Shoulder Pain – Laser or Shockwave Therapy

Have you been suffering for weeks, even months or years, from pain in one or both of your shoulders?

We possibly have the solution that could free you from your suffering in order to fully enjoy an active life!

We are, in most cases, able to help you relieve shoulder pain with a full range of care: from:

• Mobilization in osteopathy;
• Laser therapy for tendonitis, bursitis or capsulitis;
• The therapy by shockwave (or shock wave therapy) for calcifications (calcific bursitis or calcific tendonitis);
• Cortisone injections;
• Until the treatment by injection of stem cells.

All of these treatments are offered by experienced health care professionals who have dedicated their careers to constantly innovating in order to offer the most effective and safest treatments available.

In general, we use the therapy with laser for pain related to bursitis, tendonitis or capsulitis and shockwave for calcific tendonitis or calcific bursitis.

As part of our Big Fall Sale, we are offering a never-before-seen discount on ALL of your laser and shockwave treatments.

This promotion is valid for one new patient only. All laser treatments needed to treat your condition (ex. shoulder pain, bursitis, tendonitis, capsulitis, etc.), will be offered at the promotional price of $60.00 instead of the usual rate of $90.00 and those of shockwave at $100 instead of $140, as part of our "Great Fall Sale" that will be held until December 21, 2016. These treatments must be consecutive (in line with the recommendations and depending on your condition) and must not be interrupted for more than 2 weeks.

In the last few years, seven systematic literature reviews have highlighted the benefits of laser therapy

• BMJ LLLT for chronic non-specific low back painA systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials found "moderate quality of evidence" and "clinically important benefits" in the short term (2016). More details
• BMJ sports medicine journal, systematic review of surgical and conservative interventions for frozen shoulder found "strong evidence" for LLLT. (2010) More details
• The International Association for the Study of Pain (Global Task force on musculoskeletal pain) found "strong evidence" for Low Level Laser Therapy on myofascial pain syndrome. (2010) More details
• The BMJ clinical evidence recommendations for tennis elbow 2011 now include LLLT More details
• American Physical Therapy Association guidelines recommend LLLT for Achilles tendonitis (2010) More details
• Lancet systematic review: "LLLT reduces pain immediately after treatment in acute neck pain and up to 22 weeks after completion of treatment in patients with chronic neck pain". (2009) More details
• World Health Organisation (Bone and Joint Task Force) for neck pain Low Level Laser Therapy "more effective than no treatment, sham, or alternative interventions" (2008) More details

Scientific literature shows that shockwave therapy improves the symptoms of calcific tendonitis, resulting in less pain and better joint mobility:

Radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy in the treatment of shoulder calcific tendinitis. Avancini-Dobrovid et al. Coll Antropol, Sept 2011. More details

• Clinical trial (no randomisation or control group)
• 30 patients with calcific shoulder tendinitis received ESWT once a week for max 3-5 weeks.
• There was significant improvement of pain, shoulder ROM and muscle strengthwhich was maintained at 6 months follow-up.
• X-rays shown significant reduction of calcifications size.
• The authors conclude radial ESWT is an effective treatment modality for calcific shoulder tendinitis producing good short and long term results.

Radial extracorporeal shock-wave therapy in rotator cuff calcific tendinosis. Mangone et al. Clin Cas Min Bone Metabol, May 2010. More details

• Observational study.
• 62 patients received radial shockwave therapy (RESWT) or high power laser therapy (HPLT).
• The results suggest that the use of RESWT in the treatment of rotator cuff calcifying tendinosis offers remarkable advantages compared with HPLT with regard to improvement of pain and shoulder function.
• ESWT treatment may be a valuable treatment method of this pathology from a cost benefit point of view as well, as it showed to produce quick return of joint functionality with a limited number of applications
• The authors conclude that RESWT is the method of choice for calcific rotator cuff tendinitis.

Radial shockwave therapy in calcifying tendinitis of the rotator cuff-a prospective study (article in German). Magosh et al, Zeit Orthop Unfall Chir, 2003. More details

• Prospective study.
• 35 patients who suffered from calcifying rotator cuff tendinitis for a mean of 28 months received 3 low energy RSWT treatments.
• RSWT treatment produced significant improvement of pain and shoulder functionwithin the first 4 weeks. This improvement persisted throughout the 12 months follow-up. Up to 81% of patients were pain-free after 1 year, and 19% had pain relief.
• RX suggested that RSWT promotes resorption of the calcific deposit.
