PERCUSSION ULTRASOUND
Shockwaves (acoustic waves) are part of the therapeutic methods of tissue regeneration medicine (regenerative medicine) and are an innovation in the field of rehabilitation.
Focused acoustic waves are a non-surgical option in many diseases of our musculoskeletal system. A wave is generated in the water inside the device (through an electromagnetic mechanism) and through a mirror is transferred into the tissue and focused precisely on a specific point, for example the pain trigger point, where the maximum energy is transferred. In this way the generated energy travels through the soft tissues in the form of focal waves.
New generation of impact ultrasound, more patient-friendly, as the wave focuses on the focus of pain . This is very important because it allows the therapist to use the system as a diagnostic tool as well. With the help of the patient's reaction and with a precision of millimeters, he can locate the affected area and perform treatment exactly where the problem exists, leaving the surrounding tissues unaffected

With the help of the patient's reaction and with a precision of millimeters, he can locate the affected area and perform treatment exactly where the problem exists, leaving the surrounding tissues unaffected
Actual focus technology versus other technologies that claim to achieve focus but actually do not or only partially achieve focus such as radial therapy devices. No collateral tissue injury, not causing pain in the superficial tissues before the focal point (very little pain is caused at the focal point when applied to the affected area and used as a diagnostic tool); no anesthesia or sedation, no hematomas and superficial tissue injury, absolutely safe and no side effects treatment
Treatment of Myofascial Pain Syndrome - Trigger Points
Τα σημεία πυροδότησης πόνου (mTrP) είναι διακριτά, εστιασμένα, υπερευαίσθητα σημεία που συναντώνται συχνά στους σκελετικούς μύες αλλά μπορούν να εμφανιστούν και σε άλλα μαλακά μόρια. Μπορούν να πυροδοτήσουν πόνο στο μυ που βρίσκονται ή στη γύρω περιοχή ή ακόμη και σε απομακρυσμένη από τον μυ περιοχή (αντανακλαστικός πόνος). Με την ηλεκτρομαγμητική τεχνολογία κρουστικών κυμάτων τα σημεία πυροδότησης πόνου μπορούν να εντοπιστούν με πολύ μεγάλη ακρίβεια, πολύ εύκολα, γρήγορα ακόμη και αν βρίσκονται σε βαθύτερα στρώματα ιστών που δεν είναι προσεγγίσιμα με ψηλάφηση. Μπορούν να θεραπευτούν με πολύ μεγάλη αποτελεσματικότητα και εντυπωσιακά αποτελέσματα από την πρώτη κιόλας θεραπεία.
How does it work
It creates hyperemia and reduces inflammation in the affected area. It stimulates the peripheral nerve endings and activates the secretion of endorphins, thus activating the reduction of pain. Release of substance P. Substance P is a polypeptide that has an analgesic effect. Inhibition of the COX II enzyme. By blocking inflammatory transmitters such as COX II the acoustic waves produce an anti-inflammatory effect. This weakens the inflammatory process. Activation of cellular defenses by contributing to the release of free radicals, acoustic waves help strengthen the body's endogenous cellular defense mechanisms. Hyperexcitability of nerve fibers. Hyperstimulation of nerve fibers blocks the increase in pain signals and thus increases the analgesic effect.
