Calcified Periarthritis

Calcified Periarthritis (Calcific Tendinitis) is the deposition of calcium salts in the tendons of the shoulder, such as the supraspinatus tendon.


A comprehensive therapeutic approach is essential for effective treatment:

  • Rehabilitation (Physiotherapy): A tailored rehabilitation program to improve function and mobility.
  • Shockwave Therapy: Use of shock waves to fragment the calcium deposits, aiding in their reduction.
  • Range of Motion (ROM) Retention: Ensuring and maintaining the shoulder's full range of motion.
  • Intra-articular Injections: Administered where applicable to reduce inflammation and promote healing.
  • Strengthening the Shoulder Muscles: Focus on increasing muscle strength to stabilize the shoulder joint.


This multi-faceted approach ensures the best possible therapeutic outcomes for patients suffering from calcified periarthritis.
