The following are some of the painful conditions that can be effectively treated with the application of pressure wave technology:
Pressure Wave technology has the potential to effectively treat a wide variety of diseases, including but not limited to knee pain, heel pain, foot pain, ankle pain, Achilles, plantar fasciitis, back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, elbow pain, wrist pain, and hand pain. In addition to that, it can be utilized for trigger point therapy, the treatment of sports injuries and scar tissue, the acceleration of bone mending, and even more!
* This causes the healing process to be sped up and simplified.
What kinds of conditions can be managed with shockwave therapy?
* Foot, heel, and ankle pain
This method, which has been demonstrated by scientific research, offers a number of benefits, including the following:
In order for the Pressure Wave technology to be effective, it must speed up the natural healing process that occurs within the body. This is accomplished by revving up the metabolism and improving blood circulation in order to regenerate damaged tissue, which is ultimately responsible for the healing of bone and connective tissue. Pressure Wave has a demonstrated rate of effectiveness and has the potential to be more successful than other treatment options, such as surgery or medicines, without the associated hazards.

What are the advantages of undergoing treatment with shockwaves?
* Facilitated healing
* There is hardly any potential for danger or adverse effects.
* It is more expedient and economical.
How does the treatment using pressure wave waves work?
Advantages of pressure wave and shockwave therapy
Is the therapy using shockwaves effective?
* Tendon pain
Pressure Wave therapy is a very efficient technique of treatment that involves the application of high-energy sound waves to the parts of the body that are experiencing discomfort. According to clinical tests, it has a success rate of 91%, making it one of the most sophisticated pain therapies now available, in addition to being one of the most effective, highly successful, and non-invasive pain remedies.
* There is no scarring.
According to clinical research, this represents a success rate of 91%.
Pressure Wave technology, also known as Shockwave and EPAT, can be of assistance to people who are afflicted with either acute or chronic pain, as well as those who have mobility issues that negatively impact their quality of life.
What exactly does "pressure wave treatment" entail?
* It does not intrude in any way.
* Additionally, it is utilized to treat scar tissue, stress fractures, accelerate bone healing, treat sports injuries, and address other types of ailments.
Shockwaves stimulate fibroblasts that are cells responsible for healing of connective tissue such as tendons. Diminishes pain by two mechanisms. Hyperstimulation anesthesia – local nerve endings are overwhelmed with so many stimuli that their activity diminishes resulting in short-term reduction in pain.
However, Dr. Finnoff notes that multiple high-quality randomized clinical trials have provided substantial evidence that ESWT is a safe and effective noninvasive option for treating tendinopathy throughout the musculoskeletal system.
Precautions after shockwave therapy treatment: We advise not to use ice or anti-inflammatory medicines after shockwave therapy as these will be counterproductive to the treatment, which encourages the bodies own natural healing process.
Shockwave treatment lasts approximately 5-10 minutes. During each session approximately 2500-3000 shocks will be administered to the injured tissue. During your shockwave session your physiotherapist will adjust the machine intensity to ensure the injured tissue receives the required energy/dosage.
Malignant tumors, metastasis, multiple myeloma, and lymphoma in the treatment area have to be seen as contraindications for treatment with radial and focused shock waves with low and high energy. Cancer itself, in the form of the underlying disease, is not a contraindication for ESWT [4].
Most patients require three sessions of shockwave therapy, each a week apart, before significant pain relief is noticed. Some conditions may require five treatments. Your specialist will be able to discuss your particular case and expectations with you.
