What is shockwave therapy?
Shockwave therapy is a noninvasive procedure that uses low intensity sound waves to repair and regenerate cells and nerves in the body stimulating the body’s natural healing process. Shockwave therapy can relieve pain and promote healing of injured tendons, ligaments, and other soft tissues. It accomplishes this by releasing growth factors in the injured tissue.
It is a clinically proven therapy with a remarkable success rate of over 75%. Moreover, shockwave therapy has minimal side effects, making it a safe and effective treatment option for erectile dysfunction. It is FDA-approved and backed by clinical research supporting its efficacy.
How does it work?
The shockwave treatment promotes the development of new blood vessels and breaks up plaque buildup in existing blood vessels. This increases blood flow, stimulating the muscle’s new nerve tissue to grow. After a few sessions of shockwave therapy, many people report improvements in their functions; the best benefits are usually obtained in a few weeks.
