How Can It Help?
Shockwave therapy is currently one of the most effective treatments of calcifications. In this treatment, acoustic waves cause disruption of the calcified entities and support their resorption and elimination by the body. Shockwave therapy decreases the length of a treatment and provides faster relief in chronic pains.
SWT (Shockwave Therapy) is a multidisciplinary device that is mostly used in orthopedics, sports medicine, veterinary, urology, and physiotherapy. SWT is capable of getting rid of pain without patients taking painkillers. It is considered by many as the fastest therapy that offers pain relief and mobility restoration. In Shockwave Therapy, acoustic waves interact with damaged tissues, which then accelerate the tissue repair and cell growth, analgesia and mobility restoration.
