ABOUT THE TECHNOLOGY
What is PiezoWave MyACT Therapy?
Acoustic Compression Therapy (MyACT) uses focused acoustic waves to compress and manipulate tissue at varying depths, creating a precise, deep-tissue effect that targets pain right at the source.
​​
Unlike general treatments, PiezoWave's patient-guided approach allows your clinician to identify exact pain and trigger points — then deliver focused energy precisely where it's needed most.

Identify Pain & Trigger Points
Your clinician will assess your areas of discomfort, identifying the pain points and trigger points that require intervention. These sites will be marked for targeted treatment.
​​
Apply Coupling Gel
A thin coat of coupling gel is applied to the treatment area. This helps efficiently translate the focused acoustic waves from the therapy head into the body's tissue.
​​
Begin Acoustic Wave Therapy
Your clinician starts at a very low power setting, gradually increasing to a level that you can tolerate comfortably and that is most therapeutically effective. You may feel a familiar deep, dull ache — this is normal and indicates the treatment is working.
​
Patient-Guided Refinement
Throughout the session, your verbal feedback guides your therapist. You'll confirm whether the therapy source is still targeting your known pain, and adjustments are made in real time for maximum precision and effectiveness.
​
Return to Your Day
After the session, the gel is removed and you can immediately return to normal activities. Some patients notice mild soreness or flushed skin at the treatment site — this is temporary and part of the healing response.

WHY PIEZOWAVE WORKS
Real Benefits. Real Results.
Reduces Pain
Mechanical stimulation from acoustic waves provides minor pain relief — a critical component in the body's natural healing process — helping break the cycle of chronic discomfort.
Stimulates Healing at the Source
Focused acoustic energy triggers the body's own healing mechanisms at the tissue level — addressing the root cause of pain, not just the symptoms.
Improves Mobility
By releasing tense muscles and treating trigger points, PiezoWave helps restore range of motion and flexibility — so you can move the way you're meant to.
Increases Blood Flow
The mechanical stimulus promotes circulation to treated areas, delivering oxygen and nutrients essential for tissue repair and regeneration.
Faster Recovery
Whether you're recovering from injury, dealing with overuse issues, or preparing for your next competition, MyACT helps you bounce back faster and get back to doing what you love.
Patient-Guided Treatment
A unique feature of MyACT — your real-time feedback helps your therapist locate and treat the exact origin of pain, ensuring every session is targeted and effective.
