MICHELLE DOES IT AGAIN
This time it’s my knees.
Having solved my plantar fasciitis problem almost 2 years ago using the EMS Dolorclast shockwave therapy machine, she has now helped me with arthritis pain in my knees.
Osteoarthritis in my knees has progressively worsened over the past 15 years . The right knee is the most affected. It is not so bad that I need a knee replacement yet, but I have been using Voltarol 12 hour gel twice daily for several years to reduce the pain and sometimes by the end of the day you could almost fry an egg on my right knee , it’s that hot. To walk upstairs I have to use my left leg to raise myself step by step and on a bad day or if carrying anything weighty ,I have to haul myself up using the banister as well. Over the years this dependence on my left leg has caused increasing problems with my left knee.
At a recent podiatry appointment Michelle told me she had treated someone with a similar problem using the Dolorclast machine and had received good feedback from her client, so I said; “Let’s give it a try”
Initially I booked three sessions. Session 1 was uncomfortable at times but Michelle took things slowly, only increasing the power level slightly to tolerable levels. In session 2 she was able to raise the power level and it was less uncomfortable. In the time between sessions 2 and 3, I noted a reduction in my knee pain. At session 3 Michelle was able to build up the output incrementally so that by the end of the session she was able to apply almost maximum power for a short period.
On the basis that I was experiencing less knee pain I booked a further 3 sessions.
Session 4. Michelle was able to build up the power level more quickly than in the previous session and was able to use the Dolorclast at full power for a longer period than previously. I experienced minimal discomfort.
I experienced a further reduction in knee pain during the following week.
Session 5. As session 4 but we got up to full power more quickly.
No discomfort experienced & I experienced a further reduction in knee pain during the following week.
Session 6. Most of this session was done at full power with no discomfort.
One week after this I realised that I had just walked up a long flight of stairs normally with no pain.
This is now 6 weeks on and I am still experiencing significantly less knee pain than before the treatment and walking up stairs normally. Watch this space!
Thank you Michelle.

DolorClast Knee Treatment - upadate to my last review in November 2023: More than 4 months have passed since my previous comments and I am pleased to report that my knee pain is still greatly reduced and I am still walking up stairs normally - thanks again Michelle.
Hi Michelle, Just checking in, my ankle has been amazing since Wednesday. I purposefully haven't excersised to let it work but just wanted to say how much of a difference there is since the last session. I will try a few gentle runs on the treadmill before our next session...but it's feeling great! Thanks for the laser too I really think it's made a difference!
From the day I walked in the door at Pop Podiatry to when I left following my last treatment, the care and attention to detail from Michelle is absolutely first class. She puts you at total ease. I suffered of pain in my foot due to plantar fasciitis and dispite everything I tried, the pain was constant. Following a course of shockwave therapy from the Swiss DolorClast machine Michelle uses, my pain has gone and I can go walking again! I can't recommend this fantastic treatment highly enough - it's given me my foot back! Don't hesitate to book a consultation in, you will not regret it, that I can guarantee.
I am so happy with the results, after the first treatment I had relief and now able to enjoy a walk.
After suffering from plantar fascilitis for 6 months I heard about shockwave therapy on the radio thought would try this as nothing else has worked so far.
What a difference in 3 sessions pain is almost gone and I can walk much further without pain, so glad I did this and with continuing stretching exercises I am hopeful for a full recovery, thanks Michelle.
Michelle was a breath of fresh air and her services was exactly what I was hoping to find. I found her to be professional, genuine and She explained the shock wave treatment clearly including the benefits. I had 3 treatments and I noticed a huge difference after the third treatment. The pain I have suffered from planter fasciitis for many months has virtually gone and I am so grateful that this treatment has worked. Thank you Michelle, your enthusiasm and good nature has been the best medicine I could have wished for.
Hi Michelle, just wishing to say a big thank you for yor help. I do feel your good work has solved my plantar fasciitis, so a Mount Everest of thank you's. Best wishes, Graham.
Cluster of Verrucas have finally gone. My son had less pain after the first treatment and pain free after the second. Michelle has been so patient and has such a fabulous clinical setting, privacy and dignity foremost. The SWIFT treatment is the only method that worked, we did have more treatment than expected because the Verrucas were so deep routed and they have finally gone. HIGHLY recommend Michelle's clinic for those with additional needs.
