The recent introduction of extra-corporeal shock-waves therapy changed the general approach to several important pathologies of bone but also particularly of tendons and muscles. CONTROLLED

A quite large focus, such as the emission mode delivered thanks to the patented applicators, allows the operator to cover a quite large area from the surface to the deepest tissues without provoking bad feeling to the patient. Furthermore, thanks to the quite large focuse, any sonography or rx system is needed.

Unfocused (or radial) shock-waves therapy are useful for treating superficial parts such as muscles or for performing treatment over the trigger and/or tender points. Often, during each application, it is useful to combine controlled focused mode for deepest tissues to unfocused (radial) mode for stimulating local vasodilation and reducing pain.
Shock-waves emission is keeping homogeneous for few centimetres and those linear shock-.waves are useful for performing treatment over cellulite. Blood flow is improving, local vascolarization, molecular destabilization of trigliceridis are made thanks to the cavitation action of shock-waves.
POSITIVE RESULTS
The feedback coming from the clinical experiences are referring about more than 70% positive results. Dimensions of focus and features of the emission modes allow to treat without hard pain every patient and every pathology. ● Epicondilytis and epitrocleitis ● Shoulder pathologies,
insertional tendonitis, impingement, frozen shoulder ● Fascicitis and calcanear spur ● Rotuleos tendonitis ● Pubalgia ● Achille’s tendonitis ● Bursitis, contractures, and elongations ● Pseudoarthrosis and consolidation delay of small articulations ● IPP 8
