Healing explosions-history of shockwave medicine

Dear Members of the ISMST,

as you all know, unfortunately we could not hold our annual congress in 2020 due to the pandemic. Thus, the main source of income for the Society was lost and the running costs had to be covered. In order to keep the financial basis of the Society on a secure footing in the future, the Board has proposed to the AGM to increase the annual membership fee to € 150, which was unanimously accepted. From now on also the members of the board will pay the annual membership fee. In addition, it was also decided that from now on an entrance fee of € 100.- for new members is to be paid, whereby the annual membership in the first year is reduced by 50% (€ 75.-): thus the annual membership in the first year amounts to € 175.-. If the annual membership fee is not paid for 2 years, the entrance fee will be due again.

In the name of the board I ask for your understanding for this measure, which should guarantee the financial independence of our society in the future.

Your president
Wolfgang Schaden, MD, adj. Prof.

Attendees, guests, and colleagues—welcome!

We are delighted to invite you to the 26th ISMST World Congress, which will take place June 6-8th 2024 in Leonardo Royal Hotel Amsterdam.

The international ISMST congress is a podium for connection and getting up to date on shockwave therapy. Our intention with this conference is to help those who are new to this medical field gaining knowledge and experiencing this treatment modality, but also update the ones who have extensive knowledge to navigate the winding road toward success. Our hope is that by the end of our conference, you gained knowledge on when and how shockwave therapy is used around the world. During this event, we encourage you to make contacts and new connections that will reinforce your feeling of inclusion. If we can be of any assistance in this endeavor, then please feel free to reach out.

Our agenda features expert advice and cutting-edge research that helps us better understand the background and future of shockwave therapy. Though shockwave therapy comes in many forms, certain key features define and underlie the success. For example, to understand its working mechanism we promote basic research, performing good quality research, acknowledge struggles, and foster a climate of encouragement and healthy exchange of knowledge as this is fundamental for becoming even more successful. Our intention is for you to find this conference helpful in moving you toward these goals.

In addition, you will be able to attend instructional courses for both medical doctors and physiotherapists, in which you will be taught about the technical background, its biological efficacy, and you will practice its application in various approved indications under experts’ supervision.

On top of that, the social program will show you the world’s most liberal city; Amsterdam. Amsterdam is a well-connected and accessible, digital and social hub. It is well known for its artistic heritage, extensive canals and its houses, but also of its famous beers and DJs. So let yourselves be surprised and enjoy!

We are looking forward to meeting you in person in our wonderful city of Amsterdam to get a taste of the best it has to offer.

On behalf of our local organizing committee,

Marianne Koolen
26th International ISMST Congress President
