Key benefits of Fizio FOCUS therapy
- Non-invasive: Focused shockwaves are a non-invasive procedure that does not require surgery or medication. This means less risk of complications and side effects.
- Pain relief: the Fizio FOCUS is very effective in relieving pain by stimulating the body’s natural mechanisms to restore and reduce inflammation.
- Rapid rehabilitation: patients often report a rapid improvement in symptoms, leading to a quicker return to daily activities and less need for prolonged rest or restriction of movement.
- Increased mobility: By reducing pain and inflammation, focused shock waves often improve mobility in the affected areas. This gentle therapy supports natural healing, enhances movement and well-being, offers hope for chronic issues, and reduces the need for repeated treatments.

- Stimulating healing: the Fizio FOCUS method can stimulate the formation of new blood vessels, improving blood circulation in the area of the injury, which helps tissues heal faster.
- Effectiveness in chronic conditions: focused shock waves have proven to be very effective in treating chronic pain conditions such as plantar fasciitis, tendonitis and other forms of chronic tendinopathies.
- Low likelihood of recurrence of symptoms: focused shockwave treatment can lead to longer-lasting improvements and a lower likelihood of pain recurrence.

Which areas can be treated with Fizio FOCUS?
Focused shock waves are particularly effective in treating a variety of pathologies, mainly involving the musculoskeletal system.
Below are some specific conditions where focused shock waves are commonly used. For each of these conditions, it is important that the treatment is carried out under the supervision of a qualified professional who will take into account the specific needs and circumstances of the patient. Your doctor or physiotherapist will also assess whether Focused Shockwave is an appropriate choice for the treatment of your specific condition.
- Plantar fasciitis: this is one of the most common conditions where focused shock waves are used to reduce heel pain and improve foot function.
- Tendonitis: tendonitis, including those in the shoulder ring, elbow (tennis elbow), wrist and Achilles tendon, is often successfully treated with this method.
- Calcifying tendonitis: this condition, where calcium deposits build up in the tendons, can be particularly painful, and focused shockwaves can help break up these deposits and reduce pain.
- Trochanteric bursitis: inflammation of the bursa along the greater trochanter of the femur can cause flank pain, but focal shock waves can reduce inflammation and pain.

- Achilles tendon pathologies : in Achilles tendinopathy or partial rupture, focal shock waves stimulate tissue healing and regeneration.
- Patellofemoral pain syndrome: this method can reduce the anterior knee pain often associated with this pathology.
- Stress fractures: in some cases, focused shock waves can be used to promote bone healing.
- Myofascial pain: pain originating from muscle knots or flexor points can be effectively treated with this technique.
- Osteoarthritis: although focused shock waves cannot cure osteoarthritis, they can reduce symptoms such as pain and stiffness.
