Game Changer: How World Cup Athletes are Using The Miracle Wave® -Type Technology

From the World Cup in Brazil to local youth leagues, we all know soccer-related injuries are basically unavoidable. Just a few of the injuries recently reported include:

- Germany’s Lukas Pudolski, thigh injury
- Brazil’s star Neymar, fractured vertebra, injuries to right knee and left hamstring (out for the remainder of the World Cup)
- Dutch midfielder Nigel De Jong, groin injury 

The most common injuries are usually among lower extremities such as ankle sprains, muscle strains and contusions & tendinitis. While these athletic setbacks may or may not require surgery, they generally result in an extensive recovery period with a significant loss in playing time. 

Typical required treatment for athletes (especially within such a short time frame for the World Cup) consists of momentary rest and rehab, and then it's back on the field to compete again.

Although treatments for World Cup and other competitive players can vary from R.I.C.E. (Rest, Ice, Compression, Election) to corticosteroids, some soccer clubs now have actually discovered a different solution similar to The Miracle Wave ®  technology: ESWT or Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy.

Take the Villareal CF Soccer Club, for example. Villarreal CF is reportedly the first Spanish soccer club to use Shock Wave Therapy for the treatment of its players. The club's players are often affected by stress fractures, myalgia, and groin strains, the club's Medical Director believes ESWT to be a very effective solution for the daily treatment of his athletes' muscular problems as well as injuries.

This quick non-invasive solution for therapeutic rewards with no side effects was the way to go when time is involved.

For years ESWT has been used by veterinarians to assist with decreasing pain, alleviating injuries and even treating wounds. Today doctors are finding this technology can also be beneficial for human musculoskeletal conditions such as: 

- Tendinitis (mostly in the rotator cuff tendons)
- Tennis or golfer's elbow
- Plantar fasciitis (heel pain)
- Achilles tendinitis or pain from dorsal heel spurs
- Shin splints
- Patellar tendinitis and other knee injuries
- Gluteal tendinitis
- Myofascial trigger points
- other tendon irritations of the body

Whether you're a professional sports competitor, a rec-league athlete or someone who is suffering from any of the above conditions contact your doctor TODAY to find out whether The Miracle Wave® could be just as effective a solution for you as it is for certain World Cup players... or click here to visit our web site for more information.
