How Does it Work?
Duo utilizes focused low-intensity shockwave therapy (LI-ESWT). This is focused sound waves, NOT electricity! Shockwave therapy has been safely used in Urology to break up kidney stones (lithotripsy), orthopedics to relieve pain with injuries and stimulate bone growth to speed healing of fractures, and in cardiology to promote new blood vessel growth or angiogenesis.
Duo in sexual function applications:
Duo' focused shock waves stimulates healing responses that release growth factors and activate our healing stem cells to induce angiogenesis to restore & provide better blood flow. If you want details on the healing factors stimulated and the beneficial response that is produced, here is a graphic:
What's Involved?
Duo requires only six 15 minute treatments done twice weekly due to its higher effectiveness when compared to other treatment modalities. The Duo technology uses a focused electrohydraulic technology that provides deeper penetration which bypasses superficial nerves which provides another improvement in ESWT treatment – no pain. Other treatment modalities that have “wave” in their name have a lower depth of penetration which can affect the superficial nerves and cause pain during treatment as well as for a while afterward. They also require many more treatments, up to 12, due to their lower depth of penetration.
Focused LI-ESWT compared to less effective therapies:
