Shockwave therapy can relieve inflammation and pain for foot pain, knee pain, plantar fasciitis, frozen shoulder, elbow pain, Achilles tendonitis, sports injuries, low back pain, neck pain, herniated disc, sciatica, numbness in hands and feet. Another effect of shockwave therapy is that it can stimulate cell regeneration and speed up the repair of the affected area.

​

Extracorporeal shock wave therapy has been used to break up kidney stones and urinary stones for more than 20 years. However, shock wave and trigger point therapy have been widely used in muscle and bone tissue fatigue pain, and are very effective as non-invasive treatments. As a new generation of shock wave therapy, PIEZOWAVE can treat a wide range of myofascial pain syndromes. It has a focusing feature that can accurately target muscle trigger points of different depths for effective treatment.

 

Shock waves are a type of high-energy sound waves that can effectively stimulate biochemical changes in injured tissues. Due to its high energy, it causes micro-damage to the affected tissues, thereby stimulating the growth of new blood vessels, accelerating blood circulation, and inducing new inflammatory processes, thereby awakening the self-repair function of cells. In addition, the high energy of shock waves can also stimulate a large number of synaesthesia neuroreceptors, achieving an immediate pain relief effect.

 

Unlike general diffuse pressure waves, PIEZOWAVE shock waves have focusing characteristics, and the maximum energy is concentrated at the focus position, so it will not cause obvious sensations on the epidermis. When used by trained professionals, shock waves have no serious or long-term side effects. Only when focusing on the excitation point will the patient feel soreness, numbness, and pain at that location. Sometimes the treated area may become red and swollen, which are mild or temporary and will disappear naturally soon. According to experience, most patients can feel initial improvement after the first treatment, especially in terms of pain relief, and usually, significant improvement will be seen after the 5th to 10th treatment. However, it also depends on the degree of pain and condition of individual patients.
