Similar to sound waves, shock waves are high-energy pressure waves with healing properties in terms of energy, speed of rise and propagation. The rhythmic concentration of the shock waves deep in the body leads to the disruption of calcifications, which are ground into fine particles and excreted again through the circulatory system. This technique is ideal for treating tendon problems such as calcified shoulders, heel spurs or tennis elbow. In our practice, we use the latest generation of focused shockwave therapy, which uses the piezoelectric effect enabling the therapy focus to be addressed precisely without scattering effects.
