Put milk into a glass of ice for a few minutes, and pour into a gauze pad or thin cotton pad. Apply to irritated skin for 2-3 minutes, resoak cloth and reapply continuing process for about 10 minutes. This is one of reasons we created our milk baths, it contains powdered milk, sea salt and baking soda.

[C. Bailey-Lloyd]: "How long has this treatment been in use and how successful is it?" [L. Smith]: "The treatments have been used in Europe since early 1990s. Clinical Treatments in US started in 2000 with full approval for Sonocur in 2002. Success rates vary due to physician, experience and patient conditions. Studies have shown patients with complete recovery, patients with partial recovery, and patients with little or no recovery. But in general, 65% - 70% of patients results have been quite favorable."

[C. Bailey-Lloyd]: "How effective is shockwave therapy as opposed to other conventional treatments?" [L. Smith]: "Normal treatments for various tendonapathies include steroid injections, physical therapy, various orthopedic support devices and in chronic conditions, even surgery. Study data shows some chronic patients have responded to none of aforementioned treatments and have shown complete recovery with ESWL treatments. (ESWL therapy is recommended for patients that have a history of at least 6 months pain and unfavorable results with at least 3 of conventional treatments.)"

[C. Bailey-Lloyd]: "Are there any side effects to this treatment? Please Explain." [L. Smith]: "The 2 most common side effects reported were slight nausea during actual treamtne (approx. 20% of study patients) and soreness or stiffness next day after treatment. (Much like one feels next day after a hard physical workout.)"

Ms. Smith also told me that shockwave therapy is readily used in approximately 175 sites across Nation alone. Primarily orthopedic, sports medicine and podiatrist physicians provide shockwave therapy services. Additionally, "...shockwave therapy is approved by FDA in uses for Chronic Plantar fascilitis and medial or lateral epicondylitis." Globally, "...shockwave therapy is utilized for tendonapathies, knees, shoulders, and treatment of Nonunion fractures."

In closing, shockwave therapy has been proven to stimulate and accelerate human healing process. While research continues at multiple sites around country, shockwave therapy is revolutionizing modern medicine and effectively demonstrates how to achieve overall health.
