It is a low-intensity, extracorporeal shockwave therapy, a machine that gives acoustic signal waves and a shock to tissues, similar to a lithotripsy machine that treats kidney stones. The idea is that you can generate a mechanical energy effect on tissues and can get potential benefits by stimulating the growth of new blood vessels (angiogenesis) in the male sexual organ (penis). The stimulation of local chemical factors in the tissues - growth factor, paracrine signaling (cell-to-cell communication), maybe even somehow activates stem cells.
