Radial Shock Wave

Radial Shock Wave

Radial Shock WAVE is a type of shock wave therapy in which energy impulses spread radially, meaning they are expanding outward from the point of application, much like the waves formed by a stone thrown into water. This technology is particularly effective for superficially located tissues, muscles and tendons. The applicator is placed over the affected area, after which the impulses penetrate the tissues and stimulate blood circulation, break down calcifications and activate the body's natural recovery processes. Radial Shock WAVE is widely used in the treatment of tendinopathies, plantar fasciitis, trigger points and chronic muscle pain. The therapy is safe, non-invasive and delivers visible results even after the first few sessions.

The key difference between Radial Shock WAVE and Focused Shock WAVE lies in the way energy is distributed. While Radial Shock WAVE acts superficially and diffusely, spreading energy across a wider area, Focused Shock WAVE concentrates all of its power at a specific point at greater depth, making it a more precise tool for treating deeply located and more severe injuries.
