New agreement brings ultra-portable, battery-operated focused shock wave technology to equine veterinarians nationwide
CARMEL, IND — March 5, 2026 — Curative Sound, a medical technology company specializing in focused extracorporeal shock wave therapy (f-ESWT), today announced a distribution agreement with Patterson Vet Supply, Inc.’s Equine Division. The partnership expands access to Curative Sound’s CS-Pro VET device through Patterson’s nationwide equine sales and support network.
Shock wave therapy is widely utilized in equine and companion animal medicine to support the treatment of musculoskeletal and soft-tissue conditions. The CS-Pro VET is the world’s first ultra-portable, battery-operated, piezoelectric f-ESWT system engineered to meet the demands of equine practice, whether in-clinic or in the field.
“Equine practitioners consistently tell us they value three things: power, portability, and predictable performance,” said Chris Welsh, CEO of Curative Sound. “The CS-Pro VET delivers all three, while also offering a low total cost of ownership with no preset shock count limits and no recurring reconditioning costs. Partnering with Patterson’s equine team allows us to rapidly expand access to focused shock wave technology built for real-world veterinary practice.”
Patterson’s Equine Division brings deep specialization and a dedicated team focused on equine veterinary professionals.
“Equine veterinarians operate in uniquely demanding environments, and our focus is to provide them with the best equipment, technology and support to thrive and succeed,” said Jon Butz, Director of Equipment, U.S., Patterson Veterinary. “They need equipment that is powerful, reliable, and easy to transport. The CS-Pro VET meets those needs, and we’re excited to make it available to our equine customers.”
Under the agreement, equine practices can purchase the CS-Pro VET directly through Patterson’s Equine Division, supported by its sales representatives and customer service infrastructure.
