SHOCKWAVE
THERAPY FOR ED

Erectile Dysfunction (ED) is a difficult subject for many men to discuss. But it’s actually WAY more common than you think, affecting between 15 to 30 million men across the world. What’s causing so many men to have ED? Well, age is a big factor. Up to 40% of men experience ED between ages 30-40, but those numbers can increase to up to 70% by the time men reach 70-years-old.

And while there are several claimed “treatments” for ED on the market, not many can actually treat the true, underlying physiological cause of erectile dysfunction. This is where Shockwave Therapy for ED comes in to completely change the game.

WHAT IS ERECTILE
DYSFUNCTION (ED)?

Shockwave Therapy is a safe, non-invasive “treatment” for men suffering from ED. Also known as low-intensity focused shockwave therapy, it uses soundwaves to stimulate natural blood flow to the penis, without the use of drugs, surgery, or any other invasive products. The low-intensity sound waves are pulsed through the erectile tissue of the penis, which helps to restore natural erectile function and clear plaque out of the blood vessels in the penis, which thereby encourages better blood flow.

With Shockwave Therapy, you get to experience better erections and potentially more sensation during sexual activity.

And unlike pills, vacuum devices, penile injections, surgery, and other terrifyingly invasive “treatments” for ED, Shockwave Therapy is effective treatment because it focuses on the root of the problem, rather than just treating the symptoms.

Here’s what’s going on when you experience ED: When you become aroused, your brain sends messages to the blood vessels in the penis, causing them to open and allow for blood to flow into the penis. As the pressure builds inside, the blood becomes trapped in the tissues, keeping the penis erect. If blood flow to the penis fails to stay inside the tissues, or there is not enough blood flow, it can cause little to no erection and lead to erectile dysfunction.

SYMPTOMS OF
ERECTILE
DYSFUNCTION
INCLUDE

  • TROUBLE GETTING AN ERECTION
  • DISINTEREST IN SEX OR LACK OF SEX DRIVE
  • DIFFICULTY MAINTAINING AN ERECTION DURING SEXUAL ACTIVITY
  • PEYRONIE’S DISEASE

BUT WHAT CAUSES ED?

ED can be caused by a variety of different factors including your surroundings, physical well-being and psychological issues such as anxiety or depression.

A common cause, however, is the build-up of plaque. Plaque builds up very slowly so it can take years before you realize that you are needing to seek treatment. Once the plaque builds, blood can no longer make its way to the penis, making little to no erection.

OTHER CAUSES INCLUDE:

Finally, there are certain lifestyle factors that might play a huge role in the onset of ED. Sex and the pleasure associated with it is both an emotional and physiological response. Mental or emotional issues might affect these natural responses and bring on conditions such as ED.

How Does
SHOCKWAVE THERAPY DIFFER FROM PILLS?

Viagra and other ED medications are some of the most popular and widely-seen treatments for ED of our time. But the truth is they are not a cure. Pills are not a universal solution for all conditions and diseases that cause ED.

Not to mention, prescription pills are expensive and have been known to have a ton of unpleasant side effects that can harm our health for years down the road. To add to this, they offer a temporary or even momentary solution. They do not target the underlying condition.

SHOCKWAVE THERAPY FOR ED OFFERS A MORE PERMANENT SOLUTION, RATHER THAN A TEMPORARY FIX.

WHAT RESULTS
CAN I EXPECT FROM SHOCKWAVE THERAPY?

SHOCKWAVE THERAPY HAS A 75-80% SUCCESS RATE AMONG MEN AGES 40-70 YEARS OLD

Most men do not experience any sort of pain or discomfort during the treatment and can experience the benefits within just 1 to 3 weeks of starting the treatment. In order for Shockwave Therapy to be truly effective, each client must commit to a number of therapy sessions.

During each session, a clinician applies a probe to the penis, stimulating different regions of the penile tissue each time. There is no pain, irritation, or discomfort associated with these sessions at all. It’s this mechanical energy that helps to heal the tissue in the targeted area over time.

Typically, the treatment course spans a period of 6-weeks. Throughout this time, there is one session per week. Between 50-80% of men report an improvement in their erectile function 30-days post-treatment. This is only once they have completed the full 6-week cycle.

WHAT IS
THE COST OF SHOCKWAVE THERAPY FOR ED?

Currently, does not cover this treatment. You will have to check with your HSA or FSA in seeing if they provide reimbursement for the services, but typically this will be an out-of-pocket cost. The important thing to remember about Shockwave Therapy for ED is that it delivers results worth your money and time.

With Shockwave Therapy, you’ll save money on pricey prescription pills and painful injections, because you won’t need them. If you currently have Peyronie’s Disease, you can expect a complete transformation as the plaque is deteriorated during the shockwave process, decreasing pain.
