Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy, or shock wave therapy, is an advanced method for stimulating regeneration and healing of affected tissues. It uses acoustic wave impulses to stimulate circulation and the body's natural recovery processes, reducing pain and inflammation. Benefits include alleviating chronic pain, accelerating muscle regeneration, treating tendinitis and soft tissue injuries, as well as improving mobility of affected joints.

Reduces pain
Shock wave therapy reduces pain in the short and long term, stimulating endorphin release and alleviating pain at its source.
Accelerates healing
Stimulates tissue regeneration and increases blood flow in the treated area, significantly accelerating the healing process.
Effective for chronic pain
Useful for tendinitis, plantar fasciitis, and epicondylitis injuries, providing significant results in treating chronic pain.
Sports recovery
Frequently used in sports medicine to accelerate recovery after injuries and prevent recurrences.
How does Shockwave therapy work?
Shockwave therapy emits high-intensity acoustic waves that penetrate affected tissues, causing controlled microtrauma that stimulates the body's natural healing. This process increases blood flow, releases natural pain relievers (such as endorphins), and activates cellular regeneration. As a result, inflammation decreases, collagen fibers regenerate, and tissue elasticity improves, providing pain relief and increased mobility from the first sessions.
This therapy is popular due to its rapid and efficient effects in treating chronic pain, tendinitis, plantar fasciitis, and joint conditions. Being non-invasive, the therapy reduces the risk of complications and recovery time, offering a safe and effective alternative for returning to daily activities.
Therapeutic Indications
Shockwave therapy has multiple indications, being effective in treating musculoskeletal conditions and chronic pain. Here are the main recommendations:
- Tendinitis and overuse injuries - Recommended for treating inflammation and pain caused by tendinitis, such as epicondylitis and patellar tendinitis, accelerating the healing process.
- Heel spurs (Calcaneal exostosis) - Recommended for reducing pain and inflammation caused by heel spurs, a chronic condition of the heel, often resulting from prolonged pressure and intense strain.
- Plantar fasciitis - Effective in reducing pain and inflammation for people suffering from plantar fasciitis, a painful heel condition caused by overloading.
- Back and cervical pain - Can help alleviate chronic back and neck pain associated with muscle contractions and overloading of these areas.
- Calcifications and pathological ossifications - Used to reduce calcifications in soft structures and to treat areas where inappropriate ossifications have formed, such as in frozen shoulder syndrome.
- Sports recovery - Frequently used in athletes' recovery, helping with rapid healing of muscle injuries and reducing stiffness, being an effective treatment for muscle strains and traumatic injuries.
- Joint pain and stiffness - The therapy helps improve joint mobility, being recommended for patients suffering from joint stiffness caused by arthritis or other degenerative conditions.
- Improving mobility and quality of life - Used to increase mobility and comfort for patients with chronic conditions, offering them a solution for maintaining an active lifestyle.
These indications highlight the effectiveness of Shockwave therapy in managing and treating a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions.
Although Shockwave therapy offers numerous benefits and is widely used by medical rehabilitation specialists worldwide, there are still some situations where it is not recommended. The main contraindications include the presence of malignant tumors, deep vein thrombosis, acute infections, pregnancy, recent fractures, and severe blood coagulation disorders. It is essential that the therapy be applied by a qualified medical professional to adapt the procedure to the specific needs of each case.
Efficient technology
The Intelect RPW Lite medical device from Chattanooga works by emitting high-pressure acoustic waves (1-4 bars) and adjustable frequency (1-15 Hz), which penetrate tissues, stimulating circulation and cellular regeneration.
Its efficiency is due to several factors, such as fine adjustability of pressure and frequency, interchangeable heads for precise application at various depths and body areas, as well as preset programs based on clinical practices, thus ensuring treatment efficiency.
