Pulse Wave™ Penetration Depth Guide | 60mm Focused Shockwave Treatment Zones

OVERVIEW

Understanding Focused Penetration Depth

Pulse Wave™ delivers a precise focal depth of 60mm — the true therapeutic range where focused shockwave energy is concentrated for clinical effect.

Why 60mm matters: Many competitors advertise 120mm+ penetration depth, but these figures measure how far an unfocused wave travels through tissue — not where the therapeutic energy is clinically concentrated. Pulse Wave only advertises focused wave penetration depth: the depth where treatment actually happens. Our 3 depth tiers cover 14+ treatment areas across virtually every standard ESWT indication.

Why 60mm Is All You Need

Focused therapeutic depth is what matters in the clinic — not how far a sound wave can travel through tissue.

Covers Every Standard Indication

Virtually all standard musculoskeletal ESWT indications fall within 0–60mm. From superficial plantar fascia (5mm) to deep piriformis (50mm), Pulse Wave reaches them all.

📊

Competitor Depth Claims Are Misleading

Competitors advertising 120mm+ are measuring unfocused wave propagation — how far sound energy disperses through tissue — not where therapeutic energy is clinically concentrated.

🎯

Precise, Controlled Energy Delivery

Our TrueDepth™ technology ensures precise, controlled shockwave delivery at the exact depth needed — maximizing therapeutic effect and patient safety.

💰

No Price Premium for Empty Claims

Higher penetration claims often come with $25,000–$50,000 higher price tags — without better clinical outcomes. Pulse Wave delivers equivalent results at a fraction of the cost.

Pulse Wave vs. The Competition

See how Pulse Wave stacks up on penetration depth and price.

⚡ Pulse Wave™

Therapeutic Depth 60mm focused
Depth Type True focal (TrueDepth™)
Treatment Areas 14+ conditions
Price $29,990
Clinical Outcomes Evidence-based ESWT

Typical Competitors

Advertised Depth 65–120mm
Depth Type Unfocused / radial
Treatment Areas Similar indications
Price $55,000–$85,000
Clinical Outcomes No proven advantage
📋 Clinical literature note: The clinical literature supports treatment within Pulse Wave's energy range. The extra depth advertised by competitors rarely translates to better patient outcomes — it simply translates to a higher invoice.
