What is ESWT in Heel Spur?

Heel spurs are a common complaint of many people and seriously affect mobility. Robotic Rehabilitation Center offers an innovative method for patients struggling with this disorder: Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT). In this study, we will examine in detail the role of ESWT in the treatment of heel spurs, the application process and post-treatment expectations.

ESWT is a very effective method, especially in the treatment of chronic pain, and is increasingly preferred in the world of physiotherapy. In the treatment of heel spurs, ESWT aims to reduce pain and inflammation by stimulating the natural healing process of the tissue. High-energy shock waves focus on the area of the heel causing pain, helping repair damaged tissues to provide lasting relief.

Treatment Process

Before starting the ESWT treatment applied at the Robotic Rehabilitation Center, the diagnosis of heel spur is confirmed by detailed examination of the patient and necessary medical imaging methods. A treatment plan specific to the patient's needs is prepared and shock wave therapy is applied in line with this plan. ESWT sessions are usually scheduled weekly and each treatment session lasts an average of 15-20 minutes.

During treatment, patients may usually experience mild discomfort. However, it is important to note that ESWT is a painless procedure and most patients can easily tolerate the treatment. At every stage of the treatment process, the Robotic Rehabilitation Center's experienced and certified experts maintain the highest standards for the patient's comfort and safety.

Expectations

As for what patients can expect after ESWT; The effects of the treatment usually begin to be felt after the first few sessions. However, the full effect may vary from person to person, and in some cases the recovery process may take up to several weeks. Patients are encouraged to return to normal activities after treatment, but are advised to avoid heavy exercise and strenuous activities.

The success rate of ESWT is quite high; Many patients experience a significant reduction in heel pain and improved mobility after treatment. However, the effectiveness of treatment may depend on the person's medical condition, heel spur severity, and personal recovery capacity.

Robotic Rehabilitation Center offers additional services such as personalized exercise plans and continuous support in addition to ESWT, always prioritizing patient satisfaction. In case of heel spur disease, in addition to treatment, guidance is also given on issues such as ergonomic consultancy, foot health and choosing the right shoes.
