The treatment was carried out by a physical therapist with at least 5 years of ESWT experience. The patient sat with the shoulder abducted at 45°, the elbow flexed at 90°, and the forearm supinated. The shock waves were delivered in a circular motion, targeting the 2-3 most painful tender points within a 3 cm radius centered on the lateral epicondyle. A total of 2,500 pulses were administered per session (0.2 to 2 bar, 8 Hz, 2,500 pulses, with intensity adjusted according to the patient's tolerance).

The process included conducting interviews, filling out assessment forms, performing movement checks, and conducting palpation. Four CC points covering the entire upper limb, including the shoulder area, were selected. The points were ranked based on the severity of the dense touch. The blackboard pen was used to mark the points on the patient's body. The same ESWT therapist as in Group A used the same shock wave treatment instrument to treat the four CC points. The most severe point received 800 shocks, the second most received 700 shocks, and the remaining two points each received 500 shocks. A total of 2,500 pulses (with an intensity of 0.2 to 2 bar, a frequency of 8 Hz, and the intensity adjusted according to the depth of the point and the patient's tolerance) were administered.

At the same time, treat the lateral epicondylitis pain area in the same way as Group A. Apply 1000 pulses to the pain area.

It will also check for any side effects.\n\nMain Questions:\n\nDoes treating fascial points (key tension areas in the arm) with shockwaves reduce pain more than just treating the elbow? Are there any temporary discomforts (like soreness or swelling) after treatment?\n\nHow It Works:\n\nResearchers will compare three approaches:\n\nGroup A: Shockwaves applied only to the painful elbow area (standard treatment).\n\nGroup B: Shockwaves applied to 4 fascial points in the arm\u002Fshoulder (no elbow treatment).\n\nGroup C: Shockwaves applied to both the elbow and 3 fascial points.\n\nParticipants Will:\n\nReceive 4 shockwave sessions (1 session every 5 days). Report pain levels, grip strength, and daily activities for 3 months. Attend follow-up visits to track progress.\n\nWhy It Matters:\n\nIf successful, this could lead to a more effective way to treat tennis elbow-by targeting the root cause of tension in the arm's connective tissue, not just the pain spot.",[89],"Lateral Epicondylitis (Tennis Elbow)",[91,92,93],"Fascial Manipulation","Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy","Lateral Epicondylitis","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2025-08-16",{"date":97,"type":98},"2025-08-20","ACTUAL",{"date":100,"type":83},"2025-09-25",{"date":102,"type":83},"2027-08-01",{"name":68,"class":6},1]
