SHOCKWAVE 2000 - Med Line

The SHOCKWAVE 2000 - Med Line from Globus is a modern radial shockwave therapy system that applies high-energy acoustic pulses to promote the body's natural healing process . The method is non-invasive and exerts controlled mechanical pressure on the target tissue with the goal of reducing inflammation , modulating pain , and supporting tissue regeneration .

Mechanism of action

By inducing mechanotransduction , radial pressure waves stimulate, among other things, neoangiogenesis (capillary sprouting), modulate pro- and anti-inflammatory signaling pathways, and can desensitize myofascial trigger points . Clinically, this results in an improvement of tendinopathies , fascial dysfunctions , and musculoskeletal pain syndromes.
