The innovative shock wave technique (ESWT)

Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that utilizes the power of shockwaves to stimulate tissues and reduce pain in the affected area. ESWT has been used for more than 30 years and is one of the most effective treatment options for the widest range of musculoskeletal conditions.

  • The treatment is extracorporeal, meaning it is applied externally to the wound. However, it penetrates deep into the tissues with high-intensity and high-frequency sound waves, which help relieve pain and activate the body's natural healing mechanisms.
  • In the context of continuous development and evolution in the field of physiotherapy, FisioLab was equipped with Swiss-made shock wave technology from the company Storz Medical, so that you receive the best treatment experience and immediately feel the therapeutic results.

The advantages of shock waves

Clinical studies conducted over 30 years have proven that the treatment:

  • Stimulates the body's natural healing action
  • Increases blood flow and reduces inflammation in the affected area
  • Promotes the growth of new, healthy tissues
  • It affects the cell membrane and prevents the sensors from producing the sensation of pain.
  • Helps the body's natural healing process
  • Enhances the release of endorphins, which help relieve pain
  • Restores mobility
  • It has high success rates, over 75%-90%

Although it only lasts 10-30 minutes, the treatment effectively helps repair bones, tendons and other soft tissues of the body. The results, in addition to the gradual relief of symptoms and pain reduction, even help to avoid surgery.

How is the treatment applied?

Before applying the shock waves, we locate the exact point of pain through X-ray, ultrasound or palpation. During the treatment, we apply a cool gel to the affected area and then place the piston of the device on it, which emits high-frequency waves. The intensity of the frequency of the waves depends on the type of condition and the degree of severity.

Are there any side effects?

No. After the treatment you may notice mild irritation or swelling. Don't worry. These symptoms usually subside after a few hours. The important thing is that you will feel immediate pain relief and greater mobility in the area that will improve daily, as the sessions act cumulatively, even after the sessions are completed.

Why start shockwave therapy?

If you suffer from musculoskeletal pain, you know that it is debilitating, both physically and psychologically. It is also a factor that prevents you from enjoying the joy of sports or performing your daily tasks. We understand that your daily life is full of obligations and that you do not have the luxury of recovery time. Don't worry. Shockwave therapy:

  • It is non-invasive and does not require injections or incisions.
  • It lasts in most cases 12-30 minutes and is painless.
  • It relieves pain immediately, after 1-2 sessions.
  • It does not require interruption of your daily activities, like an operation.
  • It targets exclusively the point of pain.
  • It has excellent results in acute cases or chronic conditions.
  • It is a treatment free from the use of drugs or anesthetics.
