The principle is that the high-intensity focused shock wave energy generated by the shockwave generator enters specific deep tissues through the skin surface effectively stimulates the affected tissue and accelerates the growth of new blood vessels and blood circulation, and induces a new inflammatory process thereby awakening the cel's self-repair function. In addition, the effect of vaporization bubble burst generated by focused shock waves destroys the adhesion, scarring, contracture and blockage of the damaged tendon area, and even the calcified or fibrotic soft tissue, which is commonly known as loosening the injured part of the body, to stimulate the soft tissue to grow again, accelerate blood circulation and promote recovery. At the same time, high-energy shockwaves can stimulate pain nerve receptors and block the conduction of pain signals, achieving an immediate analgesic effect.

Biological effects produced by shock waves on the human body

When shock waves act on tissues, the gas in the tissues expands and collapses

at an extremely fast speed. When the bubbles collapse, there is a high-speed

micro-jet phenomenon, accompanied by a rapid expansion of the bubble

volume, producing a cavitation effect, causing local microcapillary rupture in the

tissue, leakage of blood and cell media, generation of free radicals, and

stimulation of new blood vessel formation, dredging occluded microvessels,

accelerating microcirculation at the treatment site, improving local blood

circulation, and loosening the adhesion of soft tissues

Piezoelectric effect

As a mechanical force, shock waves act on bone tissue, first increasing the

stress of bone tissue and generating polarization potential, causing piezoelectric

effect. It can accelerate healing, promote the production of collagen, promote

metabolism and microcirculation, and the formation of new blood vessels in

ligaments, and stimulate the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts,

thereby promoting bone healing and playing an osteogenic role

Metabolic activation effect

By acting on local diseased tissues, the blood supply at this place is increased,

bringing new growth factors, and inducing stem cells to transform into normal

tissue structures, reducing the inflammatory reaction and edema at the affected

area, and accelerating recovery

Analgesic effect

High-intensity shock waves have extremely strong stimulation on nerve endings,

reducing nerve sensitivity and unable to conduct pain signals. Changes in free

radicals around cells release substances that suppress pain and increase the

pain threshold, thereby relieving pain.

Application in sports medicine:

In the field of sports medicine, focused shock wave machines are also widely

used in the treatment of sports injuries and the improvement of sports

performance. By promoting tissue repair and blood circulation, the focused

shock wave machine helps athletes recover faster and at the same time

improve the performance level of athletes. Shock wave treatment is especially

suitable for athletes who need to return to the sports field quickly, enabling them

to deal with injuries and restore the ability to engage in high-intensity activities

faster.
