摘要

Background

ESWT is a safe, evidence-based, and effective procedure that has proven itself in almost all areas of medical care. To ensure high-quality use of this effective method, it is essential that it is applied in accordance with the applicable standards.

Methodology

Traditional, narrative review.

Results

The increasing proportion of physically demanding occupations, increasing lack of exercise, (over)aging of the population, and work intensification are leading to an increasing number of tendinopathies, myofascial dysfunctions, and chronic pain conditions. In this context, ESWT is becoming a relevant tool in modern, function-oriented occupational, preventive, rehabilitative, and geriatric medicine. ESWT usually acts as an “enabler” and “accelerator”, i.e., a biological activator of functional processes. ESWT is not a passive procedure, but rather an activator that often enables functional treatments through pain reduction and regenerative effects. ESWT combines regeneration, prevention, rehabilitation, mobility, participation, and economic sustainability and will continue to gain importance in an aging society.

Conclusions

ESWT can be highly relevant in multimodal applications in prevention, rehabilitation, occupational medicine, geriatrics, and nursing care. Increased use of ESWT in prevention, rehabilitation, occupational medicine, and geriatrics, with reimbursement by the public health system, should be encouraged.
