Last Updated: 09/11/2025

If you haven’t actually used The Phoenix, you might be wondering what it’s all about and what The Phoenix protocol involves.
More than 130,000 men have had success using The Phoenix. If you want to become one of them, here’s what you’ll experience while using this at-home acoustic soundwave therapy device.
What Is The Phoenix?
The Phoenix is an at-home acoustic soundwave therapy device, also called acoustic shockwave therapy, acoustic wave therapy, or low-intensity extracorporeal shockwave therapy (Li-ESWT). It delivers powerful soundwaves into your penile tissue. These acoustic waves break down microplaque that builds up inside penile blood vessels. This improves blood flow in existing vessels.
The Phoenix also stimulates new vessel growth, which brings oxygen, stem cells, and key nutrients to the penis. The result is better sexual health and improved sexual performance.
How The Phoenix Protocol Works
The Phoenix is easy to use, thanks to a smart guidance system. Here’s how the protocol works:
First, track your baseline using the smart ring. Using the smart ring is optional, but tracking your firmness, before and after using The Phoenix can give you an objective way to measure how well The Phoenix is working.
You’ll perform treatments 2X per week. The treatments last 20 minutes.
After plugging in The Phoenix, you’ll apply a drop of water-based lubricant to the tip.
Following the smart guidance system, you’ll put the device into treatment mode and move the stainless steel treatment tip along the surface of your penis shaft.
You’ll follow several treatment lines, ensuring all of the tissue is reached from different angles. In total, you’ll cover 5 zones with gentle acoustic waves.
During your treatment, The Phoenix mechanically produces gentle shockwaves that are non-invasively transferred through the tip, deep into the tissue of your penis. Over the course of multiple treatments, these shockwaves safely optimize your sexual health.
The Phoenix is usually used on a flaccid penis. If an erection occurs, you don’t need to stop treatment.
You conduct Phoenix treatments for 30 days, then give yourself a rest for another 30 days. At day 60, you resume treatments and then rest for another 30 days. The rest periods allow blood vessels to recover and your body to build new blood vessels in the penis.

What You’ll Feel While Using The Phoenix
Treatments with The Phoenix feel like a gentle tapping or vibration and are performed externally. Most men describe it as comfortable and easy to do in just a few minutes. The smart ring is also lightweight and adjustable for a secure but comfortable fit.
Some men experience mild bruising due to too much pressure or increased sensitivity in the treatment area. The Phoenix treatments should never be painful—reduce pressure if you experience any discomfort. If needed, take a short break from treatments to allow the area to recover.
You can use 4% lidocaine numbing cream for added comfort. A sample of the cream is included with your purchase, and you can buy more on our website if you need it.
What Can You Expect From Treatments
Some guys notice a lot of improvement in their sexual function within 30 days or less. For others, it can take 60 - 90 days. Remember that using The Phoenix is like working out at the gym. You would not expect to see improvements overnight.
77% of men using The Phoenix said they got hard more easily, even with less stimulation.
89% reported maintaining their erection from start to finish.
85% noticed increased firmness and fullness.
95% felt more in control and confident during sex.
After using The Phoenix, many guys also report having morning wood for the first time in years. For example, one Phoenix user reported, “I noticed about halfway through [treatments] that I am having some real nice morning wood every single time I get up at night.” Nocturnal erections are key to not only sexual health but also to make sure your cardiovascular system is in good shape, as we wrote about in a previous blog post.
Other guys have reported increased sensitivity during sex after using The Phoenix. In other words, they have stronger pleasurable sensations when their partner is stimulating them.
What You Can Track With The Smart Ring
If you use The Phoenix along with the smart ring, you can track many measures of sexual health that can show you how well your Phoenix is working. The smart ring measures firmness, duration of your erections, and how many erections you have in your sleep. It’s an objective way to show how much your erectile health is improving.
The smart ring also has direct benefits on sexual function. For example, it helps trap blood in the penis for firmer, stronger erections.
How Safe Is The Phoenix?
The Phoenix is based on a technology called Li-ESWT that’s been safely used for more than a decade. We’ve also incorporated numerous safety features into The Phoenix, including a 36-hour lockout after each treatment, which prevents potentially harmful overtreatment.
Your Solution to Better Sexual Health
The Phoenix is a non-invasive, painless way to boost your performance in the bedroom. The protocol is easy to use, safe, and highly effective. Combining The Phoenix with the smart ring gives men the chance to track the effectiveness of their treatment as well as monitor important aspects of cardio health.
