Shockwave therapy for knee pain is a very effective and efficient way to help manage painful knee symptoms. Shockwave therapy delivers high energy sounds waves into the injured tissues which causes an inflammatory response from the body. This inflammation produced by the body via the shockwaves helps the injured area regenerate, and increases the formation of blood vessels (creates new capillaries). This improvement in blood flow to the area allows for more oxygen, nutrients, etc. to be delivered to the injured area.
Shockwave therapy also has an analgesic effect. The acoustic waves disperse pain mediating neurotransmitters in the area. This means that the pain signals in the nerves are not able to send the signal (Pain!) to our spinal cord/brain. With less pain, we can then challenge the injured area more effectively with rehab exercises which will ultimately strengthen and bolster the injured area.
With all shockwave therapy, we utilize loading exercises which result in further strengthening of the injured area which results in further improvement in the injured structures. For knee pain, it is important to load the quadriceps tendon, patellar tendon, and other muscles/tendons that surround the knee.
Knee pain can be due to many different causes. Shockwave therapy for patellar tendinopathy or shockwave therapy for patellar tendinitis is one of the most effective treatment options. Patellar tendon injuries are often long standing, have poor blood supply and the tendon is usually weakened to a degree. Shockwave for patellar tendinitis helps promote further blood flow, and beneficial inflammation to the area while the loading exercises strengthen and support the tendon to make the pain go away permanently.
