Shock Wave Therapy
Shockwave therapy is a 15-20 min non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic waves to promote healing and improve tissue regeneration. For rehabilitation, it can help reduce pain and enhance mobility by stimulating blood flow and breaking down scar tissue. In aesthetic treatments, shockwave therapy can reduce cellulite and improve skin texture by boosting collagen production. It’s generally quick, requires no downtime, and can be a valuable addition to your recovery or beauty regimen.

Plantar Fascia
Mechanotransduction of signal
The process by which the cells convert the mechanical stimuli (shock waves) into a chemical response, activating the fibroblasts and increasing the density of the collagen and elastin fibers, due to the production of neocollagen and neoelastin.

Tendonitis
Release of growth factors VEGF, eNOS and of BMPs
These factors aid in the healing of tendinopathies in tendinous insertions and stimulate the release of angiogenic factors and in neovascularization, which improves local blood flow accelerating healing of tendon and bones.

Skin Tighting
Remodeling of the collagen
The traction of the collagen fibers in the skin incites the rearrangement by the movement of the applicator, and improves the malleability of the collagen.

Facial Rejuvination
Elimination of toxins and increase of lymphatic flow
Activation of the lymphatic system, which accelerates the transport of metabolites of the extracellular matrix and causes the lymphatic drainage to reduce the edema and promote the fast regeneration of the tissues.
