Ross Mason was injured in a bicycle accident in August 2007. As he was training for the Iron Man competition, a bee got in his helmet, causing him to veer off of the trail and break his neck. His injury was classified as a C-6 complete spinal chord injury, which means that he was paralyzed below the collarbone. Doctors said he would never regain his lost functionality. Seven years after his injury, Mason began treatment by SoftWaves (unfocused acoustic waves) on his spinal cord. Within weeks, Mason regained sweating down to the waist, autonomic nervous system functionality, and stomach and back muscle control. Within a year, Mason's breathing drastically improved, and he was able to leg press 60-65 lbs.

miR-19a-3p containing exosomes improve function of ischaemic myocardium upon shock wave therapy - As many current approaches for heart regeneration exert unfavourable side effects, the induction of endogenous repair mechanisms in ischaemic heart disease is of particular interest. Recently, exosomes carrying angiogenic miRNAs have been described to improve heart function. However, it remains challenging to stimulate specific release of reparative exosomes in ischaemic myocardium. In the present study, we sought to test the hypothesis that the physical stimulus of shock wave therapy (SWT) causes the release of exosomes. We aimed to substantiate the pro-angiogenic impact of the released factors, to identify the nature of their cargo, and to test their efficacy in vivo supporting regeneration and recovery after myocardial ischaemia.

Stem cells pose risk, offer promise - Providing the therapy involves using an FDA cleared device with “genuine” shock waves, according to Irwin Goldstein, MD, a urologist who practices sexual medicine in San Diego and and is director of the nonprofit Institute for Sexual Medicine (SexualMed.org). “There are a lot of imitation non-shock wave acoustic sound waves that are being scammed and sold to patients who are desperate,” said Dr. Goldstein, who uses a device known as the UroGold 100. “Real shock wave therapy has been shown to activate endogenous stem cells. This specific device is FDA cleared now in the U.S. for increasing blood flow, connective tissue activation, and amelioration of pain, and the FDA has classified this device a non-significant risk (NSR) to humans.” More..
