Powerful, user-friendly shockwave device
The Primo Radial Shockwave 560 is a radial shockwave device that generates extracorporeal shockwaves using an electromagnetic projectile mechanism. The kinetic energy generated in the shockwave applicator is converted into impact waves at the skin's surface and distributed radially throughout the body with each pulse.
The energy impulse transmitted to the tissue is responsible for the therapeutic effect, which can modulate pain and relieve symptoms.
With the Primo Radial Shockwave 560, radial shockwave energy can be used to relieve pain and treat the following musculoskeletal conditions: plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, patella tendinopathy, lateral epicondylitis, and various other pathologies.
The Primo Radial Shockwave 560 is small, compact, portable, and lightweight. It is significantly quieter and produces less vibration than a conventional, compressor-driven shockwave device. The shockwave energy is generated by an electromechanical process. The advantage for the patient is a more pleasant experience during shockwave treatment.
The device includes various application recommendations for common symptoms, which are recognized by the British National Institute for Health & Clinical Excellence (NICE) as being suitable for shockwave therapy. The user also has the option of saving personalized settings. As with all EMSPhysio therapy devices , the Primo Radial Shockwave 560 is intuitive to use.
The design of the shockwave applicator makes it easier to hold and administer the treatment. It protects against adverse vibrations and avoids painful "trigger" positions that can occur when treatments are performed over a longer period of time. For the therapist, this has the advantage of reducing the strain on the patient during the application of the therapy.
The average treatment time with the device is approximately 10 minutes, and typically 4-6 treatments are required, depending on the specific condition. This also has a commercial impact. Practice owners should achieve better results with shock wave treatments. Due to higher patient turnover and recommendations from satisfied patients, the use of shock wave therapy is also worthwhile from a financial perspective.
"For the development of our Primo Radial Shockwave 560, we took the best of the shockwave devices on the market. Through many discussions with therapists and orthopedic surgeons, we were able to determine what users of shockwave therapy want in terms of design, functionality, and performance. The result is a device that is optimal for physiotherapists, chiropractors, osteopaths, and sports therapists in terms of size, function, and intuitive operation." James Greenham, Managing Director of EMS Physio
