Focused shockwave therapy VS radial shockwave therapy differ in key aspects

Wave Propagation:

   🔹  Focused Shockwave: Delivers concentrated shockwaves to a precise point.

   🔹  Radial Shockwave: Spreads shockwave energy radially over a wider area.

Depth of Penetration:

   🔹   Focused Shockwave: Reaches up to 6.5cm deep, targeting deeper tissues.

   🔹   Radial Shockwave: Affects up to 3.5cm deep, suitable for superficial issues.

Precision and Treatment Area:

   🔹  Focused Shockwave: High precision with a smaller treatment zone.

   🔹  Radial Shockwave: Covers a larger, less precise area.

Energy Delivery:

   🔹  Focused Shockwave: High energy at a specific point, more intense.

   🔹  Radial Shockwave: Dispersed energy, covering a broader area with lower intensity.

Applications:

   🔹  Focused Shockwave: Effective for deep tissue issues like tendon injuries and chronic pain.

   🔹  Radial Shockvave: Ideal for superficial conditions like muscle tightness and surface tendinitis.

Treatment Experience:

   🔹  Focused Shockwave: More intense and potentially uncomfortable.

   🔹  Radial Shockwave: Generally more comfortable with a milder sensation.

In summary, focused shockwave therapy is used for deep, targeted treatment, while radial shockwave therapy is suited for broader, superficial applications.
