Focused Shock Wave Therapy Machine F-ESWT
Shock Wave Therapy is a non-invasive procedure often used to treat injured bones, joints, muscles, tendons and other soft tissues. With no need for painkillers, shock wave therapy can offer fast pain relief and aid recovery for a range of chronic conditions including:
Shock wave therapy is delivered directly onto the affected area via the use of a ‘generator’ or device, using low-energy acoustic waves that penetrate the skin and treat the immediate area.
Most treatments are applied by a therapist using a hand-held device, which turns compressed air into low-energy sound waves. Light pressure is applied and the device is moved across the damaged areas that require treatment.
Shock wave therapy has two main modes of action that can help with persistent pain.
Firstly, the shock waves work to desensitise nerve endings which can immediately reduce pain in the local area. Secondly, the waves stimulate blood flow in the area, causing a small amount of localised inflammation.
In the days immediately following the treatment, the body naturally tries to heal the inflammation and in doing so, encourages the regeneration of cells, repairing damaged tissue and reducing pain.
Shock wave therapy can also help with issues relating to scar tissue. Because scar tissue is much denser - and much less elastic - than normal tissue, the sound waves can help break it down, improving mobility and reducing discomfort.
