What sound DOES the shockwave make?
With stubborn fibrous injuries, like tendonopathies or scar tissue, shockwave can be an effective option.
Yeah, it doesn't feel amazing in the moment.
However, because it can be very effective for a wide range of conditions, you'll hear the shockwave machine requested by a lot of repeat patients, because it can make a big difference.
As for what it sounds like? Well it sounds like a projectile being shuttled back and forth in a cylindrical tube at high speed over and over again to create a small shockwave at the point of the instrument, with a pitch and speed that depends on the hertz setting at which the machine is set at, of course.
Thanks, Joel, now we know!
