Physical Damage: Because Shockwave Totem deals physical damage it can be boosted by supports and passive skills that are more commonly used to modify attacks, such as the Added Fire Damage support gem or passive skills which grant Physical Damage with no other qualifier, such as Path of the Warrior.

Knockback Distance: As skills cast by the totem are affected by all modifiers affecting the player, the knockback distance is also increased by your passives.
