One of the most important components of our cells is the cell surface membrane. It controls the movement of substances into and out of cells. It allows the cell to take in nutrients and prevents toxins from entering cells.
PPC, or phosphatidylcholine, is a type of molecule called a phospholipid. It is one of the major components of the cell surface membrane and our levels of PPC decrease with age. Reduced levels of PPC compromise the cell membrane which can lead to chronic illness so there are many benefits to replenishing it.
PPC aids in the removal of arterial plaque, reducing your risk of heart attacks and strokes.
Cholesterol Benefits
Cholesterol levels are controlled by fat and protein molecules known as lipoproteins. There are beneficial lipoproteins (HDLs) which carry cholesterol to tissues, and harmful lipoproteins (LDLs) which remove it.
The PPC infusion can improve vascular health as it lowers cholesterol by increasing the amount of good lipoproteins to treat and prevent the risk of heart conditions such as atherosclerosis.
Acetyl Choline
Additionally, PPC is a source of choline which is required by the brain to produce a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine. Acetylcholine is one of the most common neurotransmitters and it important for memory, focus and cognition as well as muscular movement. The PPC infusion can mitigate the risk of neurodegenerative disorders such Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease as well as improving general mental health. In order to maximise PPC positive effect on the brain, an IV treatment is best as oral supplements cannot cross the Blood Brain Barrier in order to act on the brain.

Why Combine Focused & Radial Shockwave?
While some clinics offer just one type, at Levitas, we combine both focused and radial shockwave therapy in each session. Why?Â
- Focused shockwave penetrates deeper, making it ideal for tendons, calcifications, and chronic inflammation.Â
- Radial shockwave disperses energy across a wider area — perfect for releasing muscle tension and aiding in muscle recovery.Â
Together, this dual-modality approach enhances tissue healing from the inside out. Sessions last 45–60 minutes, giving us time to treat both superficial and deep pain effectively — and that’s why our outcomes are consistently better.Â
Benefits of Shockwave Therapy for Muscle Recovery
Shockwave therapy is not only for injury — it’s also a powerful tool for post-exercise recovery and sports rehabilitation. Whether you’re an athlete or someone just trying to stay active, the benefits include:Â
- Faster recovery from intense workoutsÂ
- Reduced delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS)Â
- Improved circulation to fatigued musclesÂ
- Loosening of tight fascia and trigger pointsÂ
- Enhanced performance and injury preventionÂ
If you’re in Wimbledon, Knightsbridge, or Guildford, our local clinics can support your recovery journey without disrupting your routine.Â
What to Expect During Your Treatment
- Medical Assessment: Your treatment is led by a doctor, not just a technician. We diagnose your issue thoroughly.Â
- Shockwave Application: We apply both radial and focused waves in a 45–60 minute session.Â
- Immediate Walk-Out: No need for anaesthesia or rest. Resume work or training the same day.Â
- Follow-Up: Most people need 3–6 weekly sessions. We assess and adapt your plan each time.Â
