Impactis M+
The Impactis M + shockwave therapy device enables effective treatment of chronic pain associated with chronic inflammation and degeneration of tendons, joint capsules, ligaments muscles and bones. It is also a great support in the therapy of trigger points, i.e. particularly sensitive places characterized by increased tension, which can generate radiating pain.
Benefits for the patient
Greater treatment comfort
During shockwave therapy, impulses are generated whose frequency may affect the patient’s comfort during the treatment. Sensitive people may experience discomfort during treatments especially in the case of low-frequency shocks. The pulse frequency range from 1 to 25 Hz used in Impactis M+ allows to increase patient comfort without losing the therapeutic properties of the treatment.
Advanced therapy with clinically proven effects
The application of physical therapy treatments using shockwaves often consents to avoid surgical intervention. Shockwave therapy is a completely safe and extremely effective treatment for orthopaedics, rehabilitation and sports medicine, provided that the precautions specified in the instructions for use are observed. Typically, a therapy session lasts around 10 minutes.
Shockwave treatments can be used effectively in the treatment of increased muscle tension, trigger points or intramuscular haematomas. Indications for Impactis M+ treatments may also include heel spurs, various enthesopathies, strain lesions and chronic inflammatory conditions. The treatments are also suitable for lymphatic drainage or the treatment of female lipodystrophy.
Benefits for the therapist
The Impactis M+ has a number of therapeutic applications, and its relatively light weight makes the device easy to transport. With a dedicated bag to accommodate the device and its accessories, the device is an ideal working tool for physiotherapists carrying out treatments in many medical facilities or active in sports medicine.
The Impactis M+ standard equipment includes three stainless steel transmitters:
- 10 mm – for trigger points therapy
- 15 mm – for the treatment of larger joints
- 20 mm – for muscle stimulation
In addition, the unit is equipped with a 15-mm titanium transmitter, which works well in sports medicine due to its specific energy transmission characteristics. The manufacturer guarantees a ballistic system lifetime of 2 million shocks.
Program and manual mode
Thanks to the built-in encyclopedia describing the methodology of performing individual procedures, displayed on a large, colorful screen, the Impactis M + shockwave therapy device operation is convenient and simple. Treatment programs can be selected using the list of 44 carefully developed disease entities, or through the anatomical mode, in which we choose the place on the body for therapy. Experienced physiotherapists can choose the operation by free access to all device parameters in manual mode.
Innovative solutions
Impactis M + is equipped with a 7-inch color display with a touch screen. The device has a welldesigned interface that has been developed based on years of experience. The front of the applicator was designed to increase the precision of application, and the cushioning system scatters vibrations transmitted back to the operator’s hand during the emission of shock waves. This solution makes operation more comfortable for the physiotherapist.
Another convenience for the user is an innovative solution called the interval emission mode. It involves switching from single pulse mode to continuous emission mode by pressing the applicator button. Such a procedure is particularly convenient for trigger point therapy. Pulse emission mode allows you to find the place of a trigger point, while continuous mode is dedicated for performing the exact therapy.
The treatment with the help of Impactis M+ allows to achieve excellent results, and an optional transmitter with a diameter of 35mm expands the range of treatments that a specialist physiotherapy center may offer to its patients.
