What is Pulsewave Therapy?
Pulsewave Therapy, also known as EPAT (Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology) or Pressure Wave Technology, is a cutting-edge, non-surgical approach to treating a wide variety of soft tissue injuries and chronic pain conditions. This innovative treatment is FDA-approved and rapidly growing in popularity for its success in accelerating the body’s natural healing process—without the need for medications, injections, or invasive procedures.
By delivering precise mechanical energy in the form of pressure waves, this therapy stimulates metabolic activity at the cellular level. As a result, circulation improves, inflammation decreases, and the body’s natural regenerative processes are enhanced. Whether you’re dealing with a sports-related injury, a long-standing chronic issue, or a degenerative condition, Pulsewave Therapy offers a highly effective, science-backed path to recovery.
Understanding the Technology Behind the Treatment
Pressure Wave Technology is a non-invasive therapy that uses pulse wave energy to penetrate the patient’s skin without damaging any tissue. These pulse waves enhance the body’s ability to heal through hyperstimulation.
This procedure exerts mechanical pressure and tension to the tissue, allowing for an increase in cell permeability, increasing cell membrane and tissue circulation, and activating the body’s own healing process. This process stimulates fibroblasts, responsible for healing connective tissue. It also stimulates osteoblasts, bone cells that are responsible for new bone growth and healing.
This procedure is performed in the office and takes about 10 minutes. Optimal results typically require three treatments at weekly intervals. Best of all, patients can often return to work and exercise immediately.
Pulsewave Therapy has Proven to be Effective for many Conditions, Including:
- Knee Injuries
- Arthritis
- Heel Pain
- Elbow Pain
- Hip Pain
- Hamstring Pain
- Overuse Injuries
- Scar Tissue
- Stress Fractures
- Sports Injuries
Benefits of Pulsewave Therapy
Pulsewave Therapy brings a wide range of benefits. It is achieving remarkable results in treating tendon pain, as well as to stimulate new bone growth. By improving blood flow to the targeted treatment area, the increased circulation increases healing ability. This cutting-edge procedure also leads to physical changes in nerve cells, which can inhibit pain sensation, reduces pain-causing stimuli, and inhibits pain transmission.
