Shockwave therapy for arthrofibrosis after TKR

Posted by psppsp @psppsp, Aug 17 12:44pm

I had tkr 10 months ago. Developed arthrofibrosis and continued to have a lot of pain and stiffness. Fortunately someone in this chat group mentioned shockwave therapy, and I am so grateful, because after the first two sessions I am feeling way less pain! Thank you!

I hope it works for you. It’s a little unpleasant, but swearing helps, LOL
I was skeptical, but very encouraged now!
Best of luck!
