Shockwave Therapy to Treat Erectile Dysfunction

The ED Shockwave Procedure

ED Shockwave Therapy is a ground-breaking treatment-delivery system that allows men with ED to regain their normal and natural response to sexual arousal – without drugs, health risks or side effects.

Erectile dysfunction is usually the result of poor circulation to the penis. The low-intensity waves applied by shockwave therapy are believed to stimulate the repair of aged blood vessels, promote growth of new blood vessels, and accelerate the removal of micro-plaque.

ED Shockwave Therapy treats the cause of erectile dysfunction, and not just its symptoms.

Shockwave therapy has been successfully tested and regularly used in various areas of medicine including Orthopedics, Aesthetic Medicine, and Sports Medicine.

There are numerous scientific studies that show shockwave therapy can potentially improve local revascularization (regeneration of blood vessels and enhanced blood flow) on a variety of body parts, including the penis.

How It Works

The aim of ED shockwave therapy (EDSWT) is to trigger regeneration of blood vessels in the penile shaft to support stronger, longer, and more satisfying erection.

EDSWT is currently considered an investigational treatment modality for ED according to the 2018 erectile dysfunction guideline by the American Urological Association, and is widely used in Canada and around the world for erectile dysfunction treatment.

Inside the penis is an area called the corpora cavernosa, containing two arteries. An erection occurs when they are filled with blood that’s held in place until ejaculation or orgasm is achieved.

When there is insufficient blood flow, the penis remains flaccid. EDSWT directs energy waves, (extra corporeal shockwaves are the clinical term) with the goal to improve blood flow to the penis.

The successful use of extra corporeal shockwaves is highly documented in many fields of healthcare, including physiotherapy, urology and pain management.

The waves are targeted to the area of the body where blood flow has been constrained. The procedure is safe for men with heart disease, unlike some erectile dysfunction medications.

EDSWT takes under a half hour and you can return to sexual activity the same day.
