DEVICE DESCRIPTION 

 

CTU Shock Wave Therapy is an important evolution in the treatment of some pathologies of the Skeletal Muscle System.

It is a non-invasive technique that has demonstrated efficacy in a relatively short therapeutic time.

 

 The main TREATMENT INDICATIONS are:

 

• Restoring the  Bone Repairing Processes where a delayed consolidation or pseudo-arthrosis persists

• When a muscular lesion turns into fibrotic and/or calcific tissue after muscular wear & tear, crushing or cutting

• In Tendinopathies or in Overload Pathologies, particularly in Chronic Tendinopathies.

 

 

Efficacy in the treatment of Tendons has extended its use to the treatment of all fibrotic tissues as an outcome of a traumatic event or when Dupuytren Disease occurs.

 

CTU Shock Wave is also utilized in:

 

• Andrology

• Dentistry

• Veterinary Medicine

• Plastic Surgery

• Aesthetic Medicine (PEFS)

 

 

It is important to remember that Shock Wave Therapy has to be part of an expansive Therapeutic Procedure where general health patient conditions need to be considered and evaluated.

 

The CTU Shock Wave Therapy is important for following indications:

 

• Delays a surgical operation

• Reduces or eliminates the dosage of contextual medicines consumption

• Precocious response to therapy

• Reduces the number of treatments required

• Generates almost no side effects

 

Functional Mechanisms and  Biological Effects of CTU S WAVE

 

CTU S WAVE has an INNOVATIVE DIAMAGNETIC GENERATOR: it uses a high intensity and low frequency Magnetic Field with high gradients which can induce modifications in soft and hard biological tissues.

CTU S WAVE  avoids destructive Cavitation produced by other Shock Waves.

 

It works differently: rather than causing lesions to tissues in order to stimulate the regenerating process, CTU S WAVE produces a direct bio-reconstructive process to the Skeletal-Muscle System when it is necessary to reduce local Inflammation as well as neo-angiogenesis.
