I walk through how the study was designed, what each treatment involved, and why the results showed no meaningful difference between the two approaches. We also explore the role of education, load management, and compressive tolerance, and what this means for your rehab decisions moving forward. If youโ€™ve ever wondered whether shockwave is worth trying or how it stacks up against a structured strength program, this episode gives you a clear, evidence-based answer.
