Shock wave therapy has emerged as a possible treatment option for patients with chronic tendon problems. The procedure uses either pressurized air or electromagnetic pulses to deliver shock waves to the body to help treat a variety of chronic disorders, including: Erectile Dysfunction, Plantar fasciitis, Joint pain, injury sprains, breaks, etc.
