How does it work?
- Compressed air accelerates a projectile which strikes a fixed applicator.
- The kinetic energy is converted into a shock wave delivered to the target tissue through the skin.
- These shock waves are conveyed radially for broad treatment areas.
- A shock wave begins by a compression phase. The peak pressure creates shear stress in the tissues.
- A tensile phase follows and generates cavitation bubbles. A high cavitation level is a result of a high amount of energy density delivered by the shock wave device.
- This energy stimulates metabolic reactions to the applied tissues
What are the benefits?
- Reduction of pain felt by nerve fibers
- Increase of blood circulation in surrounding soft tissues
- Beginning of healing process triggered by stem cells activation
How long does each session take?
A typical session will be around 20minutes depending on the condition and area/s treating.
