UWave for Erectile Dysfunction (ED)

Erectile dysfunction is a condition that affects millions of men worldwide, impacting the quality of life for both them and their partners.

There are effective treatment options to enhance sexual performance and obtain spontaneous erections. If you’re looking for a way to increase blood flow to the penis, improve erections and optimize your sexual performance, it could be time for UWave.

UWave Therapy

UWave, also known as Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) is a relatively new and innovative method.

Many cases of ED are caused by vascular issues and UWave treats vascular erectile dysfunction. Many patients report a noticeable improvement of their ability to achieve an erection within a few weeks. UWave benefits are:
  • Non-invasive
  • Surgery-free
  • Drug-free
  • Painless in-office procedure
  • And, may reduce or eliminate the need for prescription drugs

Frequently asked questions

Am I a candidate for shockwave?
Erectile dysfunction is complex and no two patients are the same. The type of low intensity shockwave therapy upon which UWave is based has been shown to be most effective in men with mild to moderate vascular erectile dysfunction. We encourage all interested patients to schedule a consultation to discuss their case in detail and determine the treatment option that suits them best.
Does shockwave have any side effects?

The focused linear shockwave therapy that UWave is based on has been proven to be incredibly safe and is actually thought to be safer than oral medications like sildenafil (Viagra) and tadalafil (Cialis).

Is shockwave covered by insurance?

No. Although most patients’ initial consultation is covered by insurance, the UWave treatment itself is not covered.
