Shock Wave Therapy

One of the most modern and efficient rehabilitation modalities.

Our center’s shockwave equipment uses softshot technology which produces blast waves through accelerated and controlled shocks.

Additionally, softshot technology transmits the same amount of kinetic energy as regular equipment, BUT it is more comfortable for the patient.

Benefits from shockwave application

Benefits after a few minutes/hours of treatment
Blast waves:

  • - Stimulate superficial nerve endings and achieve pain reduction (gate control theory)
  • - Change extracellular environment, thus releasing pain inhibitory substances.
  • - Stimulate the production and release of endorphins that reduce central sensitization and increase pain tolerance

Benefits after a few hours of treatment:
Automated body healing mechanisms are activated.
