeds the ability of the tendon to rebuild, micro tears occur causing pain and inflammation. This inflammation is known as tendonitis. In the extreme case, this inflammation can result in the failure of the tendon known as a rotator cuff tear. Repetitive overhead activity or heavy lifting can irritate or weaken the tendon. Sometimes this can also lead to a gradual tear in the rotator cuff tendon making it difficult to raise or rotate your arm. Acute tears can also happen with a sudden force that overwhelms the tendon such as a shoulder dislocation. This results in an immediate inability to raise or rotate the arm.

What is Miniwave Shockwave Therapy?
Miniwave Shockwave Therapy is a method of therapy that uses a device to send acoustic waves of high energy pulses into an injury affected area on a person's body. The device works by creating a microtrauma to the affected area, thus stimulating blood flow and thereby promoting tissue healing. In chronic pain, these Shockwaves create a new inflammatory process, which then kick starts the brain to react by sending the necessary nutrients to promote healing.

Benefits of Miniwave Shockwave Therapy include:

1. Fast pain relief
2. Mobility restoration
3. Accelerated tissue repair and cell growth
4. Non-surgical
5. Non-invasive

Most patients will notice a significant improvement in their pain symptoms & recovery within 3-4 sessions & a full treatment course is approximately 12 sessions. Your Physiotherapist will likely combine this with other modalities of treatment to give you the best outcome.

What does Miniwave Shockwave Therapy feel like?
People may experience mild discomfort during the treatment. As the area becomes desensitized, the initial discomfort typically fades as it is being treated.

How is the Shockwave treatment performed?
The treatment is noninvasive. First, a gel is applied to the treatment area. Second, an applicator is applied and manipulated to release pressure waves over the affected area. Treatment sessions typically last 5 minutes, but this can vary depending on the area(s) and condition being treated.

What type of results are expected?
Beneficial effects are often experienced after only one or two treatments, and many patients report immediate relief. The technology has a 91% success rate as per clinical studies.

What are the possible side effects?
Treatment with Shockwave technology has virtually no side effects. In some cases, patients may experience minor discomfort for a few days. Patients can return to work after treatments and in most all cases there is no downtime.

Who is a candidate for Shockwave therapy?
Most people are excellent candidates for Shockwave treatment however patients who are pregnant, have a pacemaker or current cancer are not suitable for treatment with Shockwave Technology.
