PiezoWave
PiezoWave
PiezoWave from Richard Wolf combines orthopaedic ESWT applications with the applications of TPST. Extracorporeal shock waves have been used successfully in the treatment of chronic pain since the early '90s. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) and trigger point shock wave therapy (TPST) are highly efficient, non- surgical treatments for chronic pain in the musculoskeletal system.
The Piezo Wave offers a significant expansion of the range of applications for myofascial pain syn - drome. The extracorporeal, focused shock wave allows precise diagnosis and therapy of active and latent trigger points. Trigger points are thickened, pain-sensitive points within a usually tense muscle. They can cause a variety of pains – even well away from their own location.

How it works
The heart of the Richard Wolf PiezoWave is the compact piezo shock wave source with its excellent features.
Operation is simple with the multifunction operator control and display unit on the top of the device. All the device parameters can be set and monitored.
The penetration depth can be varied at the therapy source by exchanging gel pads of different thick ness.
A further advantage is the large area energy coupling with an aperture angle of 94°. This lowers the energy density at the surface of the skin and reduces pain. The finely dosed energy with 20 intensity levels allows treatment without sedation.
