Popular Radial Shockwave Devices
The three most popular systems sold to clinics in the UK are the Masterpuls Ultra Line range MP50, MP100 and MP200, they are compact, modular and easily moved around the clinic. All three feature the Falcon handpiece, designed for user comfort with all controls built in to the handpiece so the clinician can control all settings and intensity at the handpiece itself without returning to the machine. The Skin Touch sensor serves for starting or stopping the triggering of pulses directly at the patient by applying pressure slightly to the skin.
The main difference between the MP50 and MP100/MP200 is the size of the devices and the bar pressure, the MP50 has a bar pressure of up to a maximum of 4 bar, whereas the MP100 and 200’s bar pressure goes up to 5 bar. Most clinicians will treat a patient with a bar pressure between 1 and 3 so the MP50 will suffice, however for larger clinics a device with greater energy output would be more suitable as they will be treating a broader range of patients and using the machine more frequently. A higher bar of energy is quite often required when treating patients with a greater BMI, elite sports persons or those with large areas of muscle mass, these cases may require a bar pressure of up to 5. The larger devices can also cross over into aesthetic treatments, where higher energy output and longer treatment times are required.
Beginner-friendly
- Affordable
- Highly portable
The MPONE is designed for practitioners who are becoming acquainted with shockwave for the first time and have a small clinic, perhaps with a smaller number of patients being treated per week. Although it is small enough to fit on just about any tabletop, and around the weight of a small microwave, this device still packs a punch and is highly reliable at treating various conditions. The MPONE emits radial shockwaves, is virtually maintenance-free and has a very good cost-performance ratio without the need for large capital expenditure.
Masterpuls 50 ULTRA (MP50)
Our most popular device
Wide range of shockwave pressure settings
Falcon handpiece with integrated controls
Our best selling shockwave device, the MP50 is a compact radial pressure wave device known for its technological innovations, reliability, and precision. Its unique feature is the integration of all essential control elements into the handpiece display, which facilitates efficient and uninterrupted treatment, reducing the need for interaction with the main device. The MP50 has an optional 10” touchscreen that offers a patient management system, treatment parameters, and in-depth visualization of muscular structures. While it shares similar functionalities with other Masterpuls models in treating musculoskeletal pain, the MP50 stands out with its compact dimensions (426 x 144 x 340 mm) and lighter weight (9.5 kg). It also offers customisable treatment options through a variety of optional accessories.
Masterpuls 100 ULTRA (MP100)
Larger compressor
Higher max frequency
Higher power output
The Masterpuls MP100 Ultra is a high-energy, lightweight radial shockwave therapy device that offers increased power (5 bar) without compromising on portability. Distinguished by its larger compressor, this device is ideal for busy clinics offering a wide range of treatments. It has demonstrated excellent results on conditions where surgery is not an option, or when medical pain relief and injections no longer work. The device is compatible with V-ACTOR vibration therapy and it has an excellent damping feature that reduces handpiece vibrations for extended use. This sets the MP100 apart from the MP50, which is designed for less intensive use.
Masterpuls 200 ULTRA (MP200)
- Top-of-the-line radial shockwave device
Wide range of shockwave pressure settings
Compatible with all radial shockwave accessories
The MP200 is the most powerful of the Masterpuls radial shockwave line, with a maximum 5 bar pressure and a frequency range of between 1 – 21 Hz. This device is larger and although still portable, best suited for clinics which treat patients with shockwave therapy in-clinic. The MP200 is compatible with Storz shockwave accessories such as the Fascia & Spine Actors, V-Actor and Vacu-Actor, meaning ideal treatment of muscles, fascia and connective tissue structures are all combined in one treatment unit. Excellent damping during pressure wave generation reduces handpiece vibrations, allowing the MP200 to operate longer than a typical working day and longer than many other radial pressure wave devices
Masterpuls 100 VET (MP100 VET)
Designed specifically for veterinary use
Longer cable
Vet parameters
Designed specifically for veterinary use, the MP100 VET has similar specifications to the MP100 ULTRA, but with a 1.5m longer cable for the handpeice, allowing for greater treatable distance from the machine, which is especially useful when treating a large animal.
The optional touchscreen also comes pre-loaded with veterinary-only guides and parameters.
