Deliver exceptional therapeutic results with the Intelect® Focus Shockwave, an advanced solution for Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT). Designed for precision and power, this device provides targeted treatment for a wide range of chronic pain and musculoskeletal conditions. It harnesses electromagnetically generated focused shockwaves to treat deep tissue layers safely and reliably, offering a non-invasive option for patients seeking relief.

The Intelect® Focus Shockwave distinguishes itself by generating high-energy waves—approximately one hundred times more powerful than standard Radial Pressure Waves. This intense energy is produced by a small, controlled explosion underwater within the applicator, which is then focused through a specialized lens. This mechanism ensures that therapeutic energy is transmitted directly into the affected tissue with pinpoint accuracy. The device features a large focal zone, which enhances targeting precision, ensuring that the treatment is delivered exactly where it is needed most without affecting surrounding areas.

Key Features and Benefits

Unmatched Power: The electromagnetically generated shockwaves provide high-energy output essential for breaking down calcifications and stimulating tissue regeneration, offering a level of potency that far exceeds standard radial wave devices.
Deep Tissue Penetration: Capable of reaching deep therapy regions safely and reliably, this device allows practitioners to treat conditions that lie well below the surface, ensuring comprehensive care for patients with deep-seated pathologies.
Precision Targeting: The device features a large focal zone that enhances targeting accuracy. This ensures that the therapeutic energy is delivered precisely to the affected area, maximizing treatment efficacy while minimizing impact on surrounding healthy tissue.
Versatile Clinical Applications: With its ability to adjust depth and power, the Intelect® Focus Shockwave is an optimal solution for a diverse range of medical fields. It is effectively used for urological treatments, orthopaedic indications, and specialized therapies in cardiology and neurology.
Safe and Reliable: Built for professional clinical environments, the system offers consistent performance, allowing clinicians to administer treatments with confidence in the safety and predictability of the outcomes.
High-Energy Output: Delivers focused shockwaves up to 100 times more powerful than radial pressure waves for intensive therapy.
Electromagnetic Generation: Utilizes a precise underwater generation method focused through a lens for consistent application.
Enhanced Precision: Features a large focal zone for superior targeting of the affected area.
Versatile Applications: Suitable for use in orthopedics, cardiology, neurology, and urology.
Comprehensive Kit: Includes the F-SW Handpiece, transparent closing rings, varying stand-offs (15mm and 30mm), silicone oil, water bag, and ultrasound gel.

Clinical Indications

The Intelect® Focus Shockwave is versatile and effective for treating various soft tissue pathologies. Its precise energy delivery makes it the ideal solution for the following conditions:

Achillodynia: Provides targeted relief for chronic irritation and pain in the Achilles tendon, helping to restore function and flexibility in the lower leg.
Plantar Fasciitis: deeply penetrates the thick tissue of the foot to alleviate the sharp, stabbing pain associated with inflammation of the plantar fascia.
Tibial Stress Syndrome: effectively manages "shin splints," reducing pain and inflammation along the tibia to help athletes return to activity faster.
Calcific Tendinitis: Uses high-energy waves to break down painful calcium deposits within tendons, particularly in the shoulder, restoring mobility and reducing discomfort.
Patellar Tendinitis: Targets the patellar tendon to treat "jumper’s knee," facilitating the healing of micro-tears and reducing chronic knee pain.
Epicondylitis: Offers a non-surgical resolution for both lateral (tennis elbow) and medial (golfer's elbow) epicondylitis by stimulating healing in the strained tendons of the forearm.
Metatarsalgia: Alleviates pain and inflammation in the ball of the foot, providing relief for patients suffering from overuse injuries or biomechanical stress.
Trigger Points & Periarticular Shoulder Pain: Specifically locates and treats myofascial trigger points and general shoulder pain, releasing muscle tension and improving range of motion.

Possible Additional Content

Benefits of Shock Wave Therapy: Aside from treating the above mentioned conditions, shock wave therapy has been found to have numerous other benefits. It is a non-invasive and drug-free treatment option, which means it carries less risk of side effects compared to other treatments. It also promotes faster healing and recovery time, making it an ideal option for athletes and individuals with busy lifestyles.
How Shock Wave Therapy Works: Shock wave therapy uses high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate healing in the affected area. These waves create microtrauma in the tissue, which triggers the body's natural healing response. This leads to increased blood flow and the formation of new blood vessels,
Plantar Fasciitis: This condition is characterized by pain and inflammation in the plantar fascia, a thick band of tissue that connects the heel bone to the toes. Shockwave therapy can help reduce pain and promote healing in the affected area.
Achillodynia: Also known as Achilles tendinopathy, this condition affects the large tendon at the back of the ankle. Shockwave therapy has been shown to improve symptoms and promote healing in patients with achillodynia.
