Focused shockwave therapy

A non-invasive therapeutic procedure to stimulate a local biological response in the treated area by means of directional acoustic wave action. The biological response includes: reduction of pain, muscle relaxation, increased blood microcirculation, improved metabolism and trophism, and the effect of neovascularization.

Focused waves reach a greater depth than radial waves and provide more energy transfer, which makes them ideal for treating deeper conditions. Device for conducting : BTL-6000 FSWT
