One of the modern solutions available at Vedi Clinic is ESWT shock wave therapy (Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy). This is an innovative and effective treatment that helps Vedi Clinic patients cure chronic prostatitis.
Prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate gland) is one of the most common inflammatory diseases in young men. The majority of prostate gland inflamations are observed in males between 18 and 50 years of age.
There are two forms of prostatitis – acute and chronic. In its acute form the disease progresses rapidly and requires immediate urological care and intervention.
The chronic variation of the disease is characterized by a prolonged course (anywhere between a few months and a few years). In these cases treatment should be focused primarily on reducing the severity of the symptoms of the disease and improving the Patient’s quality of life.
Before starting ESWT therapy, a urologist/andrologist conducts a qualifying consultation. During this visit, the doctor will assess the patient's health history, conduct a medical interview and, if necessary, conduct tests, e.g. prostate ultrasound or the 4-glasses test, to assess the patient's health condition.
Before starting the procedure, the patient will be informed in detail about the procedure, activities performed and the intensity of the treatments.
The patient will be placed in a comfortable position and the doctor or qualified medical staff will use special ESWT applicators. These applicators emit high energy acoustic waves that focus on the area where inflammation occurs. The application of acoustic waves is painless, but the patient may feel a slight tingling sensation or slight pulsations.
ESWT therapy is performed in a series of controlled therapy sessions. The frequency and number of sessions depend on the individual patient's case and the doctor's recommendations. Typically, therapy lasts from at least 6 sessions.
During therapeutic sessions, the doctor monitors the patient's reaction and assesses the progress of the therapy. If it is necessary to adjust therapy parameters, such as wave strength and penetration depth, the doctor makes appropriate changes to ensure optimal results.
After completing the therapeutic sessions, the patient does not require a recovery period and can immediately return to daily activities. Your doctor may advise you to avoid intense physical activity and to refrain from sexual activity for a short period of time to allow your body to take full advantage of the effects of the therapy.
After completing ESWT therapy, the patient will be under constant medical care. Follow-up visits allow you to monitor the long-term effects of therapy, maintain results and adjust any changes to the treatment plan.
Treatments using ESWT therapy do not require hospitalization or anesthesia. Patients usually feel comfortable during therapy sessions.

Przed rozpoczęciem terapii ESWT pacjent powinien przeprowadzić konsultację z naszym doświadczonym zespołem specjalistów. Lekarz oceni historię zdrowia pacjenta, przeprowadzi badania fizyczne i zleci odpowiednie badania diagnostyczne. Na podstawie wyników tych badań zostanie ustalony indywidualny plan leczenia, w tym liczba sesji terapii ESWT i ich częstotliwość.
Po przeprowadzeniu terapii ESWT pacjent nie musi przechodzić rekonwalescencji. Pacjent może wrócić do codziennych czynności natychmiast po zabiegu. Lekarz może zalecić unikanie aktywności seksualnej przez kilka dni po terapii ESWT, aby umożliwić organizmowi pełne wykorzystanie efektów terapii. W przypadku wystąpienia jakichkolwiek dolegliwości lub pytań, pacjent powinien skonsultować się z lekarzem.
