Open to all MSK practitioners
This small-group seminar will present and discuss the integration of ESWT to Manual Medicine as a modality for helping to manage common musculoskeletal disorders. As well as discussing the evidence for ESWT in treating common tendinopathies and plantar fasciopathy, we will look at how it is optimally integrated with manual and exercise interventions to optimise its efficacy. There will be a strong practical element to enable the delegate to gain experience in the manual skills of applying ESWT.
