Urology Treatment Shockwave Machine for Erectile Dysfunction Treating
Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that involves creating a series of low energy acoustic wave pulsations that are directly applied to an injury through a person's skin via a gel medium. The concept and technology originally evolved from the discovery that focused sound waves were capable of breaking down kidney and gallstones. Generated shockwaves have proven successful in a number of scientific studies for the treatment of chronic conditions. Shockwave therapy is its own treatment for a lingering injury, or pain resulting from illness. You don't need painkillers with it - the purpose of the therapy is to trigger the body's own natural healing response. Many people report that their pain is reduced and mobility improved after the first treatment.
How does shockwave therapy work?
Shockwave therapy is a modality that is becoming more common in physiotherapy. Using a much lower energy than in medical applications, shockwave therapy, or extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT), is used in the treatment of many musculoskeletal conditions, primarily those involving connective tissues such as ligaments and tendons.
WHAT CAN IT BE USED FOR?
Shockwave therapy can be used for a wide variety of sports injuries and musculoskeletal conditions and particularly those involving the areas of the body where connective tissues attaches to the bone. For example:
• Plantar Fasciitis and heel spurs
• Achilles tendonitis
• Patellar tendonitis
• Shin pain/splints
• Rotator cuff tendonitis and calcification
• Trochanteric bursitis (hip)
• Tennis elbow and Golfers elbow
• Muscles- various trigger points and tension
• Bones- non-union stress fractures

Chronic tendinopathy
Overuse and acute injury may cause chronic inflammation of the tendon (known as tendinopathy). Although it is most common in the Achilles tendon, this condition may occur throughout the body. Patients usually experience symptom relief within three to five treatments.
Medial tibial stress syndrome
Repetitive stress to the shin area, typically due to walking or running on hard or uneven surfaces, often causes pain and inflammation. Shockwave therapy gets you back on your feet twice as quickly as traditional RICE therapy (rest, ice, compression, elevation).
Insertional tendinitis
Inflammation of the Achilles tendon typically occurs due to calcification or a bone spur. RPW increases blood flow to the area to speed healing and reduce pain.
Tennis Elbow
Traditional treatments for epicondylitis, commonly known as tennis elbow, include steroid injections and pain medications. Neither offers a permanent solution. In addition, pain medications are highly addictive and should be avoided whenever possible. Shockwave therapy offers permanent pain relief in only a few sessions.
Shockwave therapy is a medical treatment that utilizes ultrasound technology to send high-energy acoustic waves into the target area to stimulate the body's natural healing abilities. At the most basic level, shockwave therapy stimulates new cell growth. These new, healthy cells replace old, weak, or damaged cells.
