EMS Dolorclast Shockwave Therapy

What are the benefits of shock wave therapy?

Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) is the application of Shock Waves in medicine.

It is clinically proven that pressure waves, when applied to injured tissues, stimulate metabolic reactions:

Reduction of pain felt by nerve fibres
Increase of blood circulation in surrounding soft tissues
Beginning of healing process triggered by stem cells activation

Red chili peppers contain capsaicin. At first this substance overwhelms the so-called C nerve fibers responsible for transmitting pain but then disables them for an extended period of time.

Everybody knows the feeling – first, the mouth is on fire, then it feels completely numb. Research has indicated that shock wave therapy works the same way1.

Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) uses acoustic pulses to treat certain musculoskeletal disorders. It is a well-studied and commonly used treatment modality for a variety of musculoskeletal conditions. Radial Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (rESWT) is used successfully for:

Superficial indications, such as Plantar fasciopathy, Achilles tendinopathy, medial tibial stress syndrome, greater trochanteric pain syndrome, etc.
1st choice to address calcaneal tendinopathies & entesopathies, fasciopathies, myotendinous tears, muscular pathologies, trigger points and spastic tissues.
Sub-acute or chronic pathologies
