Abstract: The method of treating a patient addicted to pain medication or opioids has the step administering acoustic shock waves or pressure pulses to the patient. A second embodiment includes a treatment to reduce a patient's pain caused by a medical condition and/or medical procedure to reduce or eliminate the taking of addictive pain medication. The treatment has the step of administering acoustic shock waves or pressure pulses directed to an area near a source of the pain or to one or more reflexology zones or to one or more reflexology zones and to an area near the source of the pain or both to treat the medical condition or prior to the medical procedure or during the medical procedure or after the medical procedure or any combination thereof.

Abstract: A treatment method to reduce or eliminate a patient's symptoms caused by a medical condition or disease is disclosed. The treatment has the step of administering acoustic shock waves directed to one or more reflexology zones or to one or more reflexology zones and an area near a source of the pain if any is exhibited to treat the medical condition. The treatment further has the steps of activating acoustic shock waves of an acoustic shock wave generator to emit acoustic shock waves and subjecting the one or more reflexology zones or the one or more reflexology zones and the area near a source of the medical condition or pain, if any is exhibited, to acoustic shock waves to treat the medical condition.

Abstract: A method of modulating glandular secretions by administering acoustic shock waves to a reflexology zone has been discovered. In one preferred embodiment, a treatment method achieves one or more of a) modulating blood sugar levels, b) stimulating insulin production levels or c) normalizing A1C levels by administering acoustic shock waves to a reflexology zone or region of a patient. The treatment method further has the steps of: activating acoustic shock waves of an acoustic shock wave generator to emit acoustic shock waves; subjecting the reflexology zone to acoustic shock waves stimulating the pancreas to have a modulated response wherein the modulated response is one of an adjustment in blood sugar levels or insulin production and release or normalizing A1C levels which increases low level output, decreases high level output or stabilizes erratic output; and wherein the emitted acoustic shock waves are focused or unfocused.

Abstract: A method of treating a patient exhibiting a lung disease or pulmonary disorder by applying shock waves or acoustic pulses directed to impinge lung tissue of the lung or lungs exhibiting a lung disease or pulmonary disorder, has the steps of: activating an acoustic shock wave or acoustic wave generator or source to emit acoustic shock waves or pressure pulses from a fixed acoustic wave source or a handheld shock wave or pressure pulse head; and administering a plurality of acoustic waves in a pressure pulse or shock wave pattern within the lung tissue of less than 10.0 mJ/mm2 per shock wave, the plurality of acoustic waves in a pressure pulse or shock wave pattern being directed to a portion of the lung exhibiting the lung disease or pulmonary disorder.

Abstract: A method of modulating glandular secretions by administering acoustic shock waves to a reflexology zone or region has been discovered. In one preferred embodiment, a treatment method achieves one or more of a) modulating blood sugar levels, b) stimulating insulin production levels or c) normalizing A1C levels by using the step of administering acoustic shock waves to a reflexology zone or region. The treatment method further has the steps of: activating acoustic shock waves of an acoustic shock wave generator to emit acoustic shock waves; subjecting the reflexology zone to acoustic shock waves stimulating the pancreas to have a modulated response wherein the modulated response is one of an adjustment in blood sugar levels or insulin production and release or normalizing A1C levels which increases low level output, decreases high level output or stabilizes erratic output; and wherein the emitted acoustic shock waves are focused or unfocused acoustic shock waves.
