Gainswave Bellevue WA
Non-invasive Shockwave ED Treatment

WHAT IS GAINSWAVE, I.E. SHOCKWAVE, THERAPY?

GAINSWave, also known as shockwave therapy, uses low-intensity sound waves to repair aging blood vessels, stimulate angiogenesis (the growth of new blood vessels), increase blood flow to the penis, and remove decades of micro plaques in vessels of the penis. GAINSWave is a specific shockwave protocol that optimizes efficacy, safety, and results.

Kass Precision medicine AND GAINSWAVE BELLEVUE - THE SUPERIOR CHOICE

Dr. Kate Kass piloted the GAINSWave program with Dr. Gaines and was the first to bring it to the Seattle Bellevue area. She has conducted more shockwave therapy treatments than any other doctor in Washington State. Kass Precision Medicine uses an FDA-approved focused shockwave device, ensuring our patients receive optimal results. Most practitioners in Washington state use a radial device, which is not as well-supported by the evidence.  We use evidence-based protocols from published shockwave studies.

“It’s just like going to the gym and training a muscle…it’s the equivalent of a bench press.”

IS SHOCKWAVE THERAPY RIGHT FOR YOU?

  • Do you experience erectile dysfunction?

    For most men experiencing erectile dysfunction or any declining quality of erections, GAINSWave can be a powerful tool. This treatment is a safe therapy that has been proven to be an effective alternative to other ED medications. Shockwave therapy has shown no serious side effects if applied correctly. Many men report improved erections within days of their first treatment.

  • Are you simply seeking improved male performance?
    Most men can appreciate the benefits of shockwave therapy. If you want to perform your best and increase your sexual satisfaction, GAINSWave can help.

  • Do you suffer from Peyronie’s Disease?
    GAINSWave is an effective tool that can help diminish scar tissue and reduce the curvature of the penis, both characteristics of Peyronie’s Disease.

GAINSWAVE (AKA SHOCKWAVE THERAPY) - HOW IT WORKS

GAINSWave works via three mechanisms:

  1. GAINSWave treatment has been proven in multiple studies to improve endothelial function (strengthening the lining of the blood vessels), and stimulate the growth of new blood vessels (angiogenesis) as well as the growth of new nerve tissue (neurogenesis). Regeneration of blood vessels and nerve tissue addresses the root cause of erectile dysfunction, resulting in more sustainable, firmer, and more sensitive erections.

  2. High-frequency acoustic waves stimulate the production of nitric oxide synthase within the vessels in the penis. This enables the dilation of vessels and brings increased blood flow to the existing blood vessels in the penis.

  3. GAINSWave therapy eradicates micro plaques, improving the health of the vessels and increasing blood in the penis, allowing them to dilate and fill with blood. As a result, most men appreciate stronger, harder, and more sustainable erections in just 6–12 treatments. This process of neurogenesis and angiogenesis increases sensitivity in the penis.

YOUR GAINSWAVE PROCEDURE

Patients should arrive 30 minutes before treatment so a numbing cream can be applied. (For follow-up treatments, the numbing cream can be applied at home before your appointment.) During the 30-40 minute procedure, we will use the GAINSWave-trademarked protocol and equipment. That’s it! You can then resume your day with no downtime. While results vary, 75 percent of men report positive test results following their treatment, with some experiencing a spontaneous erection within 24 hours.

CAN SHOCKWAVE THERAPY BE PAINFUL OR EMBARRASSING?

For most men - the answer is no. This quick procedure is non-invasive and pain-free. Dr. Kass and her medical team have conducted thousands of shockwave (GAINSWave) treatments on male patients to treat erectile dysfunction and Peyronie’s Disease and to help enhance sexual wellness, performing approximately 3–7 treatments every day. We are experts in erectile dysfunction, and our professional, discreet service makes patients feel confident and comfortable throughout the treatment.

SHOCKWAVE THERAPY - IS THERE DOWNTIME FOLLOWING TREATMENT?

There is no downtime following a GAINSWave treatment. We encourage patients to engage in sexual activity soon after the procedure to encourage blood flow to the treated area.

“The very same night…it was amazing what kind of reactions it gave me.”

— Ronald LA, CA

HOW SOON DO PATIENTS SEE RESULTS?

The process of new vessel formation may take several months; however, some men show immediate improvement. Because nitric oxide (a vasodilator) is released in the bloodstream during the procedure, many shockwave therapy patients even report having morning or nocturnal erections on the first day.

