Low back pain is a disease that frequently occurs in daily life. Apart from headache, it is the most common pain experienced by humans. Approximately 80% of people in the entire population experience low back pain at least once during their lives.  

Degenerative Knee Arthritis is characterized by pain and functional disorders, and it limits movements commonly used in daily life, such as standing up from a chair, standing comfortably, walking, and descending stairs. SWT can significantly reduce knee pain.

Frozen Shoulder has always been considered  important because of the impact on the quality-of-life and long period of illness. Therefore, the use of noninvasive and safe techniques that can speed up the healing process of the disease is important. 

The prevalence of shoulder complaints ranges from 16 to 34% in the general population and increases with advancing age. Rotator cuff disease is 9.7% in patients younger than 20 years and 62% in patients older than 80 years of age. 

Knee Osteoarthritis (KOA) is a major cause leading to chronic bone and muscle pain. Knee osteoarthritis is the most common joint lesion, which is also the major cause resulting in chronic bone and muscle pain, as well as disability. 

Knee Tendinopathies, soft tissue disorders (KSTDs) are common problems that develop from sports-induced tendon and ligament injuries in athletes, and they originate from overuse conditions or traumatic injuries in nonathletes. 

Plantar Fasciitis is one of the most common causes of foot pain in adults, with the peak incidence occurs between ages 40 and 60 years in the general population. 

Insertional Achilles tendinopathy (IAT) is a common cause of posterior heel pain that occurs at the insertion of the Achilles tendon onto the calcaneus.  IATs may cause considerable morbidity and are difficult to manage, and they most commonly affect active adults aged between 30 and 60 years.  

 Lateral epicondylitis, or “Tennis Elbow,” is an inflammation of the tendons that join the forearm muscles on the outside of the elbow. Medial epicondylitis, or “Golfer's Elbow,” is an inflammation of the tendons that attach your forearm muscles to the inside of the bone at your elbow. 

Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) refers to a clinical condition with pain and tenderness at or around greater trochanter, which can radiate to the lateral aspect of the hip or thigh.

Extracorporeal shock wave therapy is superior to other treatments in terms of alleviating the pain intensity and pressure pain threshold of patients with Myofascial Pain Syndrome, and Fibromyalgia. 

Radial extracorporeal shockwave therapy was found to be effective in reducing pain and increasing quality of life, bringing extra vitality and emotional comfort to the patient. It was found that this physiotherapy is safe and well-tolerated by patients with Idiopathic Scoliosis. 

Hypertrophic Burn Scars often lead to functional impairment in patients due to the loss of elasticity in the scar tissue. Applying low-intensity shock wave therapy could prevent pathological development of the scar.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome occurs when the median nerve, which runs down your arm into your hand, gets compressed at the wrist.  The median nerve controls sensation in your palm, thumb and fingers, and can cause pain and numbness. Shockwave therapy has become a desirable treatment option in recent years.

Temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) are clinical conditions that affect the masticatory musculature, temporomandibular joint (TMJ). The common symptoms of TMD include clicking of the joint, limited mouth opening, and muscle with joint pain. Shockwave Therapy reduces pain and improves jaw function.

Acoustic Wave Therapy to Treat Cellulite reduces existing metabolic regulation disorders and stimulates fat breakdown in cells. It enhances the elasticity of connective tissue and improves skin tone, thus decreasing the visible signs of cellulite and the appearance of dimples and bumps.
