A pulse wave generator includes a housing having a pressure field generator from which individually controllable pressure pulses can be emitted, a pressure pulse focusing unit by which the pressure pulses can be focused at the focusing point in, or on, a body of a living being, a pressure coupler, from which the pressure pulses can be transmitted to the body, a controller for the intensity and point in time of each pressure pulse, at least one further field generator being integrated by which the individually controllable field pulses can be generated in the focusing point and the intensity and time of each pulse can be controlled.
