The sound waves generated by the shock wave trigger a biological effect that facilitates faster healing and regeneration of tissues. Its can have a relatively good pain treatment effect, especially for some chronic inflammatory diseases. Shockwave pain treatment is mainly a physical therapy for the treatment of some chronic sports injuries and degenerative changes, with its unique indications. In general, chronic tendonitis, degenerative changes in joints and chronic sterile inflammatory diseases of the locomotor system such as achalasia and plantar fasciitis occurring in the body can be treated with this method. Many sports injuries can lead to the development of chronic inflammation, and shock wave therapy can reverse this chronic inflammation through a special mechanism; it can stimulate mast cell activity and make the release of chemokines and cytokines increase, which helps to restore normal tissue regeneration and can reverse the chronic injury. The application of sound waves produces capillary microcracks in tendons and bones, which can stimulate the release of substances that promote the regeneration of small blood vessels, as well as the release of collagen, all of which facilitate the recovery of chronic inflammation, due to the microscopic damage. Shockwave treatment is better for pain, but its indications are determined by its specific mechanism of action. For some acute injuries of the locomotor system this method cannot be used for treatment.
