Shock wave

Currently NEW on offer

Pressure wave therapy is used as a very effective and at the same time gentle method for a wide range of musculoskeletal complaints requiring treatment.

An impulse, generated by a magnetic coil, is transmitted to the local problem areas, where they activate the healing process and begin the therapeutic effect.

The treatment does not require local anesthesia. The dosage is adjusted according to the patient’s perception of pain. Depending on the indication, 3-5 sessions are performed.

Already after the 2nd unit there is a significant improvement of the pain pattern.
Not only for chronic pain in the neck, shoulder and back, but for all painful joints, shock wave brings very good results.
Neuropathic pain and spasticity can be markedly improved with shock wave.
This treatment method is also used for open, poorly healing wounds, and due to the activating effect of cell regeneration, there is also the possibility of cellulite therapy and skin tightening.

In our clinic we use magnetically induced extracorporeal shock waves (focused and radial) combined with various applicators depending on the need.

We can thus treat muscular trigger points, but also act on skin, nerves, tissues, joints and bones as needed.

We create the appropriate treatment concept for each patient!!!

Frequently asked questions

It is a non-invasive treatment method in which high-energy pressure waves hit the body and start their effect there.
An extracorporeal shock wave has originated outside the body. (EWST)

Radial shock wave: acts on the surface of the skin, and a maximum of a few millimeters in depth. In physiotherapy, this option is applied.
Focused shock wave: may be performed only by the specialist with special certificate. The penetration depth is much deeper and more precise.

The pressure wave triggers self-regeneration due to the mechanical stimuli. It will be about
Biochemical reactions stimulated blood circulation and metabolism of the tissue.
This effect of self-regeneration offers very many possibilities of treatment.
The first positive effects are noticeable after 2-3 weeks. The shock wave is
not a fast-acting therapy, but long-lasting.

Shock wave therapy is a low-risk form of treatment; in detail, it can lead to

  • Hematomas
  • Short-term worsening of the pain situation
  • Children, teenagers, pregnant women
  • Blood clotting disorder
  • Infections
  • Malignant tumors
  • Pacemaker

In the classic indications there is a treatment success of about 70 – 80% and significant pain reduction.
