Get ready for EMTT #8: Clinical studies, combining EMTT & ESWT
Placebo-controlled studies published in 2017 & 2018 show the huge potential of EMTT – both as a stand-alone therapy and as a supplement to focused shock wave therapy (ESWT). While ESWT uses high energy acoustic effects on a local treatment area, EMTT uses high energy electromagnetic effects on a regional treatment area. ESWT & EMTT have an additive profile and thus also work great in combination or as parts of a multimodal therapy approach.
