Summary

This early-stage study tests whether focused shockwave therapy can reduce arm and hand spasticity in people with spinal cord injury. Twelve participants will receive three weekly treatments, and researchers will measure changes in muscle stiffness, function, and quality of life. The goal is to see if this non-invasive approach could be a safe, effective option with no long-term side effects.
