Intelect Focus Shockwave
Intelect Focus Shockwave The New Focus Shockwave: Greater Power & Depth for Better Treatment
In Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT), a wave is produced by a small explosion generated underwater inside an ‘applicator’. This wave is focused through a lens and transmitted into the tissue. The focused shockwave can be electromagnetically generated; it has high energy, around one hundred times more powerful than a Radial Pressure Wave, making it optimum for a range of conditions in urology, orthopaedic indications, cardiology and neurology.
Deep therapy regions can be treated safely and reliably with focused shock waves. The large focal zone provides enhanced targeting precision.

The Focus Shockwave has the capability of reaching 1000 bar, offering greater flexibility and potency than RPW units. The 3 standoff heads allow for customised, patient-specific treatment. The penetration depth means that even deep-rooted problems can be addressed.
Focus Shockwave treatment has been thoroughly researched and documented. Here are some clinical studies that support the efficacy of the treatment: Frairia R, Berta L., Biological effects of extracorporeal shock waves on fibroblasts. A review., Muscles Ligaments Tendons J. 2012 Apr 1;1(4):138-47. Mani-Babu S, Morrissey D, Waugh C, Screen H, Barton C, The effectiveness of extracorporeal shock wave therapy in lower limb tendinopathy: a systematic review., Am J Sports Med. 2015 Mar;43(3):752-61. Gerdesmeyer L, Mittermayr R, Fuerst M, Al Muderis M, Thiele R, Saxena A, Gollwitzer H, Current evidence of extracorporeal shock wave therapy in chronic Achilles tendinopathy., Int J Surg. 2015 Aug 29.

Targeted Pain Relief
Shockwaves are used to treat a wide range of pathologies in areas such as bone healing, Tendinoapathies, muscular trigger points/myofascial pain, dermatology, wound healing, spasticity and impotence (erectile dysfunction). It can be easier to find deeper, painful, diffuse trigger points with shockwave therapy than with palpation.
Due to the high energy levels of the Focus Shockwave we recommend ultrasound imaging before treatment.
Epicondylitis
Calcific tendinitis
Tibial stress syndrome
Heel spur
Patellar tendinitis
Trapezius muscle
Achillodynia
Plantar fasciitis
Focused Treatment
F-SW – focused shock waves Focused shock waves are preferably used in the treatment of deep target areas. The extracorporeal, focused shockwave permits precise diagnosis and therapy of active latent trigger points. Focused Shockwaves can penetrate approximately 12 cm with pinpoint focus.
Breaking things down Unlike the Radial Pressure Wave, the Focus Shockwave's power allows it to disintegrate calcifications, stones, and growths as well as providing the standard benefits of shockwave therapy:
1) Activation of the Healing Cascade 2) Enhanced Blood Flow 3) Tissue Regeneration
3 Standoffs For Tailored Treatment The standoffs provide treatment options. The shorter the standoff head, the more powerful the shockwave and the greater the penetration depth. The longer the head, the more precise the focal zone.
