It is now more than a decade since External Counter Pulsation, ECP has been used and accepted as a method of treatment for life threatening disabilities due to CAD, CHF, and stable angina throughout the world. The effectiveness of treating these cardio-diseases is beyond doubt a success and is well documented in the text book of cardiology and various cardiology journals.
A randomized trial with ECP, published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology in 1999, showed that ECP significantly improved both the symptoms of angina (a subjective measurement) and exercise tolerance (a more objective measurement) in patients with coronary artery disease. ECP also significantly improved their 'quality of life', as compared to placebo therapy.

Whilst visiting one of the medical centres in Israel performing Lithotripsy, we saw a rather disturbing kidney stone treatment being carried out by an ESWL machine. A female patient in her late thirties was on the treatment table in an anaesthetised state, Lithotripsy treatment was being carried out, and her skin at the point of the reflector contact was bruised and bleeding. We also saw a rather concerning occurrence, in that even when the patient was in an anaesthetised state, that the body jumped as every shockwave was released, to the point where two attendants were restraining her to keep her in position.
