Radial or Focused Shockwave Therapy

Radial or Focused Shockwave Machine?



We have received feedback and questions asking whether people should invest in focused shockwave machines. There is limited evidence base to show it is superior that radial for tendinopathies and other superficial pathologies. Focused machines are considerably more expensive but can be used for conditions such as ED if you work in mens health and it is argued they are more comfortable for bony lesions and they can achieve greater depths if you wish to treat deeper lying structures.

We can’t advise you which machine to plump for but this image shows some advantages and disadvantages of both units. Should you make the financial commitment to purchase a focused machine our course will provide you with basic information on ECSWT and the manufacturer/sales team will generally be happy to offer further training on their unit as part of their fee.
