Tennis Elbow Treatment

Shockwave therapy is a controversial treatment option for tennis elbow.
The idea behind shockwave therapy is to use sound waves to induce so-called 'micro trauma' to tissues.
This micro trauma initiates a healing response and helps to decrease inflammation.
There are several possible surgical treatments that have been successful.
These include removing a portion of the damaged tendon or releasing the attachment of the affected tendon.
A repair of the healthy portion of tendon is sometimes carried out as well.

Surgery to release the damaged tendon is usually successful, but rarely needed; about 95 percent of patients with tennis elbow can be treated without surgery.

A variety of conservation treatments should be tried prior to opting for surgery.

Pushing drugs !!

For years, drug companies (pharmaceuticals AKA Big Pharma) have been taking the public for a costly ride and making a killing in the process -- seriously, a lot of people are dying as a result.

In this documentary, find out how Big Pharma's clever politics and marketing schemes are tailored specifically to empty out our bank accounts and force us to sell-off our homes if need be, for drugs that would otherwise cost a few pesos elsewhere in the world.

But it doesn't stop there:

With so much profit potential glistening in their eyes, these companies have little incentive to provide cures.

Rather, they recycle old drugs, modifying them ever so slightly (often resulting in deadly cocktails), for the single purpose of acquiring new patents.

Thus, renewing their monopoly over pricing.

But that's only the beginning - Watch it and see fotr yourself :
