Benefits of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy to Reduce Spasticity in Stroke/CP

Benefits of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy to Reduce Spasticity in Stroke/CP

This Study will help to explain us that ExtracorporealShockwave therapy can reduce spasticity in Stroke Patient,help them to restore their abilities and ROM.Therapy reduces dependency rate of patient.Also seen this therapy shows reduction in spasticity of CP child population.Improving the motor recovery.

ESWT therapy increses molecular and immunological reactions,increase blood microcirculation and neurovascularization.It enhancing the neural proliferation of neural stem cell(NSC),which shows repair in brain function in CNS diseases.Extracorporeal shockwave can produce Nitric oxide in enzymatic and non enzymatic way which help, to reduce muscle spasm.Extracorporeal Shockwave reduce the exitibilty of motor neuron by vibratory stimulation of tendon and reduces tension.After 2 weeks ESWT muscle tension reduces increases range of motion reduces the pain.shock wave therapy appears to be effective in reducing spasticity levels irrespective of the age of the participants, the type of injury, and the tool used to measure the effect.ESWT change in motor neuron exitibilty & also associated with the spastic muscle.
