Technology & Physics

8 questions
Pulse Wave™ uses a high-voltage capacitor and a parabolic reflector to generate electromagnetic pulses. These pulses are pre-focused by our patent-pending Parabolic Reflector™, which converts the energy into a Focalized Electromagnetic Convergence Beam™. This focused beam delivers energy uniformly at controlled pressures to the target tissue.
It's a technology that generates shockwaves via electromagnetic means rather than a spark in a fluid. Because the wave is pre-focused at the source, about 98% of the wave energy transfers to the tissue under optimal coupling.
The reflector pre-focuses the generated electromagnetic pulses into a single, highly concentrated beam (the Focalized Electromagnetic Convergence Beam™). About 98% of the wave energy is directed to the treatment area under optimal coupling.
Radial shockwave disperses energy broadly from the surface — the energy density decreases with distance, making it suited for superficial conditions. Focused shockwave (like Pulse Wave™) concentrates energy into a specific focal zone at adjustable depths, enabling treatment of deeper tissue conditions with greater precision.
Pulse Wave™ delivers a controlled peak pressure of up to 38 MPa. This pressure is optimized for effective therapeutic outcomes without the excessive tissue disruption seen in devices that push up to 100 MPa.
No. True shockwaves are characterized by a sharp, high-pressure peak and rapid drop-off. Sinusoidal waveforms have a gradual rise and fall — more like therapeutic ultrasound or vibration therapy. Pulse Wave™ uses non-sinusoidal, high-amplitude electromagnetic shockwaves that deliver deep tissue penetration (focal depth up to 64 mm) and noticeable therapeutic impact.
The focal depth adjusts from 5 mm to 64 mm, covering virtually all musculoskeletal conditions. Many competitors advertise 120mm+ depth, but those measurements often refer to unfocused wave propagation, not clinically effective therapeutic depth. Our 5–64 mm range covers superficial conditions (plantar fascia at 5–10mm), moderate depth (rotator cuff at 15–25mm, hamstrings at 30–40mm), and deep tissue (piriformis at 40–50mm, hip tendons at 40–55mm, greater trochanter at 50–55mm).
The device includes customizable controls that allow clinicians to adjust the treatment depth from 5 mm to 64 mm, enabling precise targeting for both superficial and deep tissue conditions.

Pricing & Investment

5 questions
Pulse Wave™ is $29,990 + $650 shipping, totaling $30,640. There are no hidden fees, no annual licensing, and no software subscriptions. What you see is what you pay.
Pulse Wave is designed, engineered and assembled in the USA and sold factory-direct — no middlemen, no distributor markups, no import fees. Competitors buy devices overseas for $8K–$15K and sell them for $55K–$80K because they control US distribution rights. We cut out all of that.
At $150 per session and 10 sessions per week, you generate approximately $6,000/month in revenue. Use the ROI calculator to model your own numbers; every figure is an illustration, not a guarantee. Even at just 5 patients per week, you can cover your monthly financing payment (~$745/month).
Applicator replacements at $1,600 each (warranted for 1M+ impulses, most last 2–3 months at heavy use), distilled water (~$5/gallon), and standard ultrasound gel (~$10/bottle). Estimated 5-year maintenance total is approximately $4,800. No annual licensing fees or software subscriptions.

Financing

3 questions
Yes — through NCMIC, one of the most trusted names in healthcare financing. No hard credit check (won't affect your credit), most approvals within one business day, up to 90 days deferred payments, and terms up to 5 years. We also accept outside financing or business credit cards (3% processing fee).
Standard financing: up to 60 months with estimated payments around $745/month. Alternative option: $99/month for the first 6 months, then transition to standard payments. Up to 90 days deferred payments so you can start earning revenue before your first payment is due.
With up to 90 days before your first payment, you can treat patients and generate revenue while the device is already working for you. At conservative estimates, you could earn approximately $18,000 in revenue before making your first payment.

Technology: Pulse Wave uses electromagnetic generation with pre-focusing (about 98% wave-to-tissue energy transfer), while electrohydraulic devices use a spark in saline with ~50% energy scatter. Maintenance: Pulse Wave uses distilled water (non-corrosive, zero maintenance) vs. corrosive saline requiring frequent servicing. Cost: Pulse Wave is ~$29,990 vs $55,000–$80,000+ for competitors.
Distilled water is non-corrosive, widely available, and inexpensive. It avoids the corrosive effects of saline, which in electrohydraulic devices leads to higher maintenance, more frequent replacements, and increased operating costs.
Pulse Wave: ~$35,440 total (machine + shipping + 5yr maintenance). SoftWave: ~$115,000+ total. OmniWave: ~$155,000+ total. Over 5 years, providers save $50,000–$100,000+ with Pulse Wave.
Our 5–64 mm therapeutic depth range covers virtually all musculoskeletal conditions. Competitors advertising 120mm+ are measuring unfocused wave propagation, not clinical treatment depth. Higher pressures often cause patient discomfort without better clinical outcomes.
