Microcontrolled extracorporeal shock wave therapy equipment with radial applicator. It presents maximum energy of 200 mJ. The shock wave emission mode can be single or sequential with frequency adjustment up to 22 Hz and the number of shots can be previously adjusted to up to 9999 or free mode (Free).
Thork Shock wave is a piece of equipment microcontrolled by extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT – Extracorporeal Shock wave Therapy). The mechanical cavitational and thermal energy produced by Thork Shock wave is transferred to the patient through a radial shock wave applicator.
It presents maximum energy of 200mJ, and the Shock wave emission mode can be single or sequential, with adjustment of frequency of up to 22Hz and the number of shots can be previously adjusted until 9999 or free mode (Free).
The equipment is accompanied by 3 projectiles, one in the applicator and 2 spare ones. Each projectile presents a durability of 3 million shots. After 9 million, that is, after the use of the 3 projectiles, it is necessary to send the applicator for overhaul and maintenance.
Thork Shock wave can be used with tips of different sizes and materials for several therapeutic applications. It presents an ergonomic applicator, exclusive design, touchscreen and an informative tutorial. It is efficient, safe, precise and easy-to-operate equipment.
The equipment must be used only under prescription and supervision of a licensed professional.
Shock wave therapy promotes the following physiological effects:
01. Mechanotransduction of signal
Is the process by which the mechanoreceptor and parenchymal cells convert the mechanical stimuli (shock waves) into a chemical response, activating the fibroblasts and increasing the density of the collagen and elastin fibers, due to the production of neocollagen and neoelastin.
02. Remodeling of the collagen
The mechanical stress tractions the collagen fibers, stimulating the remodeling of collagen, stimulating remodeling of the collagen and elastin fibers and of the fibroblasts. The traction of the collagen fibers in the skin incites the rearrangement by the movement of the applicator, and improves the malleability of the collagen.
03. Microcirculation stimulation
The increase of circulation reduces the concentration of vasoneuroactive substances such as bradykinin, prostaglandins, serotonin and histamine, which also decreases the excitation of the nociceptors and of pain. It also increases the active transport of oxygen and nutrients to the tissue.
04. Release of nitric oxide
Nitric oxide is an important vasodilator, formed in the neurons of the posterior spinal dorsal horn, which promotes an inhibitory effect in the afferent nerve pathways of pain, causing pain modulation and vasodilation for the increase of blood flow.
05. Elimination of toxins and increase of lymphatic flow
Activation of the lymphatic system, which accelerates the transport of metabolites of the extracellular matrix and causes the lymphatic drainage to reduce the edema and promote the fast regeneration of the tissues.
06. Release of growth factors VEGF, eNOS and of BMPs
These factors aid in the healing of tendinopathies in tendinous insertions and stimulate the release of angiogenic factors and in neovascularization, which improves local blood flow accelerating healing of tendon and bones.
07. Increase of permeability of the cellular membrane
This effect results from the cavitation phenomenon.
08. Reduction of adipose tissue
Por by diagnostic ultrasound and clinically observed by standardized photographs, the thickness of the hypodermic layer is reduced by shock waves.
