  • Page 20: About Radial Pressure Wave Therapy

    ABOUT RADIAL PRESSURE WAVE THERAPY Intelect® RPW OVERVIEW • Radial shock waves (R-SW) are introduced into the body by means Shock waves stimulate nociceptors which, in turn, release a high amount of neural pulses. As described by the Gate of a freely moved applicator and cover the entire pain region. Radial Control Theory, transmission of these pulses to the central shock waves are often referred to as radial pressure waves, which is nervous system is inhibited.

  • Page 21: Pulsed Radial Pressure Wave - Introduction

    ABOUT RADIAL PRESSURE WAVE THERAPY Intelect® RPW OVERVIEW (CONTINUED) Treatment results have demonstrated that shock wave therapy provides improved blood circulation in the treated pain regions and that a long term stimulation of metabolism is achieved in areas which, by nature, are poorly supplied with blood. Since repeated treatment sessions have shown to increase the beneficial effects of shock wave therapy, there is every reason to assume that shock waves also produce secondary effects as described in the hypothesis towards associative pain memory, for instance.
