Shockwave therapy is an effective, evidence based, non-invasive treatment that uses high-energy sound waves to stimulate healing and improve symptoms in the muscles, tendons and soft tissue. It is commonly used to treat musculoskeletal conditions such as plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, and chronic pain in the back, neck, and shoulders.
Shockwave is a safe alternative to surgery or other NHS interventions. It is clinically proven to create an adaption to the metabolic state of cells and stimulate enzymes involved in reducing pain and inflammation. Shockwave is especially successful when pain has become chronic (3 months +), whereby the body has become unable to heal itself.
The application of shock waves, known as Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT), specifically targets inflammation, creating tiny air bubble cavitations, which increase blood flow, pain reducing enzymes and your own stem cell activity. Often patients report long term relief and resolution of their pain/mobility loss, without recurrence or the need for top up treatments.

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a prevalent condition affecting millions of men worldwide. Understanding the underlying causes can help in effective treatment. Here are some of the primary causes of ED, supported by research and statistics.
Cardiovascular diseases, such as atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), significantly affect blood flow to the penis. Research shows that men with heart disease are 2-3 times more likely to experience ED. Improving cardiovascular health can lead to better erectile function.
Diabetes can cause nerve damage and affect blood flow, leading to ED. According to the American Diabetes Association, nearly 50% of men with diabetes experience erectile dysfunction at some point in their lives. Managing blood sugar levels is crucial for preventing ED.
Low testosterone levels can contribute to erectile dysfunction. A study published in the Journal of Sexual Medicinefound that approximately 40% of men with ED have low testosterone levels. Hormonal therapy may be an effective solution for those affected.
Mental health plays a significant role in sexual performance. Anxiety, depression, and stress can lead to ED. Research indicates that up to 20% of erectile dysfunction cases are solely attributed to psychological issues. Addressing mental health through therapy can improve erectile function.
Certain medications, including antidepressants, antihypertensives, and medications for prostate conditions, can cause ED as a side effect. The Mayo Clinic reports that around 25% of men experiencing ED may have it linked to medication use.
Unhealthy lifestyle choices such as smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and lack of physical activity can contribute to erectile dysfunction. Studies show that lifestyle modifications can improve ED in up to 30% of men.
Conditions like multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, and spinal cord injuries can impair nerve signals necessary for erections. Research indicates that neurological disorders are responsible for a significant portion of ED cases, especially in older men.
Understanding the causes of erectile dysfunction is the first step towards effective treatment. At Hove Shockwave, we specialize in shockwave therapy, a non-invasive treatment that enhances blood flow and stimulates healing in penile tissue. With a success rate of over 70%, our approach addresses many of the underlying causes of ED.

Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT) is a physical therapy technique that provides a non-invasive and evidence based treatment for diseases of the musculoskeletal system such as pain in the lower back pain, arthritis as well as inflammation in tendons and joints.
EMTT relies on the production of high-intensity magnetic field pulses to stimulate cellular responses, promoting natural healing processes in the body’s tissues. If you are able to have an MRI, EMTT will be suitable.

Shockwave therapy was first created back in the 1970’s and was exclusively used as an effective treatment technique for kidney stones. Using this method hugely reduced the need for a painful, invasive surgery.
Later in the 1980s, practitioners using shockwaves to break up kidney stones noticed a secondary result. Bones close to the treatment site were seeing an increase in mineral density. Because of this, researchers began to look into its applications in orthopaedics, which led to its first use in bone fracture healing. Over the coming decades came many more discoveries of its effects and the full potential for therapeutic use that it holds today.
