<qa>  What is the effect of extracorporeal shockwave therapy on walking distances?This study aims to compare the effects of extracorporeal shockwave therapy ESWT to placebo with use of a sham control group on walking distances in subjects with lower limb intermittent calf claudication. Extracorporeal shockwave therapy will be applied using the PiezoWave2 shockwave system. All applications will be in adherence to the manufacturers instructions and provided by trained staff. The device will be targeted at the gastrocnemius muscles of the affected lower leg for several minutes at each treatment session. Participants in control group will undergo the identical process as if treatment were being given but with the shockwaves not being administered and a sham device alternatively used. Participants will have several assessments prior to and after the shockwave treatment in order to quantify the effect. Assessments will include Maximum Walking Distance MWD, Claudication Distance CD and Quality of life questionnaires.
