THE NEXT GENERATION OF HEALING

What is Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave Therapy, or Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (EWST), is a non-invasive treatment that involves the delivery of shockwaves to an injured area to promote healing. This treatment produces highly effective shockwaves that initiate biological regeneration processes at the cellular level.

Treatment involving technology that applies short, frequent, and high intensity bursts of mechanical energy (in the form of a shockwave) into soft-tissue that is injured, scarred, or contains adhesions, is painful, or inflamed.

Quick treatment times - avg 10-15 minutes.
A gel is applied to the surface area to be treated.
Applicator produces pulses as the clinician moves it around the treatment area.
Patient provides immediate feedback.

"Right there"

Enhanced Treatment Accuracy: SoftWave technology allows you to pinpoint treatment areas accurately through real-time patient feedback. This precise targeting can improve treatment outcomes and efficiency.

Adaptive Therapy: Energy levels are adjusted with patient feedback.

Patient Engagement: Involving patients in the therapy process through feedback fosters a collaborative approach, increasing patient satisfaction and trust.

How Does Shockwave Work?

SPARKING THE BODY'S NATURAL HEALING

Mechanotransduction Mechanism with 3 Phases

1. PHYSICAL

Generates a large positive pressure wave followed by a negative pressure wave.

2. CHEMICAL

Mechanical stimulus leads to biochemical reactions. Biomolecules are released and cell signaling is activated.

3. BIOLOGICAL

Angiogenesis, inflammatory modulation, stimulation of tissue regeneration.

Confusion in the marketplace

There are 3 ways to generate a shockwave. Radial is not a shockwave, it is a pressure wave.

There are many names. THEY ARE NOT ALL THE SAME.

These include:

Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT)
Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Therapy (EPAT)
Shock Wave Therapy
Pressure Wave
Acoustic Wave/Sound Wave
Acoustic Wave Therapy (AWT)
Radial Shock Wave Therapy (RSWT)
Extracorporeal Acoustic Wave Therapy (EAWT)
Low Intensity Shockwave Therapy (LISWT)
Acoustic Pneumatic/Ballistic
Electromagnetic
Piezoelectric
Electrohydraulic
Focused
Unfocused
Radial

Note: A TRUE shock wave is characterized by a single, mostly positive pressure pulse followed by a comparatively small tensile wave.

3 types of Shockwave

There are 3 types of true shock wave therapies and 1 assumed type (Radial) that is not a true shock wave therapy

ELECTROHYDRAULIC

Focused/Broad Focused

ELECTROMAGNETIC

In addition, within shockwave therapy, there is High Intensity and Low Intensity

SoftWave delivers therapeutic levels of acoustic energy over the broadest treatment area

SoftWave therapy requires the least number of shocks, the fewest treatments, and superior outcomes with the least pain at energy levels that do not cause cellular trauma or injury.
