Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common but often under-discussed condition that affects many men. Fortunately, there are several treatment options available — one of the most popular non-invasive choices today is shockwave therapy. In this article, we explore how this treatment works, who it is for, and the shockwave therapy cost in Singapore.

What Is Shockwave Therapy For Erectile Dysfunction?
Shockwave therapy for ED, also known as Low-Intensity Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (Li-ESWT), is a non-surgical, drug-free treatment designed to improve blood flow to the penis. This therapy uses targeted sound waves to stimulate the growth of new blood vessels and restore natural erectile function.
Unlike oral medication, which provides temporary results, shockwave therapy targets the root cause of ED — poor blood circulation — making it a potentially long-term solution.
How Effective Is Shockwave Therapy?
Studies suggest that shockwave therapy may benefit men with mild to moderate erectile dysfunction, especially those who respond poorly to medications like Viagra or Cialis. Patients usually require six to twelve sessions, and many report improvement in erectile function within a few weeks.
Shockwave Therapy Cost In Singapore
If you are considering this treatment, one key factor to note is the cost. In Singapore, the cost of shockwave therapy for erectile dysfunction typically ranges from S$200 to S$400 per session.
Some clinics may offer package pricing if you commit to a full treatment cycle (e.g. six or more sessions), so it is worth inquiring during your consultation.
Is Shockwave Therapy Medisave-Claimable?
As of now, shockwave therapy for erectile dysfunction is not Medisave-claimable, since it is considered an elective outpatient treatment. Most insurance plans also do not cover it, but you may speak with a financial advisor for clarification on your coverage options.
Who Should Consider Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave therapy may be a good fit for:
- Men with mild to moderate ED.
- Those who do not want to rely on long-term medication.
- Individuals looking for a non-invasive, needle-free option.
- Patients who have not responded well to oral ED medication.
However, it may not be suitable for those with severe ED or underlying conditions such as nerve damage or advanced diabetes. Always consult a medical professional before beginning treatment.
