How extracorporeal focused shock wave therapy works
Highlights
- Effective for hard calcification in the tissue.
- Ideal therapy for delayed bone healing or pseudoarthrosis
- Trigger point treatment relieves tension and pain through targeted stimulation
- Supports healing in the event of inflammation of the tendon sheaths
- User-friendly touch display with 27 preset therapy protocols
- Continuous shock intensity monitoring
- Individually adjustable penetration density
- Easily adjustable therapy parameters
Operating principle & technology
The focused shock wave stimulates the deep tissue layers and releases growth factors that stimulate the healing process in the affected tissue. This therapy is particularly effective in the treatment of deep-seated tendinopathies, calcifications and pseudoarthroses. The shock waves have a targeted effect on the affected areas and promote tissue regeneration.
Setting new standards
With its patented electro-acoustic technology, the system offers an exceptionally long service life of up to 3 million shocks at a constant intensity. The perfect interplay between energy current density and focus zone ensures precise and efficient delivery of large amounts of energy to a large area. The intelligent applicator continuously monitors the shock intensity to ensure simple and safe operation. With the highest frequency range on the market, a wide range of indications can be treated.
Studies
Focused ESWT is an effective method for short- and long-term treatment of patients suffering from chronic plantar fasciitis.
The most significant reduction in pain according to the VAS score was found in the group of patients with Achilles tendinopathy (60.9%), followed by the group of patients with patellar tendinopathy (57.8%).
FSWT has been found to be an effective method for immediate pain reduction in patients with epicondylitis, rotator cuff syndrome, plantar fasciitis, patellar tendinopathy, and Achilles tendinosis.
The reduction in pain during normal daily activities was 63% at the 3-month follow-up. Satisfaction with therapy outcomes as measured by Roles and Maudsley scores improved by 46.9% at 3-month follow-up.
