Cardiac shock wave therapy (CSWT) is a very well-tolerated, scientifically proven, and safe procedure that we perform in our practice only after thorough diagnosis and individual assessment.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    It is important to us that these exclusion criteria are not assessed across the board, but always on a patient-specific basis. At Schlosspraxen Meyer, we take the time to carefully review each medical history in order to realistically weigh up the benefits and risks.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
