While you might feel discomfort at the beginning, your body gets used to it, so there's nothing to be worried about. The intensity can be changed by the technician through your feedback during the treatment. It's not meant to be painful!

Q: What is Tissue Regeneration?

Every cell in your body is there for a good reason. Shockwave machines stimulate stem cell production and have shown amazing effects on reducing scarring, reducing healing times, and fighting the aging process from the cellular level. It is ideal for people that want to reduce cellulite, improve body shape, restore muscle tone, and improve circulation and lymph drainage. Studies have shown that this produces better long-term results than Botox injections or liposuction, without any of the unpleasant side effects associated with invasive cosmetic procedures.
