Shock Wave Therapy for Calcific Tendinitis

Calcific tendinitis (CT) shoulder is a self-limiting disorder characterized by deposition of calcium salts in rotator cuff muscles.
Symptoms: pain, activity restriction
Conventional Treatment protocols include: physio modalities, deep friction massage, iontophoresis, local and systemic non- inflammatory, needle irrigation-aspiration of calcium deposit and subacromial steroid injection
Recent research supports and documents effect of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy as a minimally invasive effective treatment of calcific tendinitis prior to deciding on surgery.
A 6 month follow up study proved SWT increases shoulder function, reduces pain, and is effective in dissolving calcifications and these results were maintained over the following 6 months.
  • If you have been experiencing shoulder pain, and your type of job involvesrepetitive use of hand or desk job using the keyboard, you may be suffering from tendonitis. Call us to talk to one of our Physiotherapist to discuss the suitability of Shockwave Therapy.
