Greater Power & Depth for Better Treatment
In Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT), a wave is produced by a small explosion generated underwater inside an applicator. This wave is focused through a lens and transmitted into the tissue.

Chattanooga's Intelect Focus Shockwave device electromagnetically generates an extracorporeal shock wave, which produces a high pressure peak in a very short amount of time (<2s). This can penetrate deep into the tissue, up to approximately 4.7", with a precise focus on a small target, for treating heel pain due to chronic proximal plantar fasciitis.

Intuitive and easy to use

The Intelect Focus Shockwave® is operated via a touch screen that displays all essential parameters such as frequency, energy and total number of applied shock waves. Previously stored and customized treatment parameters can be easily retrieved, preventing the need for repetitive manual navigation, and ultimately saving time for the user.

Physiological Effects of Extracorporeal Shock Waves

The acoustic wave positively influences the body's cell functions and intrinsic healing capabilities. The physiological effects of shock waves on the tissue include enhanced neovascularity, accelerated growth factor release, inhibition of molecules that have a role in inflammation, and stimulation of cellular processes that contribute to tissue healing and regeneration.1,4
