The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) issues guidance on medicines, treatments and procedures. NICE is a special health authority of the National Health Service (NHS).

 

They offer guidelines on extracorporeal shockwave therapy, as offered by our clinic.

 

With Shockwave Therapy a machine is used to deliver sound waves to the painful area and this stimulates healing.


Read the Nice Guidelines here:
