Product Overview
Next-Generation Shock Wave Therapy
All the important control elements have been integrated into the handpiece. Frequency and energy level can be adjusted directly at the handpiece.
The easy replacement of the cylindrical coil is another advantage for the user as it saves revision time and costs.
The optional 10" touch screen expands with valuable features: Functions and indications can be selected and accepted by tapping on the screen. The software includes a retrievable patient management system as well as treatment parameters recommended by experienced users and supported by videos and images.
WHAT IS ESWT?
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) – An innovative method for pain treatment
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT for short) is a non-invasive option for the treatment of various pains and diseases of the musculoskeletal system. ESWT has been used successfully in orthopedic pain therapy since the beginning of the 1990s. The shock waves used are short sound pulses that can penetrate water and soft tissue. The shock waves are generated outside the body (»extracorporeally«) in the handpiece of the device and transmitted into the patient's body by means of ultrasound gel, where they have a targeted effect on the painful areas.

Shock waves defined: patient information
Shock waves are high-energy, audible sound waves. They are characterised by a rapid increase in pressure and a short pulse length. They occur in our everyday lives, for example, when aircraft break the sound barrier.
The treatment: How does shock wave treatment proceed?
The therapist first conducts a detailed medical history interview with the patient to learn about the history of the symptoms and to gain important additional information by asking specific questions. In addition, the pain zone is localised by palpation.
