It's incomprehensible that needle lavage for the treatment of calcific tendencies continues to lead a shadowy existence in Germany. With more than 4,000 treatments performed in the last nine years, our practice is by far the leader in Germany.
Abroad, the picture is completely different. More and more studies are being published that clearly demonstrate that needle lavage is a safe and highly promising procedure for treating calcific tendons.
After a Level 1 study was published last year (Level 1 means the highest scientific validity), several more studies were published this year, all with very good results.
A selection of the study summaries can be found in our downloads section.
