9&10 Logo

Thousands of diabetics undergo amputation because wounds, mostly on feet and legs, just won’t heal.

Up until now, hyperbaric oxygen was the primary option, but it is expensive and time-consuming.

In Healthy Living, we take a look at a quick, new shockwave treatment that acoustically stimulates deep tissue, helping to heal diabetic wounds.

DermaPACE is being evaluated in six states and the cost per treatment has not been announced.

The hyperbaric treatments run $500 to $1,000.
