A shockwave is a mechanical wave with a rapid increase of pressure within a very short time and then having a gradual decrease of pressure with a small negative pressure phase. shockwave therapy is aimed at the affected area that are the source of chronic pain, the influence of the impacting causes to the dissolution of calcium deposits and leads to better vascularization. Shockwaves causes blood vessel formation and increased delivery of nutrients to the affected area. And stimulate a repair process and relieve the symptoms of pain.
Therapeutic ultrasound is often used by physiotherapists to reduce pain, increase circulation and increase mobility of soft tissues. Ultrasound causes mechanical vibrations on skin and soft tissue, This helps to decrease the inflammatory response, reducing tissue swelling and thus decreasing pain.

3. Enhances tissue metabolism to improve tissue cell regeneration.
4. Promotes calls growth allays inflammation and accelerates wound healing.
