My physiotherapist would like me to try some shockwave therapy in an effort to break up some scar tissue from a 6 year old accident that is getting in the way of function of some nerves that are also impacted further up the chain by problems in my lumbar spine from another incident in 2015. I agree with her that having the nerves all inhibited in multiple locations in the chain is complicating things like a garden hose kinked in multiple locations and then turning down the flow at the source (lumbar nerve roots). At this point I am at wits end (although in the last 3 weeks this woman has made decent progress on me), but I am still hopeful to return to regular cycling and ideally would like to be able to run on the treadmill (if I can't run outside due to pounding, no worries, treadmill running regularly would be fine). I know things are getting close to return to normal (at least I am not that far off). Any of you guys who have had shockwave therapy to break up scar tissue could you share your views. Would like to hear from active people who like to push the limits of their anatomy too (beyond reading in the interwebs with all the biases that come with that).
