How safe and effective is Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy?

Shock Wave Therapy” or simply "ESWT" is an FDA approved "non-invasive or no incision" treatment for both “plantar fasciitis, commonly associated with heel spurs” and “lateral epicondylitis or tennis elbow”. ESWT is also used to successfully treat achilles tendons, knees and shoulders. Shockwave therapy has a success rate of approximately 85%, which is comparable to its invasive counter parts. However, ESWT is perferable in the long run because of the greatly reduced risk of scarring or infection.
