Theory
Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT)has become an emerging new
technology for treating musculoskeletal problems, soft-tissue injuries and
bone injuries in horses. ESWT is non-invasive, used to stimulate healing to
return horses to a level of fully sound, useful activity without recurrence
of disease.
While a veterinary clinic can administer ESWT to inpatients, most
practitioners take the therapy to their equine clients. The horse remains
standing in his stall usually lightly sedated to keep him from moving
excessively during the treatment. A veterinarian uses a portable unit to
generate high-pressure acoustic (sound) waves. The apparatus is held against
the injured area (bone, joint, tendon, or ligament) for about twenty
minutes. A typical course of therapy involves three treatments at three-week
intervals.
What happens to the tissues treated with this therapy?

While the exact mechanism is not yet known, ESWT commonly leads to improved
circulation due to blood vessel dilation in and around the injured area. Growth
of new blood vessels has also been recorded.
Significant pain relief is almost immediately evident, although slight swelling
and sensitivity may be noticed for a few days. ESWT also has a positive effect
on the concentration of transforming growth factor beta 1, which stimulates cell
activity. In addition, ESWT influences bone remodeling by thickening the outer
layers and strengthening the cell network underlying joint cartilage.
