Interventions
Focused Extracorporeal shock wave for 700 impulses of 0.056 mJ/mm at a frequency of 10 Hz to the taut band and 300 impulses surrounding the taut band was applied as low energy 2 sessions per week for 4 weeks. (EME S.r.l. via Degli Abeti 88/161122 Pesaro \[serial number: EM12681015\], Italy) was used as a focused extracorporeal shock wave therapy apparatus.
(EME S.r.l. via Degli Abeti 88/161122 Pesaro \[serial number: EM12681015\], Italy) was used as a focused extracorporeal shock wave therapy apparatus. The device will be used in the demo mood with no radiation or impulses applied.
