How does it work?
The PulseVet Shock Wave System produces high-energy sound waves, which stimulate cells and release healing growth factors in the body that reduce inflammation, increase blood flow, accelerate bone formation, and enhance wound healing.
Only the electrohydraulic technology used in the PulseVet System creates a true shock wave at all energy settings – a key differentiator in ensuring efficacy. This allows the therapy to reach deeper, targeting areas that other modalities cannot.
