EMTT (Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy)
High-energy magnetic fields that influence cellular activity and tissue metabolism. No physical contact. Often used for deeper tissue and chronic joint stiffness.
Regenerative Medicine · Bay Area
EMTT, focused shockwave, and radial pressure wave combined with biomechanics. Not just masking pain. Free Discovery Visit.
At Competitive Edge, regenerative therapies (EMTT, focused shockwave, and radial pressure wave) are combined with movement analysis and biomechanics to help tissue actually heal, not just mask pain. Start with a free 30-minute Discovery Visit to find out what's right for you.

Regenerative medicine, combined with movement
Every regenerative plan at CEPT starts with a biomechanical evaluation. Technology like force plates, motion analysis, and muscle activation testing guides which therapy fits your tissue, your injury, and your goals.
High-energy magnetic fields that influence cellular activity and tissue metabolism. No physical contact. Often used for deeper tissue and chronic joint stiffness.
Targeted acoustic energy for deeper tendon and joint conditions.
Broader mechanical energy for superficial muscle and tendon issues.
Never used in isolation
How it works
How you move, where load is accumulating, and why tissue is struggling.
The right regenerative therapy paired with movement retraining and strength progression.
A plan designed to build tissue capacity so improvements actually last.
Real patients, real results
Struggled with shin splints through 2 training blocks. Shockwave therapy plus the gait retraining they prescribed fixed it in 4 weeks. They don't just blast the area with modalities — they find WHY it's happening. Running pain-free for the first time in 18 months.

Quick answers
Tendon injuries (Achilles, patellar, proximal hamstring), joint pain (knee, shoulder, hip, elbow), plantar fasciitis, chronic muscle tightness, and overuse injuries from running, lifting, or repetitive training.
Sometimes, yes. For chronic tendon and soft tissue issues, regenerative therapies can be effective and avoid surgery entirely. For acute injuries or specific structural problems, surgery may still be the right call. Evaluation tells us which path makes sense.
Cortisone suppresses symptoms. Regenerative therapies support actual tissue healing. Many people come to us to avoid repeated cortisone shots.
Sensations range from mild discomfort to deep, dull pressure depending on the therapy. EMTT is often described as subtle. Shockwave is firmer. Everything is adjusted for your tolerance.
Varies by therapy and condition. Shockwave plans typically run about 6 sessions. EMTT is often used over a longer progression. You'll get a clear plan at evaluation.
We're cash-pay only — we don't accept insurance, and that's intentional. Insurance-based PT caps session time and dictates treatment. Our cash model lets us spend a full hour one-on-one with you each session, use the research-grade technology that actually works, and build a plan around your goals. We work in personalized care packages tailored to what you need, with transparent pricing discussed during your free Discovery Visit.
