ESWT Stimulates Biological Regeneration and Promotes Healing
There’s a better way to heal. ESWT is an evidence-based, non-surgical treatment option for those who suffer from non-healing wounds, scars, burns, or other dermatological issues.
ESWT helps to regenerate and repair damaged tissue by stimulating blood flow to an area that as degenerated due to poor blood flow, tissue injury, overuse, or weakness.
Treatments can be done right in your medical professional's office and are typically once per week for 6 to 8 weeks taking just 10-15 minutes per session.
To further increase the efficacy of shockwave, many physicians will often combine ESWT with with other treatment modalities. Be sure to ask your physician about his or her treatment approach.

A surgical incision is a "cut" through the skin that is made during surgery. It also called a "surgical wound." Some incisions are small, and others can be quite long.
Symptoms of surgical wounds may include scarring, increased pain and redness around the cut, delayed healing or in some cases, an infection. Some people and/or areas of the body are more prone to scarring. These scars tend to develop more frequently in areas of skin that are under constant tension or pull to include the chest, shoulders, and back. Scars are usually pale and flat, although some can be raised called hypertrophic or keloid scars, which occur when the body produces too much collagen.
Ask your doctor about Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT). ESWT is an innovative, non-invasive way to treat wounds and expedite healing. It is based on a unique set of pressure waves that stimulate the metabolism, enhance blood circulation, and accelerate the healing process. ESWT helps to regenerate and repair damaged tissue. As an alternative to surgery, the procedure may include 6-8 in-office sessions approximately 10-15 minutes each at weekly intervals.
A non-healing or chronic wound is a wound that shows little or no improvement after four weeks or does not heal in eight weeks. A non-healing wound poses the risk of infection, which can lead to a more serious condition.
Some of the most common areas for non-healing wounds are the lower extremities such as feet, ankles, heels and calves. For those unable to walk, common places for non-healing wounds are hips, thighs and buttocks. Blood flow is critical when it comes to wound healing. Blood brings oxygen, plasma, platelets and various other nutrients to help the wound heal. People with diabetes, heart disease, existing infections or lung disease often have difficulty getting oxygen-rich blood to their wound, especially if the wound is located in a lower extremity, such as a foot or ankle.

A skin ulcer (diabetic or non-diabetic) is an open sore and can occur on any area of the body. They are more likely to be in areas where there is prolonged pressure (buttocks, feet). Individuals more prone to ulcer development include those who suffer from diabetes, poor circulation, or who are immobile.
Pain and tenderness along a tendon. Pain is worse with movement or activity, redness of the area over the tendon when there is inflammation.

Skin burns are the body's reaction to heat, radiation, electricity, or chemicals which cause damage to the skin and may involve tissues underneath the skin.
Injury to the skin ay cause pain, redness, blistering, dehydration, and a skin infection.
