Biological effect of Shock Wave Therapy on Tendon.
Research Shows that Shock Wave Therapy significantly stimulated the growth of neovascularization associated with increased expressions of angiogenic growth indicators in tendon, bone and tendon-bone interface. Neovascularization may play a role in the improvement of blood supply and healing of tendon. There is a close relationship between the decrease of substance P release and the clinically known treatment pain, with consecutive pain reduction in the shockwave treatment of tendon insertion diseases.
