WHAT IS STEMWAVE?

• Without getting too technical, StemWave is an FDA cleared medical device that utilizes harmless, yet powerful acoustic waves to activate the body’s natural healing mechanisms
• This non-invasive treatment option was designed to help patients dealing with musculoskeletal conditions causing pain and inflammation

---

Is StemWave FDA-approved?

• StemWave™ is the most advanced, highly effective, noninvasive treatment cleared by the FDA to treat degenerative conditions and chronic pain
• It delivers the most effective Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) available

---

HOW DOES IT WORK?

• When waves penetrate damaged tissue or areas of inflammation, it activates a natural response as if a new injury has occurred
• This kickstarts the biological healing process - sending healing agents to help reduce inflammation and repair damaged tissue in the injured area
• The Ultimate goal of treatment is to “awaken” dormant cells critical for healing – without the need for invasive procedures or medication

---

DOES TREATMENT HURT?

• When we are trying to identify damaged tissue or inflammation, we will move the treatment source around the injured area
• When the waves from the treatment source penetrate healthy tissue, you won’t feel much of anything
• However, when the waves hit damaged tissue, you will experience manageable pain or discomfort– but not of intensity that requires numbing cream or anesthetic
