Extracorporeal Shock Wave Treatment (ESWT), the technology best known for its use in treating kidney stones, also has proven beneficial in the relief of several chronic orthopedic conditions. The FDA has approved this non-invasive procedure for treatment of chronic heel pain syndrome (Plantar Fasciitis).

Podiatrists, orthopedists, rheumatologists and others have embraced this effective, non-invasive surgical treatment for their patients. While many of our competitors have abandoned this technology in the face of complex obstacles like inadequate reimbursement levels, AKSM/Ortho remains poised to maximize the positive patient outcomes this treatment modality offers.
