High intensity shock wave therapy has been used to treat various ailments, such as breaking kidney stones, gall bladder stones, etc. Researchers at Medispec observed that extracorporeal, low intensity shock-wave therapy can stimulate angiogenesis, improving blood flow and endothelial function.

Researchers at MEDISPEC observed that low intensity shock waves can be used to generate extracorporeal (meaning outside of the body) acoustic waves to non-invasively treat specific sites deep within the body tissue. These waves are generated by an underwater high-voltage spark, which create single pulse waves with high-pressure amplitude, small pulse width, and short rise time.

Medispec low intensity shock wave treatments are very special.

MEDISPEC’s patented probe designs use special ellipsoid reflectors that bounce the shock waves between two focal points, focusing the energy on the affected area. These shock waves travel through fluid and soft tissue where a change in impedance results in the release of kinetic energy. Studies have demonstrated that shock waves induce an inflammatory response and neovascularization of the affected area– relieving pain, improving blood flow, and ultimately resulting in tissue regeneration and repair.

MEDISPEC’s latest medical device known as OMNISPEC™ can treat many different clinical conditions by just replacing the designated probes. Hence, by just replacing the probe machine, doctors are able to treat many more different cases with just one machine.
