In military cadets with MTSS (shin splints), A single application of focused shockwave treatment improved mean run time after four weeks to 17 min 33 sec, compared to 4 min 48 sec in the exercise-only group.

Both f-ESWT and r-ESWT are effective at alleviating pain and improving physical functions, knee range of motion, and the 6-minute walk test distance in patients with knee OA. The f-ESWT yielded a greater reduction in pain and improvements in physical function and the 6-minute walk test distance compared with r-ESWT.
