Break Through Chronic Pain. Without Surgery.

Experience lasting relief with Focused Shock Wave Therapy. We use the proven, Swiss-engineered STORZ DUOLITH® SD1 T-TOP »ultra« to stimulate your body's natural ability to heal stubborn tendon and joint pain.

What is Focused Shock Wave Therapy (FSWT)?

Focused Shock Wave Therapy (FSWT) is a non-invasive treatment that uses targeted acoustic waves to jumpstart the body’s natural healing process in injured soft tissues and bone.

How it Works?

The STORZ DUOLITH® device safely delivers high-energy sound waves through the skin, focused precisely on the damaged area. This process:

Stimulates Blood Flow & Healing

Promotes the formation of new blood vessels to repair chronic tissue damage.

Breaks Down Scar Tissue

Disrupts calcifications and chronic scar tissue that cause pain and stiffness.

Resets Pain Pathways

Helps interrupt the cycle of chronic pain.

Activates Cellular Repair

Triggers the body's own regenerative mechanisms.

Why the STORZ DUOLITH® SD1 T-TOP »ULTRA«?

Precision Targeting: Depth and energy control to protect surrounding tissue.
Proven Protocols: Condition-specific protocols for optimal efficacy.
Enhanced Comfort: Ergonomic SEPIA® handpiece for real-time adjustments.

The Treatment Process

1
Precise Evaluation

Physical exam and diagnostic ultrasound to pinpoint the source.

2
Comfortable Setup

You'll be positioned comfortably, a clear gel is applied to the skin.

3
Targeted Treatment

Handpiece delivers thousands of controlled pulses — sessions last ~10–15 minutes.

4
What It Feels Like

Deep, pulsating sensation; generally well-tolerated.

5
Aftercare

Mild soreness for a day or two; most return to normal activities immediately.

Your Path to Relief

Most conditions require 3 to 5 sessions, scheduled about one week apart. Pulses per session depend on condition (e.g., ~1500 pulses for tendinitis, ~4000 for pseudarthrosis). Many patients notice improvement within 2–3 treatments.

Are You a Candidate?

You may be an ideal candidate if:

  • You've had pain for more than 3 months.
  • Rest, meds, or PT have not provided lasting relief.
  • You want to avoid surgery or more invasive procedures.
Contraindications:

Pregnancy, active infection in the area, certain bleeding disorders, or presence of tumor. We'll perform a thorough evaluation to ensure safety.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it safe?

The STORZ DUOLITH® is a Class II medical device cleared by the FDA and has an excellent safety profile when used appropriately.

Will my insurance cover it?

Wear comfortable clothing that allows access. Avoid anti-inflammatories for a few days before and after treatment.
