What is it?
Shock waves are generated through a cylindrical electromagnetic coil that emits energy capable of propagating through body tissues, producing biological effects that activate cell regeneration and reduce fat accumulations resistant to sports and diets.
Initially, they were used in the field of urology, as a treatment for kidney stones, but, thanks to their incredible benefits and various studies carried out in the last thirty years, their application has also been transferred to the fields of aesthetic medicine and physiotherapy.
How it works
Due to its field of action, it is possible to distinguish between two types of shock wave. Firstly, there are the radial ones, which affect the most superficial tissues of the body to a depth of up to 2 centimeters.
On the other hand, shock waves can also be focal. They act at a cellular level, concentrating their energy in a single area and penetrating to different depths, depending on the patient's needs.
