To explore the full scope of this technology, turn to page 12 for our Shockwave Showcase. This section breaks down the science of Shockwave therapy, its benefits, and even provides a guide to differentiate the major players in the market.

In this deep-dive, you’ll learn how acoustic wave therapy can accelerate healing, stimulate stem cell activity, and boost collagen synthesis—achieving faster recoveries than the body’s natural healing process alone.
