The Acoustic wave therapy, or named as radial extracorpealshockwave therapy, radial extracorporeal shockwave therapy,Tendinitis of the shoulder, Calcific tendinitis of the shoulder,Patellar tendinitis, Patellar tendinopathy, Plantar fasciitis,Radial extracorporeal shockwave therapy, Plantar Fascitis with orwithout Heel Spur, Epicondylitis, For Cellulite treatment, Bodyreshaping and firming, slimming treatment
BS-SWT2T RSWT systemadopts Radial shockwave therapy (RSWT), which is a method forthe treatment of superficial orthopedic disorders developed overthe past 20 years. A great deal of experience and a large number ofstudy reports by users has now confirmed its efficacy. The extrememethod of using bundled sound waves with high intensity wasselected because the mechanical/acoustic waves of force can befocused at a defined point with a parabolic reflector to ensurethat stress limits are not exceeded in the remaining tissue.Depending on the geometry of the lens the focus is 7 to 14 cm fromthe shockwave source.
The focused shockwaves were initially only used experimentally forsuperficial orthopedic problems such as calcification (heel spursand impingement) and therapy-resistant tendon and insertionconditions.Thereare two probable primary effects: 1. Direct reaction to themechanical stimulation 2. Indirect stimulation triggering cellularand biochemical processes based on triggering a reactivesystem.
Radial extracorpeal shockwave therapy system BS-SWT2T is forphysiotherapy targets, as Radial and ulnar epicondylitis Tendinitisof the shoulder, Calcific tendinitis of the shoulder, Status postmuscular injury, Patellar tendinitis, Patellar tendinopathy,Achillodynia, Plantar fasciitis, Heel spurs, Myofascial triggerpoint therapy e.g neck, Myofascial trigger point therapy e.g. back,muscular back pain, Trochanteric bursitis, Periostitis / shinsplints (Condition after overload), Dupuytren''s disease, Thumbbasal joint arthritis / rhizarthritis.
Applications:
1. Normalisation of the muscle tone through stimulation of themuscle spindle and the Golgi apparatus of the muscletendon
2. Pain overlay based on the gate-control principle (Melzack andWall) with parallel endorphin release by the stimulation of theskin''s pressure and touch receptors
3. Stimulation of cellular activity and changes in cell-membranepermeability caused by direct mechanical stress in the cellwall
4. Internal cellular building processes for reinforcement of themechanical structure as a consequence of the mechanical stress atthe limit of stress capacityt
5. Increased cellular metabolism due to changes in the membranepermeability, e.g. by opening the glutamate channels
6. Release of substance P, a neurotransmitter and pain mediator,into the tissue with subsequent nerve habituation and with thatreduction of the pain threshold
7. Release of AGF and VGF (growth hormones) with corresponding cellreaction
8. Increased cellular activity via gene expression
9. Initially uncomfortable to painful, it generally results inprompt habituation with good tolerance of the appliedshockwave
10. There is generally a significant reduction in pain immediatelyafter the treatment
11. The range of motion is increased
12. The muscle tone is normalised
13. Previously palpable myogeloses have become relaxed
