Piezo Focus ShockWave
Introducing the Piezo ShockWave with focus to pinpoint the pain and treat at the source.
Piezo ShockWave is widely used in the treatment of acute and chronic pain in muscles, tendons and joints. It uses supersonic acoustic waves to target tissue at varying depths to compress and manipulate tissue resulting in a focused and precise deep acoustic target tissue. The results of the mechanical stimulus delivered by My ACT can lead to increased circulation and pain relief – key components in the healing process.

How long does treatment take?
Normally, 1-2 treatments per week are performed
A total of 6-8 treatments may be necessary before lasting improvement is achieved
Focus ShockWave with acute pain, a single session is often successful
Focused Therapy Source for Pin Point Treatments
The Piezo-Electric Principle offers an extensive range of configurations. The only one of its kind in the world, the PiezoWave2 allows users to choose between a classic focused therapy source and a linear focused soundwave.
Shockwave therapy is a multidisciplinary device used in orthopaedics, sports medicine, urology and veterinary medicine. Its main assets are fast pain relief and mobility restoration. Together with being a non-surgical therapy with no need for painkillers makes it an ideal therapy to speed up recovery and cure various indications causing acute or chronic pain.
MECHANISM OF ACTION
Shockwave is an acoustic wave which carries high energy to painful spots and myoskeletal tissues with subacute, subchronic and chronic conditions. The energy promotes regeneration and reparative processes of the bones, tendons and other soft tissues.

Explanation of PiezoWave ShockWave
PiezoWave ShockWave – Acoustic Compression Therapy which uses sound waves to REMODEL TISSUE AT THE CELLULAR LEVEL by addressing a large variety of conditions including, scar tissue, calcification, tendinopathy, bursitis, capsulations and so much more.
PiezoWave2 technology is based off the same conceptual technology as lithotripsy to break up kidney stones just with lower, more pinpoint energy. A good way to explain it to your patients is to think of a submarine at the bottom of the ocean, they cannot see in front of them so they send out sonar waves (sound waves) to find anything that may be in front of the submarine and when it finds something it sends a signal back to the sub. This is the same idea or concept with ShockWave.
The patient does not feel anything during treatments when you are over healthy or hydrated tissue. The patient will feel a dull aching feeling when you pass over any compromised tissue, making it easy to know that you are on the correct location so you can address the soft tissue injury directly.
One of many unique things about the Piezo Wave Shock Wave is that you get biomechanical feedback from the patient while doing the treatment so you know you have located the correct spot. When you find the compromised tissue the patient feels a dull aching feeling almost like a toothache or pushing on a bruise.
The kinetic energy of the projectile, created by compressed air, is transferred to the transmitter at the end of the applicator and further into the tissue.
Dissolution of Calcified Fibroblasts & Stimulation of Collagen Production
Calcium build-up is most often a result of micro-tears or other trauma to a tendon. Acoustic waves break up the existing calcifications. Shockwave therapy starts the biochemical decalcification of the calcium build-up of a toothpaste-like consistency and treats the tendon. The granular particles of calcium are then removed by the lymphatic system.
Reversal of Chronic Inflammation
Chronic inflammation occurs when the inflammatory response is not completely halted. It can damage healthy tissue and results in chronic pain. Mast cells are one of the key components of the inflammatory process. Their activity may be increased by using pervasive acoustic waves.
Mast cell activation is followed by the production of chemokines and cytokines. These pro-inflammatory compounds first enhance the inflammatory process and in the next step help restore normal healing and regenerative processes.
The production of a sufficient amount of collagen is a necessary precondition for the repair processes of the damaged myoskeletal and ligamentous structures. Shockwave therapy accelerates procollagen synthesis. The therapy forces the newly created collagen fibers into a longitudinal structure which makes the newly formed tendon fibers more dense and stiff and creates a firmer structure.
New Blood Vessel Formation
Nutrient blood flow is necessary to start and maintain the repair processes of damaged tissue structure. The application of acoustic waves creates capillary micro-ruptures in tendon and bone. Due to micro-ruptures the expression of growth factors such as eNOS, VEGF, PCNS and BMP is significantly increased. As a result of these processes arterioles are remodeled, stimulated to grow and new ones are formed.
The new blood vessels improve blood supply and oxygenation of the treated area and support faster healing of both the tendon and the bone.
Release of Trigger Points
Trigger points are the principal cause of pain in the back, neck, shoulder and limbs. They are associated with palpable nodules in taut bands of muscle fibers and have extremely contracted sarcomeres. The dysfunctional sarcomeres contract so tightly that they begin to cut off their own blood supply. This causes the waste products to build up. Waste product build-up irritates the sensory nerve endings which then causes even more contraction. This vicious cycle is referred to as “metabolic crisis”. The assumed mechanism of action is that the delivered acoustic energy unblocks the calcium pump and thus reverses the metabolic crisis in the myofilaments and releases the trigger points.
