Focused Shock Wave — Standalone Consultation

Focused shock wave therapy (fokusovaná rázová vlna, FRV) delivers high-energy acoustic pulses concentrated to a precise tissue depth — typically 1-12 cm below the skin — using an electromagnetic or piezoelectric source. The energy density at the focal point is significantly higher than radial shock wave, making focused FRV the appropriate tool for deeper or more localised musculoskeletal targets: calcific tendinopathies (e.g. shoulder calcific deposits),…

Studio Náskok's focused shock wave protocol typically runs as a series of 3-5 sessions spaced 5-7 days apart, with response measured between sessions. Effects are mediated by mechanotransduction (mechanical signal converted to biological response): increased local blood flow, neovascularisation, release of growth factors, and disruption of calcific deposits.

Session protocol: • Initial 60-min appointment — assessment, target localisation, first treatment session, education on home protocol • Subsequent 30-min appointments — direct treatment delivery • Standard pain-area expectation: mild to moderate discomfort during pulse delivery, often described as a brisk percussive sensation; typically tolerable without anaesthesia
