Pneumatic Shockwave FX-S26
Price: 3,200 USD
Pneumatic shockwave therapy machine
Increasing frequency affects the depth of wave penetration (as lower frequency waves travel further than higher frequency waves). As can be seen high frequency waves travel less distance.
Heads: 11 (13) different size shock head
Handle: 2G, up to 2 000 000 shots
Efficiency: Physiotherapy machine
Energy: 1 - 6 BAR
Function: Reduce pain relief
Application: Body \ Waist \ Breast \ Foot \ Neck ...
Frequency 1 - 16 Hz
Shockwave Advantages:
Radial shockwave effects fall into three broad categories:
Destruction of tissue
Healing (increased)
Decrease of pain
Although the settings of the machines vary for each type of effect required, a description of these settings can be seen here, each shock wave will have some of each of these effects around each wave i.e. a shockwave at the highest settings (to create damage) will always have an area around the wave where there will be less energy and hence some of the other effects. An example of this can be seen in the positive part of the radial shockwave below:
Imagine the red is the area of energy that will create damage. This area goes from the bottom of the shock to the top as a column damaging everything in it's way. Around this column is an area of less energy, seen in green, which would be of a dosage able to create healing. There would also be an area, shown in blue, of much less energy able to decrease pain. There is also an area where the wave force would decrease above the area of damage (the energy can't continue forever) which in turn would have healing or pain relieving effects. It needs to be remembered that the effects happen at high to low energy levels i.e. high levels = damage + healing + pain relief. Middle levels = healing + pain relief
