"I was in a wheelchair the entire month of January."
Cynthia Sutton wasn’t dealing with a minor knee injury. She had a root horn meniscus tear that completely separated, ultimately requiring surgery to reattach it.
What followed was a long road back. But when Cynthia began rehabilitation at Logan University, shockwave therapy became part of her recovery alongside chiropractic care and other modalities.
In this episode of the Shockwave Tissue Regeneration Therapy Podcast, Thomas Helfrich sits down with Cynthia, Director of Alumni Relations at Logan University, to hear what that recovery looked like and why she believes shockwave played a significant role in helping her get back on her feet.
They also talk about how future chiropractors are being exposed to technologies like shockwave during their clinical training and why evidence, equipment selection, and education matter as new treatment options enter the profession.
In this episode, you'll learn:
How Cynthia recovered from a severe meniscus tear that left her non-weight-bearing for an entire month.
Why she believes shockwave therapy helped accelerate her healing as part of a broader rehabilitation plan.
How students at Logan University gain experience with different treatment modalities during their clinical training.
Why choosing the right technology and equipment matters when preparing the next generation of healthcare providers.
What Cynthia learned about the potential applications of shockwave therapy, including its use for plantar fasciitis.
Cynthia’s experience also highlights something important about recovery: shockwave wasn’t the only part of her rehabilitation, and she doesn’t claim that it was. But looking back at how quickly she was able to return to long days on her feet, she says it was a huge part of getting there.
