1ElectrohydarulicA wave generator that works with a spark plug in an aqueous medium through which a high voltage current passes (14-18 kV), generates a plasma bubble that expands spherically. Subsequent to an expansion, a shock wave is generated
2PiezoelectricWave generator that works by simultaneously driving several hundred piezoelements mounted on a spherical tray, thus generating self-focusing spherical waves
3ElectromagneticWave generator, uses an electric coil to generate two magnetic fields of different polarity, this coil can be flat or cylindrical.
4PneumaticBallistic generator with pneumatic drive. Compressed air is used to accelerate a projectile. The movement and the weight of the projectile produce kinetic energy.
5Heel spurA calcaneal spur, or commonly known as a heel spur, occurs when a bony outgrowth forms on the heel bone. Calcaneal spurs can be located at the back of the heel (dorsal heel spur) or under the sole (plantar heel spur).
6Kidney stonesKidney stones (renal lithiasis, nephrolithiasis) are hard deposits made of minerals and salts that form inside your kidneys.
7EpicondylitisEpicondylitis is an inflammation or damage to the area of an epicondyle of bone. An epicondyle is a projection of bone above a condyle (a rounded prominence at the end of a bone, usually where the bone connects to another bone) where ligaments and tendons are attached.
8Ultrasonic emissionTechnically,
ultrasonic emission (AE) is defined as the class of phenomena
in which transient elastic waves are generated by the
rapid release of energy from a localized source or sources
within a material
9AnalgesiaInhibition of nerve endings by release of endorphins
10OsteogenesisIs the process through which the formation of bone tissue occurs
11—The shock therapy works with an acoustic wave that generates an electromagnetic field, and can be transferred to the injured area by means of the heads that the machine has.
Like the:
Electrohydraulic, electromagnetic, piezoelectric and pneumatic system.
The shock wave was used in principle to break kidney stones but it was extended its use in medicine in pathologies such as epicondylitis producing analgesia by the release of substance P, in the calcaneal spur the calcification produced is eliminated.
Another effect is osteogenesis, stimulating the production of bone in areas of need.
