Deep shock wave therapy is a non-invasive physiotherapy treatment method that effectively promotes the rehabilitation of injuries and problems of the musculoskeletal system using mechanical waves. The energy of shock waves spreads into the depth of the tissue, where it stimulates blood circulation, initiates regenerative processes and accelerates the healing of damaged tissue. Deep shock waves are used to treat degenerative and calcifying changes in the musculoskeletal system. In this way, we cause controlled micro-damage to the painful or inflamed area and thus influence the accelerated healing of damaged, inflamed and painful structures of the body. Most often, this involves calcifications in the tendons of the shoulder joint, degenerative-inflammatory changes in the tendon attachment in tennis elbow and problems with the Achilles tendon. According to recent research, ESWT has a pain-relieving regenerative effect and an immediate analgesic and anti-inflammatory effect on tissues.
We are the only physiotherapy on the coast that has a combination of radial and focal shock waves. We are a specialized clinic for breaking down calcifications on tendons.
The combination of these is most effective in treating calcifications.
The best results are achieved when combining F-ESWT and R-ESWT therapy, as it allows for optimal and faster effects, a wider range of indications, and the possibility of treating deeper tissues.
F-ESWT-High-energy focused pulse or wave that develops very quickly; dynamic energy range from 0.01 to 0.55mJ/mm2 (max62MPa) - the pressure in a single pulse increases to several hundred or even a thousand bars and then drops in a short time unit of one microsecond; therapeutic depth of about 65mm, and frequency from 1-8Hz. The amount of energy that enters the tissue through a large surface area of the skin reduces the painful sensation.
R-ESWT-Low-energy radial pulse. These are shock waves of mechanical origin and are generated in the handpiece, where compressed air causes the projectile to travel up and down the tube and hit the wave transmitter or applicator. Upon impact, the shock waves spread radially outwards within the body. The therapeutic effect of radial waves reaches a depth of 2-6cm
Vendo therapy begins with focal shock waves for diagnosis, localization and local treatment. We continue with radial shock waves, which are more suitable for treating larger areas, relaxing muscle groups, activating connective tissue and treating "trigger points".
Indications for combination therapy:
Contraindications for therapy:
In our clinic, we are extremely effective with this treatment method, and patients are satisfied with the course of treatment. For optimal success of the treatment, five treatments are usually required. The strength of the waves is adjusted to the individual according to their pain threshold. The number and strength of the waves depend on the diagnosis and the area being treated. Pain reduction occurs after the third or fourth therapy, and the success of the treatment is assessed approximately a month after the end of the treatment.
