Focused shock wave enShock (MedizinSystem GmbH) is the first state-of-the-art device in its class, intended for the treatment of various disorders of the musculoskeletal system.
EnShock focused shock wave therapy is one of the most effective, non-invasive and non-pharmaceutical treatments on the current world market.

Compared to the competition, it has a guaranteed and mainly independently adjustable power from 0.005 to 0.5 mJ/cm², which translates to a power of 1 to 5 bars { W (mJ) = 30 x p (bar) + 30 }, at a frequency of 1-12 Hz and options for choosing the depth of penetration of the shock wave into the tissue 1-4 cm. Thanks to these specific properties, it becomes a unique technology of its kind, which is the ONLY one in Slovakia brought to you by your Revital Pro-Care rehabilitation center.

Guaranteed effects:

-Long-term pain relief that often occurs during or immediately after treatment
-Positive effect on inflammatory reactions of musculoskeletal disorders
-Disruption of calcification inside the tendons
-Treatment of a non-healing fracture

The most common diagnoses for which it is indicated include:

-Tendinopathy (heel spur, frozen shoulder, Achilles tendon, plantar fasciitis, etc.)
-Epicondylopathy (golf and tennis elbow)
-Syndromes (carpal tunnel, subacromial pain, patellar tip, rotator cuff, etc.)
-Calcifications / stress fractures / pseudoarthrosis / osteochondrosis / necrosis
-Myofascial Trigger point and painful conditions both chronic and acute

SHOCKWAVE DUAL POWER is a patented device that creates a synergistic stimulus and combines 3 energies in one treatment head:

1. Painless shock wave therapy
2. Tecar targeted diathermy
3. Transdermal vehicle

Combined therapy with a painless piezoelectric shock wave in synergy with Tecar diathermic stimulation has a wide-spectrum, long-term and immediate therapeutic effect.

The joint synergistic action of these two effective energies in the device makes it possible to replace the commonly used pneumatic shock wave technology with an unpleasant painful effect (normally used pressure of 2.5-5 bars) in this case with a piezoelectric shock wave (without any sound) with an optimized pressure of 1-1, 5 bar, at which the patient does not feel any pain and the effect is also more intense and long-lasting thanks to the combination with diathermy in many cases.

Specifications:

-130 W
- Piezoelectric generator
- 1 Hz - 9 Hz
- 480 kHz
- 200 W/ 470 Ohm

The most frequently treated diagnoses:

- Heel spur - inflammation of the Achilles tendon - plantar fasciitis
- Pain in shoulder - hip - knee joints
- Painful muscle and tendon injuries (tear, strain)
- Calcifications
- Chronic back pain
- Tennis and golf elbow
- Edema - fibrosis - tendinitis - bursitis

FireLas uses infrared and visible spectrum emitted energy with four wavelengths (with power) of 635 nm (0.2W), 810 nm (8W), 980 nm (10W) and 1064 nm (8W), which can be used for various laser therapies.

Laser therapy, e.g. used for pain relief, to speed up healing or reduce inflammation. It works by increasing tissue temperature for temporary pain relief.

The goal of laser therapy is to stimulate the cell to perform its function, but with increased speed. Laser therapies have been successfully used to treat a wide variety of medical conditions, including musculoskeletal problems, arthritis, post-surgical wounds, sports injuries, diabetic ulcers and dermatological conditions.

Unlike many pharmacological treatments, which only relieve pain but do not solve the problem, laser therapy treats the underlying pathological condition and promotes faster healing. This means that the treatment is effective and the benefits of laser therapy are long-lasting.

Advantages of laser therapy:

- Eliminates pain
- Painless treatment
- Highly effective
- Non-invasive (easy to use), non-toxic
- No known adverse effects
- An alternative for patients who have not responded to other therapies


Biological effects:

- Anti-inflammatory:
Laser therapy has an anti-edema effect because it causes vasodilation (widening of blood vessels), but also because it activates the lymphatic system, which removes waste products from the cells. The result is a reduction in swelling caused by inflammation or clot.

- Analgesic:
Laser therapy has a very beneficial effect on nerve cells, which suppress the pain transmitted by these cells to the brain.

- Accelerated tissue repair and cell growth:
Photons of light from lasers penetrate deep into the tissue, where they accelerate cell reproduction and growth. The laser light increases the energy in the cell so it can take in nutrients and get rid of waste products faster.

- Improved vascular activity:
The laser light will significantly increase the formation of new capillaries in the damaged tissue, which will speed up the healing process, close the wounds and reduce scarring.

To accurately determine problems with the feet and their effect on the overall posture, there is a modern diagnostic device called Presscam. This device enables a detailed analysis of the distribution of pressure on the feet while standing and in motion.

How are the feet related to the spine?

Our feet bear the entire weight of the body and ensure stability when moving. If the feet do not work properly, it can cause asymmetry (violation of biomechanics and a physiologically correct movement pattern), which is reflected in the support system, which is the spine. For example, flat feet or a high arch can lead to improper weight distribution and excessive strain on certain parts of the spine. This can cause pain, especially in the lower back.

How does such a diagnosis take place?

1. Foot scan: The patient stands or walks on a mat equipped with pressure sensors. These sensors record data on how the pressure is distributed in different places of the foot.

2. Data analysis: The device processes this data and creates a visual map of pressure points on the foot. This map will show areas where the pressure is excessive or insufficient.

3. Interpretation of the results: The physiotherapist analyzes the obtained results and determines whether and what abnormalities are present. For example, it can identify excessive pronation (inward tilting of the foot) or supination (outward tilting of the foot).

4. Treatment planning: Based on the analysis, the specialist can recommend different treatment procedures, special exercises to strengthen and improve the function of the feet or other therapeutic interventions.

Why is foot diagnosis important?

Correct and timely diagnosis of the feet can help prevent chronic problems with the spine and improve the overall quality of life. By identifying and correcting biomechanical disorders in the feet, we can achieve better posture, more even load distribution and pain reduction.
