FAQ's
Q: What is Myofascial Acoustic Compression Therapy (MyACT)?
A: MyACT uses focused acoustic waves to provide a deep tissue massage. The waves target specific areas of pain and discomfort to provide pain relief.
Q: What are the advantages of MyACT?
A: Advantages include locating and alleviating pain, improving mobility, being non-invasive, reducing need for pain medications, providing outpatient treatment, and having short therapy times (10-20 minutes).
Q: How does MyACT work?
A: The PiezoWave 2 device generates focused acoustic waves that pass through the body and converge at a targeted point within the soft tissue. This creates an intense, extremely short compression that provides a deep tissue massage to the affected area.
Q: How is the treatment area targeted?
A: The patient guides the targeting process through verbal feedback. Abnormal tissue can be "flared up" with focused waves to help identify areas that require treatment. This allows precise targeting of the pain's origin, even if it radiates elsewhere.
Q: How long does a typical MyACT treatment session last?
A: Sessions usually last 10-20 minutes.
Q: How many treatments are typically needed?
A: Patients often need 1-2 treatments per week, with 3-5 total treatments before lasting improvement. Acute pain may be resolved in one session.
Q: What are the potential side effects?
A: Side effects are minimal, usually limited to temporary skin redness and minor soreness where treated.
Q: What happens during a MyACT session?
A: The clinician identifies treatment areas, applies gel, starts at low intensity while increasing power based on patient feedback, moves the device around treatment area, adjusts based on patient feedback, and finally cleans gel off after complete.
