Shockwave has the characteristics of low frequency and long wavelength, so it has unique physical characteristics,
such as small attenuation, long propagation, strong penetration, etc. So that the sound wave is easy to propagate in
the human body, and then reach to the lesion locations that are difficult to reach with general instruments. Shockwave
carries the pressure energy and directivity, so that when it propagates in the different tissues of the body, stress action
is produced at the interface of different tissues. The vibration energy is continually absorbed by the medium and converted
into heat energy, which increases the temperature of the medium. This can improve tissue nutrition, promote blood
circulation and tissue function regeneration, reduce the tension of muscle and connective tissues, relieve spasm,
reduce nerve excitability, play a role in analgesia, and more.
Shock wave therapy Physiotherapy
The shockwave is a non-invasive, non-anesthetic, convenient and fast therapy method and is widely used in
various soft tissue treatments as shown below, but not limited.
1. Erectile Dysfunction: Inability to achieve or maintain an erection.
2. Tennis elbow: Or lateral epicondylitis, is located on the outer portion of the elbow.
3. Plantar fasciitis: Inflammation of the plantar fascia, tissue in the foot used during walking and foot movement.
4. Achillodynia: Painful irritation of the achilles tendon.
5. Patellar Tendinitis: Injury to the tendon connecting kneecap (patella) to shinbone.
6. Bursitis trochanterica: Painful periostitis of the hip.
7. Tibial edge syndrome: Inflammation of the tibial edge due to excessive strain.
8. Shoulder pain with or without calcification: Painful limitation of shoulder movement.
Shockwave Therapy for Erectile Dysfunction (ED)
SWT can effectively treat ED, painless and without side effects. Many erectile dysfunction is caused
by vascular problems that the vessels can not supply enough blood to the carvernous body of the penis,
resulting in a diminished ability to develop and maintain an erection. The shockwave has the efficient
effects of stimulating more blood vessel regrowth and improving blood circulation.
How Ultrasound Physical Therapy Works
The ultrasound machine works by sending an electric current through crystals found in the ultrasound probe — also known
as the ultrasound wand. The probe vibrates, causing waves to travel through the skin to the body underneath. The waves
transfer energy to the tissues to cause the desired effects. Ultrasound can also be focused on tissues deep within your body
without affecting other tissues close to the surface.
The frequency and intensity of the ultrasound, the duration of the procedure, and the area of its application all determine
how ultrasound physical therapy is done.
