Focused Shockwave

It is a tool for treating chronic pain with a long chain of clinical evidence demonstrating high success rates for patients. In addition, your patients will need fewer treatments that take less than 10 minutes each.

Although both shockwave technologies produce the same therapeutic effects, a focused shockwave allows for an adjustable depth of penetration with constant maximum intensity, making the therapy suitable for treating both superficial and deep-lying tissues.

A radial shockwave allows changing the nature of the shock by using different types of shockwave transmitters. However, the maximum intensity is always concentrated superficially, which makes this therapy suitable for the treatment of superficially lying soft tissues.

As a physiotherapist, you are likely to deal with functional disorders and muscle imbalances that result from tendinopathies or calcifications.

A radial shockwave will cause strong mechanical stimulation and release the cycle of pain and muscle stiffness. In addition, you will appreciate the combination of static and dynamic applications, not only in the affected area, but also in the surrounding tissues.

You as an orthopedist usually focus on structural problems and treat the disorder locally. You also know best how deep the damaged tissue is.

This gives you the unique ability to combine both shockwave technologies based on the depth of the damaged tissue. A focused shockwave is a versatile tool, while a radial shockwave can be used for less severe conditions and superficial tissue.
