Has anyone had ASTYM treatment for an injury? My physical therapist - who has helped me through numerous shoulder problems - recommended it yesterday for some lower calf/Achilles tendon pain (apparently I am also very tight in this lower leg area). I had one session (not the most fun I have had!) and I am scheduled for 3 more. I think it has begun to help - but am interested in others' experiences with this modality. Thanks for any info anyone might have......
Thanks for the follow-up info. Interesting about the laser stuff!
And ASTYM does leave bruises - numerous (multi-colored) ones!!
However, it does seem to be working (3rd treatment yesterday) and I notice definitely increased range of motion (as does my PT!). They told me I would see results likely after the 3rd treatment - I do - and the treatments are becoming less painful.
