The Rocket is a home treatment device designed to relieve erectile dysfunction symptoms by delivering shockwaves to the penis. It promises the same sort of results as those achieved in a clinical setting.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

The Rocket, the brainchild of Stephanie and Dustin Wolff, is a personal shockwave device that its co-inventors claim can effectively treat erectile dysfunction, eliminating the need for oral ED medications such as Viagra. Their new company, Launch Medical, was formed to publicize and market the novel device.<\/p>\n

The technology behind the Rocket isn\u2019t new. In fact, clinics around the world, particularly in Europe but increasingly in the United States as well, already offer the same sort of low-intensity shockwave therapy the Rocket is said to deliver. However, this therapy is expensive at those clinics. A series of treatments could very well set you back thousands of dollars.<\/p>\n

Designed for Home Use<\/h3>\n

By contrast, the Rocket is a personal device designed for home use and retailing for well under $1,000. In fact, the Rocket was offered to early investors in the device\u2019s Indiegogo.com campaign<\/a> for as little as $399, 46 percent lower than its list price of $749.<\/p>\n

Scheduled to begin shipping sometime in early 2020, the Wolffs\u2019 device now has its own website — GetMyRocket.com<\/a>. There it is billed as \u201cthe first home treatment clinically proven to reverse ED.\u201d And in late December, the device was still being offered at a pre-sale discount of $399. When the Rocket begins shipping, the price will return to $749.<\/p>\n

How the Rocket Works<\/h3>\n

In a brief video clip at GetMyRocket.com, the Wolffs introduce urologist Paul Thompson, M.D., as Launch Medical\u2019s chief medical officer. Thomson explains that the Rocket\u2019s shockwaves relieve erectile dysfunction by helping to break up fatty plaques that line artery walls and by facilitating the growth and development of new blood vessels. This is a process known as angiogenesis or neovascularization.<\/p>\n

Whether the Rocket can actually deliver the same results achieved by high-tech shockwave equipment in medical clinics remains to be seen. After all, the device is not yet in common use and won\u2019t be until after it begins shipping early in 2020.<\/p>\n

Won\u2019t Treat All Types of ED<\/h3>\n

However, like the oral ED medications it says it will replace, the Rocket is designed to relieve ED caused by insufficient blood flow to the penis. And while that is the leading cause of male impotence, it is not the only cause. Men whose ED is psychological in origin would be unlikely to benefit from treatment with the Rocket.<\/p>\n

In a section of the Rocket website devoted to frequently asked questions, it\u2019s stressed that the device delivers a mechanical shock or vibration rather than an electric shock. This should help to ease the fears of those who are wary of delivering multiple electric shocks to their genitals.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, you can rely on the tried and true ED medications.
