Stroke is a severe injury of the central nervous system (CNS) and one of the leading causes of long-term disability and mortality. One of the main symptoms of neurological diseases is spasticity. This is defined as a motor condition characterized by a velocity-dependent increase in tonic stretch reflexes with exaggerated tendon jerks and resulting in the hyperexcitability of the stretch reflex. Rehabilitation after a stroke is focused on relearning lost skills and regaining independence. Many new methods in neurorehabilitation have been introduced. This review concentrates on the current evidence for extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) as a noninvasive alternative to treat spasticity. We present the effect of EWST and radial EWST interventions to post-stroke patients with spasticity in the upper limb. Our collected data suggest that different parameters of shockwaves can be used to achieve functional improvementsin the upper limb after a stroke. Our accumulated data imply that ESWT is safe and can be used for pain relief, reduced muscle tension, and an increased range of motion. According to many studies, complications after shockwave treatment are infrequent. Transient complications after shockwave therapy (ESWT) include redness, tingling, pain, and bruising. We reviewed clinical trials that present the possible benefits in upper-limb function after shockwave therapy for post-stroke patients. In this article, we used many database search engines, including PEDro. In the stroke rehabilitation literature, a key methodological problem is the design of double-blind studies, which very often are not feasible.
