Equine radial shockwave provides a highly effective treatment for orthopedic and soft tissue injuries in equine sports medicine.

In veterinary or rehabilitation settings, Shockwave addresses musculoskeletal disorders and returns the horse to work within an optimal timeframe.

Shockwave is the leading choice of veterinarians, trainers and therapists for ligament and tendon injury, and post-work recovery in elite equine athletes.

Key Features

  • Premier treatment for suspensory injuries and ‘kissing spines’
  • Rapid pain relief and stimulation of cellular regeneration
  • Five probe options enable varied treatment option
  • Acoustic wave 100x higher energy than ultrasound imaging
  • Achieves ‘bundled wave’ penetration of up to 8 cm
  • Handpiece supports over 3 million shockwave ‘shots’

As Seen On

How It Works

The radial shockwave therapy device uses compressed air to accelerate a projectile through a tube, creating a low intensity primary wave as it impacts on the applicator. A parabolic reflector then creates a secondary wave.

These ‘bundled’ waves are directed through an applicator held against the skin, moving through the tissue towards a defined point at a penetration depth of up to 6 cm.

This stimulates a cellular response, with improved blood supply and increased cell proliferation leading to regeneration of tendon, ligament and bone tissue. The exact mechanisms for this biological response are not yet fully known.

4 Principle Effects

Equine shockwave therapy safely and effectively addresses a range of musculoskeletal injuries and conditions.

Orthopedic

Stimulates new bone growth and fracture repair, and cartilage production in joints.

Tendons and ligaments

Prompts release of healing and growth factors, with improved collagen production.

Wound healing

Improved blood supply and cellular stimulation leads to tissue regeneration and rapid healing.

Analgesia

Nerve fiber stimulation blocks an increase in pain stimuli and leads to pain reduction (gate control theory).

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Shockwave device?

The Shockwave device from America Cryo uses radial shockwave therapy to treat equine musculoskeletal conditions, helping to reduce pain, improve circulation, and accelerate tissue healing. It's non-invasive and ideal for treating tendon and joint injuries.

How does shockwave therapy work for horses?

Radial shockwaves penetrate deep into the tissue, stimulating blood flow and cell regeneration while reducing inflammation and pain. It is effective for soft tissue injuries, tendinitis, ligament damage, and overall rehabilitation.

Is the Shockwave device safe for all horses?

Yes, shockwave therapy is safe for most horses. It’s widely used for performance horses to treat injuries or enhance recovery. Always consult a vet for personalized advice based on your horse's health.

Do you provide training?

We provide extensive training to ensure complete competence & confidence when using this device.

How long should each shockwave session last?

Sessions typically last around 10 to 15 minutes per area being treated. Always adhere to the recommended session durations for effective and safe use.

What is the delivery time for the device?

Delivery typically takes about 3 weeks. Once shipped, you will receive tracking details to monitor your order’s status.

What is included with the device?

  • The Shockwave unit
  • Multiple applicator heads for treating different areas
  • A comprehensive user manual
  • All necessary power supplies

What financing options are available for purchasing?

We offer flexible payment plans through Affirm and PayPal Credit, allowing you to spread the cost over 24, 12, or 6 months, making it easier to invest in your horse's care.
