The basic science is analogous to lithotripsy, the technology that uses high-energy sound waves (shockwaves) to break up kidney stones without surgery. The technique of using shockwaves to break up kidney stones has been around for nearly a quarter century now, and doctors are using this technology to treat other painful areas of the body.
This modern and highly effective treatment method introduces the high-energy sound waves into the painful areas of the body. With this innovative therapy approach, Shockwave Therapy accelerates the healing process in the body by stimulating the metabolism and enhancing blood circulation to regenerate damaged tissue.
