  • HOW DOES IT WORK?

  • Shockwave originated from the medical field where it was pioneered to break down kidney stones. Recent studies have shown that acoustic waves may stimulate the metabolic process and improve connective tissue elasticity. It works in four ways:
  • The mechanical effect of the shockwave means that the connective tissue in the area is mobilised and flexed and so will loosen but also strengthen as shown in the diagram below. Elastin also becomes denser and so this improves skin flexibility and firmness.
  1. Shockwave increases blood flow to the area due to the high pressure of the treatment. This increased blood flow increases the size of the existing blood vessels as well as encouraging the creation of new ones (Neovascularisation). Better blood flow increases nutrients and oxygen to the area and so has long-term benefits in many ways.
  2. The vibration from the shockwave transfers to the muscles, resulting in the muscles resisting and contracting creating a toning effect similar to that of a power plate.
  3. helps lymphatic drainage for removal of broken down fats to drain away in the lymph to be processed out of the body.

FAQ's

What is Shockwave Therapy?

Low-Intensity Shockwave Therapy (Li-SWT) is a treatment modality that utilizes acoustic (sound) waves to target damaged or impaired tissue to encourage the body to create healthier tissue. It also helps stimulate blood vessel growth.   Shockwave therapy has been safely used for decades. Today it is being successfully used to treat conditions such as erectile dysfunction (ED), Peyronie’s Disease, and sometimes male or female pelvic pain. 

How Does Shockwave for ED Work?

Shockwave therapy is an alternative to traditional treatments, such as oral medications (Viagra, Levitra, and Cialis), vacuum erection devices, injectable medications, and intra-urethral suppositories. 

When treating ED with shockwave therapy, low-intensity shock waves are applied to different treatment zones on the penis and on the perineum. Using targeted high-energy sound waves, Li-ESWT can speed up tissue repair and improve blood flow, nerve regeneration, and cell growth. This helps improve the strength and quality of erections. 

Is Shockwave Therapy Painful?

While “shockwave” on the surface may sound unpleasant, patients typically tolerate it well. It applies short, frequent, and high-intensity bursts of energy (in the form of ultrasonic sound waves) into soft tissue. Some patients may experience mild discomfort during or after their procedure. 

What Should I Expect for My Appointment?

Prior to your appointment, you may be instructed to shave the affected area. For example, you may be asked to shave the testes and penis prior to treatment for ED. There are no other preparations needed for your procedure. 

Appointments take approximately 30 minutes, and the procedure itself usually takes about 15-20 minutes. However, sessions may be longer depending on the customised treatment for each individual. Patients usually require six (6) treatments, with the effects expected to last for two to three years. The treatment may be repeated, if needed, after that timeframe. 

Treatments are not uncomfortable, and people do not require pain relief or aesthetic; however, patients may have soreness, redness, or some bruising in the treatment area. There are no restrictions following the therapy, but you should take it easy for the rest of the day. 

How Much Does Shockwave Therapy Cost?

Medical aid do not cover Shockwave Therapy, and patients should expect to pay out-of-pocket. At Shockwave Clinic, the cost pr treatment is Rand 2400.00  and 6-8 weekly treatments are normally required as the minimal about of treatments to get the full benefit.

Is Shockwave Therapy Right For You?

Your urologist will discuss your individual situation and help you determine if shockwave therapy is an appropriate treatment option for you.
