Page 4: Safety Warning
WARNING Safety note: READ THIS MANUAL TO LEARN ALL SAFETY REQUIRMENTS AND OPERATING PROCEDURES, BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO OPERATE THE SYSTEM. • High voltage components are contained inside the system. • Set proper parameters before applying treatment. • Do NOT open the back panel. USER’S INSPECTION WARNING Note the unit has not been designed for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. -
Page 5: General Characteristics
The APEX Magnum system has predefined programs stored in the memory of the main unit, a great time-saving feature. Based on detailed research and practical use of the device, the well-organized predefined programs will provide recommendations for the treatment of various conditions. -
Page 6: Shockwave Characteristics
Each type of generation method produces shockwaves with different time progressions and spatial arrangements. The APEX Magnum system provides both the pneumatic and electromagnetic principles of shockwave generation. A pressure wave is formed via a projectile. Using elastic impact, the kinetic energy of the projectile is transferred into the probe of the applicator and then into the client's body. -
Page 7: Biological Effects Of Shockwave Treatments
1.2 BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF SHOCKWAVE TREATMENT The effects of the shockwaves mainly occur at sites where there is a change in impedance, such as the bone/soft tissue interface. Analgesic effect: Destruction of afferent nerves and nerve receptors. CNS stimulants, sensed as pain, are also inflammation transmitter substances. Regression of pain caused by local ischemia. -
