What is Shockwave Therapy for Patellar Tendinitis?

Jumper's knee and patellar tendinitis are often accompanied by knee pain, swelling, and stiffness. If left untreated, the condition can lead to tears in your tendon. Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) treatment at LaSara Medical Group offers a safe, non-invasive surgery alternative for those looking to relieve knee pain and restore mobility.

Shockwave therapy uses shockwaves to generate a single burst of energy which triggers the body's natural healing process. Once administered, shockwave therapy also helps the body jump start its regenerative and reparative processes, alleviating pain and inflammation, and providing long-lasting results.