HOW MANY SHOCKWAVE THERAPY TREATMENTS ARE NEEDED?

Depending on individual goals, patients typically need between 6–12 treatments. Kass Precision Medicine offers GAINSWave preventative maintenance programs in Seattle, Bellevue, and surrounding areas to optimize performance and maintain results.

SHOCKWAVE THERAPY RESULTS - HOW LONG DO THEY LAST?

The effects of GAINSWave therapy have been medically proven to last between one and two years. A recent European study using Doppler ultrasound imaging demonstrated that patients appreciated improved blood flow in the penis one year after treatment.

Nearly 75% of men with erectile appreciated a reversal of their condition and reported enhanced sexual performance following shockwave therapy treatments. Following GAINSWave procedures, most patients with erectile dysfunction were able to reduce or discontinue their oral erectile dysfunction medications.

Kass Precision Medicine - YOUR BEST CHOICE AS A GAINSWAVE BELLEVUE PROVIDER

  • Dr. Kate Kass piloted the original GAINSWave program with Dr. Gaines. She was one of the few doctors in the U.S. to initially appreciate the potential of shockwave therapy for treating patients with erectile dysfunction. Dr. Kass has performed more GAINSWave treatments in the area than any other doctor.

  • Our clinic is dedicated to having a doctor or nurse perform the treatment - unlike other clinics where non-medical staff often conduct this therapy.

  • Kass Precision Medicine brings a comprehensive approach to treating ED and assisting men who simply want to enhance their sexual performance. Dr. Kass spends an average of one hour with each patient during the initial appointment to assess his lifestyle and health history. A comprehensive blood panel is then ordered to ensure a thorough evaluation of everything from testosterone levels and cardiovascular health to thyroid function, all of which may contribute to ED.

  • Patients usually begin their treatment package on the first day. During a follow-up visit, Dr. Kass reviews lab work and any other variables that may be contributing to ED or whatever issue they may be experiencing. We often combines GAINSWave therapy treatments with platelet-rich plasma (P-Shot) for optimal results.

THE TECHNOLOGY DIFFERENCE

Kass Precision Medicine employs two kinds of shockwave devices - “focused” and “radial”, both approved by the FDA for musculoskeletal issues. There are over 40 studies that support the efficacy of shockwave therapy for erectile dysfunction, the majority of which use a focused shockwave device. We use shockwave devices manufactured by Storz Medical, an industry leader that leverages over 75 years of medical research and development. These are both “classified medical” devices - which can only be purchased and overseen by a medical professional. 

A focused device is a more powerful device that penetrates deeper into the tissue, while a radial device affects shallower tissue. The focused device casts a shockwave similar to a laser beam - compared to a radial device that transmits a wider, shallower beam. With the support of the majority of the literature, the focused shockwave device creates a more intense response in the tissue - making it more effective at treating moderate to severe cases of ED. It is rare to find a clinic that offers focused shockwave therapy - likely because these devices require higher-level medical providers to operate them (i.e., a doctor or registered nurse) and are more expensive. Kass Precision Medicine offers radial and focused shockwave therapy because she is dedicated to providing the most effective and evidence-based solutions.

Ever since shockwave therapy became popular in the United States, several companies have developed sub-par devices that they state are capable of treating erectile dysfunction. Many are sold directly to consumers - and can even be purchased on Amazon! However, it’s important to note that the efficacy of these devices has not been proven, and they should be used with extreme caution, if at all. 

GAINSWAVE SHOCKWAVE THERAPY TREATMENTS - SUPERIOR TO OTHER ED SOLUTIONS

GAINSWave may seem almost too good to be true; however, it’s a proven solution.

GAINSWave therapy:

  • Is surgery- and drug-free

  • Is non-invasive, with little or no known side effects

  • Addresses poor blood flow - the root cause of ED

  • Is a straightforward, in-office procedure taking only approximately 20-30 minutes per treatment

  • Provides long-lasting results with no necessary downtime

GAINSWAVE AND ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION MEDICATION - A COMPARISON

With shockwave therapy, there is no need to take pills or spend a lot of money to constantly refill expensive prescriptions. Additionally, patients don’t have to experience the harmful side effects that are associated with oral ED medications. Shockwave therapy is ideal for men who can’t take oral ED medications, such as men with heart disease, diabetes, or high blood pressure. And, unlike oral ED drugs such as Viagra, GAINSWave can also treat Peyronie’s Disease.
