No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of the research is to investigate the effect of Ekstracorpereal shock wave treatment (ESWT) on muscle strength, flexibility and architecture of the lower extremity tendinopathies when applied using the frequencies specified in the literature with min and max frequency frequencies.

Our hypothesis as researchers is ESWT treatment has an effect on muscle strength, flexibility and muscle architecture.

Conditions

  • Tendinopathy

Interventions

OTHER

Extracorporeal shockwave theraphy for hamstring tendinopathy

For hamstring tendinopathy; a total of 2000 impulses will be done. We will apply twice a week and 5 times in total.

OTHER

Extracorporeal shockwave theraphy for quadriceps tendinopathy

Energy flux density will be 0.58mJ/mm2 (2 bar) with 2000 impulses. We will perform twice a week, 5 times in total.

OTHER

Extracorporeal shockwave theraphy for achilles tendinopathy

Each session consisted of 2400 impulses will be administered with an energy flux density ranged from 0.17 to 0.25 mJ/mm2 (1.7-2.5 bar). We will perform once a week, 3 times in total.
