SHOCKWAVE THERAPY

The Shockwave machine: ​

  • Delivers acoustical energy to affected areas of the body
  • Activates self-healing process where pain occurs
  • Eliminate chronic pain in a short period of time
  • Alternative to surgery and infections

Indication

  • Heel pain (plantar fasciitis)
  • Achilles tendonitis
  • Heel spur
  • Shin splints
  • Neuroma
  • Fibroma
  • Bunions
  • Painful arch
  • Painful Trigger Points: ​Acute and chronic pain in the back, shoulder, neck, etc. due to permanently shortened and thickened muscles
  • Acupuncture Points: ​Pain therapy via treatment of acupuncture points

Introduction: Clear pain relief mostly just a few days after the first session

  • Each day, chronic pain drains those people who suffer from it; it saps their joy of life and affects the quality of life. A painful heel, makes every step more challenging than it should be.
  • Chronic pain often limits the regular practice of sports such as jogging, walking, golf. Tennis elbow, for example, may cause you to give up your favourite game
  • Chronic pain also affects performance on the job. Acute shoulder pain, for example, drains your physical and mental capacity with the slightest arm movement

  • High success rate
  • Outpatient treatment
  • Fast, gentle and effective, QUICK RESULTS, PAINLESS AFTER TREATMENT

How does shockwave work?

  • Delivers high­energy shock waves to the tissue via the skin
  • Activates your body’s self­healing processes where pain occurs
  • Increases metabolic activity through improved blood circulation and the formation of new blood vessels.
  • Nurtures and accelerates the healing process through cell regeneration.

SHOCKWAVES GENERATE HIGH PNEUMATIC ENERGY – FOR RELIEF FROM PAIN

  • The precision compressed­ air impulse accelerates the projectile in the hand piece
  • The impact of the projectile on the applicator generates the shockwave
  • The shockwave is delivered to the tissue
  • The advantage of shockwaves is that they generally produce an extensive analgesic area. By radiating out, shockwaves extend to the entire area where pain occurs.
  • Shockwaves produce an anti-inflammatory effect. This weakens any inflammatory process.

 

­ACTIVATES CELLULAR DEFENSES

  • By contributing to the release of free radicals, shockwaves help strengthen the body’s
  • Endogenous cellular defense mechanisms to protect it from disease.

 

­HYPERSTIMULATES NERVE FIBRES

  • Scientific studies also show that shockwaves act in another way. Overstimulating the nerve fibers blocks an increase in pain stimuli and therefore intensifies the analgesic effect
