SWISS DOLORCLAST
®
Method
The SWISS DOLORCLAST
®
method uses single
acoustic pressure waves, called shock waves, to treat
musculoskeletal and dermatological conditions. Based
on technology and clinical proof, the SWISS DOLOR-
CLAST
®
method is:
• Fast and effective,
• Clinically proven,
• Non-invasive and requires no medication.
The device is used to treat soft tissue pain near bones,
myofascial pain syndromes, wound healing, lymph-
edema, and to treat cellulite with the EMS SWISS
DOLORCLAST
®
method.
Radial Shock Wave Therapy (RSWT) has revolutionized
pain management in orthopedics, and is a conrmed
technology in aesthetic dermatology. Treatment is
performed on an outpatient basis.
In pain management, RSWT is usually applied in
three to ve treatment sessions, each one week apart.
Approximately 80 % of all patients report a substantial
improvement after the second treatment session.
According to the most recent studies, this is a positive
sign for the prognosis of the treatment outcome.
The application settings outlined in this manual
(handpiece, applicator, number of sessions, num-
ber of impulses per session, frequency, air pressure)
are non-binding recommendations. They are based on
reports by RSWT experts published in the scientic lite-
rature and presented at international congresses.
The patient is at the center of the treatment. His or her
biofeedback is essential to nd the painful area and to
set the air pressure just below the pain threshold.
Product description
The DOLORCLAST
®
Radial Shock Waves system
generates clinically therapeutic pressure shock waves.
The pressure shock waves are generated ballistically
in the handpiece from a supply of compressed air from
integrated compressors in the console. The pressure
shock waves are delivered to the patient via the handpiece
applicator. The device allows control of the pressure from
1-4bar; frequency up to 25Hz and the number of impulses
for the treatment.
