BTL SWT shock wave therapy is a non-invasive modern solution for the elimination of chronic pain in the musculoskeletal system. It is used in physiotherapy, orthopedics and sports medicine. In chronic diseases of muscles and tendons, such as: painful shoulder syndrome, tennis / golfer’s elbow, back pain, achilles tendon pain, tendinitis, trigger points and others. The high energy of the shock wave has an impact on the body’s tissues, leading to a multidimensional impact, including: neovascularization, acceleration of the removal of metabolic products, stimulation of collagen and dissolution of calcified fibroblasts. The action in this area provides excellent conditions for accelerated regeneration, thanks to which the proper functioning of the body is restored and pain relief.
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Shock waves are acoustic waves that transfer energy into an area
covered by pain in the musculoskeletal system with subacute conditions and
chronic. Thanks to the supplied energy, healing and regeneration processes take place
soft tissues.
THERAPEUTIC EFFECTS:
– REDUCTION OF MUSCLE TENSION
Congestion is one of the primary effects of shockwave therapy.
Provides better nutrition for hypertonic muscles, tendons and structures
ligamentous. Moreover, there is also a weakening of the pathological interactions
between actin and myosin. This leads to a reduction in muscle tone.
– ACCELERATE HEALING INCREASE COLLAGEN PRODUCTION
The production of an adequate amount of collagen is a necessary prerequisite in the process of rebuilding damaged structures of the musculoskeletal system.
– ACCELERATION OF METABOLISM AND MICROCIRCULATION
SWT technology accelerates the removal of nociceptive metabolites, increases oxygenation and improves the supply of energy sources to the damaged tissue. It supports the removal of histamine, lactic acid and other irritating substances – most of them acidic.
