Equine Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave Therapy – This video discusses shockwave therapy. It is a veterinary treatment most commonly used for ligament damage (eg. Proximal suspensory desmitis) and back injuries. The shockwave machine fires sound waves to the specific area where the probe is placed. This increases blood flow to the area and which in turn aids healing. It is also thought to provide some pain relief to the area targeted.
