Air Pressure Shockwave Physiotherapy Machine Muscle Stimulator Pain Treatment

Extracorporal air pressure shock wave machine muscle stimulator pain treatment

Shockwave Therapy can be used to treat a wide variety of musculoskeletal conditions, in particular, those involving areas where major connective tissue attaches to the bone. Common areas that can be successfully treated are:

Foot – plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis

Knee – patellar tendinitis and shin pain

Elbow – tennis or golfer’s elbow

Shoulder – rotator cuff tendinitis and calcific

Hip – trochanteric bursitis

Muscles – various trigger points throughout the body

Except for pain relief, shockwave therapy can be used for ED (erectile dysfunction) treatment.

Shockwave Advantages:

1. High effectiveness, fast relieves pain.

2. Effective for erectile dysfunction treatment

3. Noninvasive, no anesthetic, convenient and fast

4. Each nursing only 20-30 minutes, 5-10 nursing each session.

5. Widely applied to different soft tissue treatments.

The effects of shockwave occur across several levels:
1. Cell Level Change – boost the release of the chemical substances that help to prevent pain and inflammation.
2. Blood Flow Change – stimuluate new blood flow into the affected area which improves soft tissue healing and regeneration.
3. Muscle Tone Reduction – reduces the contractile activity of muscle, break patterns of neuro-cognitive pain, effectively decreases muscle tone and spasm
4. Pain Reduction – directly affect the nerve fibres that transmit pain signals to our brain

5. Fat Reduction - effective unwanted fat removal
