An Introduction to Myofascial Acoustic Compression Therapy

“Focused shockwave puts the power of pinpoint control in the hands of the patient and provider. Unlike radial shockwave treatments that are “all or nothing”, the intensity of the treatment can be modulated so that the clinician can work within the pain thresholds of the patient. The PiezoWave2 offers two distinct treatment probes, pinpoint and linear. The Pinpoint Transducer produces a “vertical” acoustic compression and is ideal for trigger point, tenoperiostial junction, and intra-articular therapy. The Linear Transducer applicator produces a “horizontal” acoustic compression is ideal for fascial release and treatment of muscle tension longitudinally. When combined into one system, there is no Low-Energy Shockwave system available that offers the versatility and control for precision therapy. Having been a patient myself that was once treated with a radial shockwave, it was an easy decision to be a provider that uses a focused shockwave.”
