Times Are Changing: Here’s What We’re Doing to Help

As we navigate through a period of economic uncertainty, one thing is clear: the healthcare industry is facing new and evolving challenges.

Over the years, we’ve built relationships with thousands of clinics across the UK and Ireland, and our regular conversations with many of them give us valuable insights into the successes and indeed struggles that clinics are experiencing today.

One recurring theme stands out in our conversations—clinic owners and practitioners are eager to innovate and elevate their services, but the current financial landscape makes committing to significant investments daunting. Many are feeling the pinch of rising costs, changes in patient demand, and the need to stay competitive while carefully managing cash flow. For those looking to adopt shockwave therapy, the gap between ambition and affordability can feel larger than ever.

We understand that flexibility and support are more important than ever. That’s why we’re making a commitment to provide practical solutions based on clinic feedback that make adopting the tools you need simple, affordable and less risky.

We’re adapting to better meet your needs and help your clinic thrive, no matter what challenges come your way.

We’re formally launching our shockwave swap-out scheme

Trade in your Storz Medical device

Your current Storz shockwave device might be worth more than you think, no matter how long its been in use.

As trusted suppliers of Storz Medical devices since 2014, we know their exceptional quality and durability. If you’re ready to upgrade to the latest generation of shockwave technology, trade in your device and enjoy a significant discount on your new purchase.

Investing in shockwave for the first time? Storz devices retain their value over time, meaning your purchase today will still offer trade-in value years down the line—unlike cheaper alternatives.

Contact our orthopaedics team to find out how much your trade-in could save you.

Trade in your competitor device

Is your current device starting to show its age? Has the warranty expired? Maybe you’ve realised how great an investment shockwave therapy has been for your clinic but feel you could benefit from the unparalleled technology, design, education and servicing that only Storz Medical can offer.

It’s the perfect time to upgrade to a device that works as hard as you do.

If you own a shockwave therapy device from a different manufacturer we may still be able to offer a discount on a new Storz device.

We cannot verify the reliability and durability of non-Storz devices and so the discount may not be as large but we would still like to help you start your journey with us even if you previously invested your money elsewhere.

For a limited amount of time we will be running a competitor device swap out scheme. Get in touch with us to have the discount value of your device quoted.

Trade in your old Storz device

If you are a long-standing customer of ours with a device that is a few years behind the latest tech, we want you to be able to provide the highest-spec treatments to your patients. Speak to us about a trade in option, in which you receive a significantly discounted price on a next-generation device such as the MPUltra+.

We’re taking financial risk so you don’t have to

Through the endless stream of success stories we hear from our customers, both in treatment outcomes and business growth, we’re very confident that shockwave therapy is a worthwhile investment for almost every clinic.

There can however be a significant upfront cost to this investment. While many clinics can recoup this investment relatively quickly, depending on their clinic size and the device they choose, it’s natural for some to feel concerned about the initial financial outlay. The period before seeing a return on investment can be daunting, especially with the unpredictability of potential business challenges that may arise along the way.

With a new fleet of devices being traded in by our customers and refurbished by us, we have more devices than ever that can be bought, rented or financed at an affordable cost.

We have decided to help you spread the cost over time to ease the risk.

Rental options

We are now offering rental plans on our radial shockwave devices. If this is your first time using shockwave therapy and you would like to see how the technology fits into your business, this is a great way to try it. If at any point you decide you would like to buy your device outright, we can offer you a new device or a discounted price on your current rental model.

We’re protecting you from supply chain issues

International trade is facing growing disruption as protectionist and pro-tariff policies gain traction worldwide, particularly in the United States. These sudden shifts in import regulations are making the supply of devices and parts increasingly unpredictable.

If your shockwave device requires servicing, and your supplier struggles to source critical components from key manufacturing hubs such as China, the US, Korea, Japan, or India, it could leave your device out of action for an extended period. Such delays can have a significant impact on your clinic’s operations and patient care.

Venn Healthcare has an intentionally tight and well-defined supply chain. All of our Storz devices are designed and manufactured in Switzerland and all supply and servicing is performed by our in house team in the UK.

Storz Medical is nearing completion of a new 2,000sqm office and 30,000sqm warehouse in addition to their similarly sized properties in Tägerwilen in order to keep up with global demand for their devices, meaning operating and manufacturing capabilities will only increase with time.

We’re increasing our available marketing materials

Our highly experienced graphic designer Karen has produced a new range of pull-up banners, posters and leaflets for you to add to your clinic. These can be purchased from our online store and can be branded to match your clinic if required.

Leaflets and counter cards are supplied upon delivery of a new device, but these new promotional and informational materials are designed to keep your clinic supplied throughout your shockwave journey.

We can even add your clinic’s logo and clinic details to the posters and leaflets you order.

You can find these on our online shop.
