Achilles Tendinopathy Clinical Trial

Official title:
Pilot Investigation to Evaluate Effectiveness of Shockwave Therapy, a Combination of Shockwave Therapy and Photobiomodulation and Physical Therapy in the Management of Non-insertional Achilles Tendinopathy: A Randomized Control Trial With Elective Cross-Over Design

Clinical Trial Summary

This is a randomized control trial with an elective cross over after three months to evaluate three different treatments in the management of non-insertional Achilles Tendinopathy. The treatment methods include physical therapy, shockwave therapy and photobiomodulation.

Clinical Trial Description

This is a randomized control study with an elective cross over. In part 1 of the study participants will be randomized into one of three treatment arms: 1) physical therapy only; 2) physical therapy and shockwave therapy; 3) physical therapy, shockwave therapy and photobiomodulation.
