Due to the utilisation of low-intensity and low-frequency electrical stimuli, it is advisable to adhere to the following guidelines to optimise their effectiveness:
​
-
Regard the treatment period as a time for relaxation and enjoyment.
-
Refrain from using mobile phones or any other portable electronic devices that may cause distractions during your session.
-
Avoid external stimuli that could disrupt your state of relaxation.
-
Prefer a book or other non-electronic resources to aid relaxation.
-
Listen to calming music to enhance your personal relaxation and facilitate recovery time for both you and your family.
How often are treatment sessions
For effectiveness of the treatment and to adapt to the individual needs of each patient, sessions are scheduled on a personalised basis.
​
Generally, it is recommended to have a course of 10 sessions, distributed roughly twice a week for a period of 4 to 5 weeks. This frequency allows for an optimal approach to chronic pathologies, ensuring intensive intervention at the beginning.
​
But the treatment protocol is adaptable
The treatment is then re-evaluated based on consultations / questionnaire/We cardio scan results.
Your treatment session
Sessions are an hour long
Using Electronic devices is not advised during this time
To ensure effective microcurrent therapy, it is recommended to remove any jewellery or metallic devices in direct contact with the skin.

How does it help?Blood flow is critical for a man’s erection If relevant medication works for you then this is a good sign that shockwave should work more permanently and without the side effects of medication. Shockwave - Promotes angio-genesis meaning developing of new blood vessels in the penis. Which increases blood flow to the penis and hence stronger erections are achieved Healing of smooth muscle within the penis – within most patients with EDF the smooth muscle in their penile arteries is damaged, so reducing function.
-
What does the treatment involve?The EDF trained shockwave practitioner will have a consultation with you to determine whether you both think it is an appropriate treatment for yourself. Additionally, if there are any other recommendations and expected result. The shockwave head is used on the penis and surrounding tissue for around 15 minutes. Generally, it is normally not painful during or after treatment, but patients may have different sensations. Research and previous practice shows that 6 sessions over a 6-week period is the best protocol.
-
What results to expect?In two thirds of cases it should improve ability to have a spontaneous erection and sustain one. Results will vary depending on the individual. Sometimes there are other factors that will need to be addressed and this will be supported by your practitioner or an additional referral. But the treatment will still be beneficial.
-
When do you see the results?Some patients get results straight away, but the treatment optimises over a few months. If after 3-4 months the patient still does not experience a reasonable improvement, then other treatment will need to be considered.
-
Are the results permanent?The biological effects of shockwave therapy are permanent and have been established on a basic science level. However, erectile dysfunction depends on the lifestyle of patients and is usually a symptom of underlying health issues which lead to ED. Due to these underlying conditions, this means that the improvements after the treatment potentially might be reversed over time if the underlying conditions are not addressed. The studies so far have only been followed up a year later, but results show that the treatment works after one year from the treatment.
