SoftWave Therapy is a breakthrough, non-invasive treatment that stimulates your body’s natural healing process, reducing pain, inflammation, and stiffness.
It’s ideal for people seeking a gentle treatment or dealing with widespread or acute pain. It is a type of low-intensity shockwave therapy that uses patented unfocused acoustic waves to treat a broad area. It stimulates tissue regeneration by enhancing blood flow, reducing inflammation, and activating stem cells without causing significant discomfort.
The goal of SoftWave Therapy is to stimulate your body’s natural healing and pain relief process and eliminate mild to severe pain without drugs, injections, or invasive surgeries.
SoftWave therapy is a non-invasive treatment designed to provide pain relief and promote tissue healing. It works by stimulating the body’s natural healing processes, activating stem cells, and improving blood flow. This helps reduce inflammation, alleviate chronic and acute pain, and accelerate recovery from injuries. The therapy is versatile, making it effective for a wide range of conditions, including musculoskeletal issues, neuropathic pain, and sports injuries.
One of the main benefits of SoftWave therapy is its comfort. Unlike traditional high-intensity shockwave treatments, it is virtually painless, making it ideal for patients with sensitive conditions or widespread discomfort. With no downtime and minimal side effects, it’s a safe and convenient option for long-term pain management and improved mobility.
During a SoftWave therapy session, we will begin by discussing your condition and treatment goals. Once the target area is identified, we will apply a conductive gel to ensure the effective transmission of acoustic waves. The SoftWave device is then moved over the treatment area, delivering gentle waves. Most patients describe the sensation as mild vibrations or tingling, with no significant discomfort.
Sessions typically last 5-10 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated. After the session, you can resume normal activities immediately. Many patients experience noticeable pain relief right away, while others see continued improvement over the following days as the body’s healing processes are activated.
Shockwave Therapy uses high-energy acoustic waves, and is usually very targeted. It may not be suitable for patients with certain medical conditions (e.g., blood clotting disorders, pacemakers).
SoftWave Therapy uses lower intensity waves, and usually covers a wider treatment area. It is often more comfortable for patients with sensitive conditions.
Some patients feel a mild tapping or pulsing on the skin, while others experience some discomfort in the treatment area. Some say it feels like a rubber band snapping against the skin. Your provider can adjust the intensity. The level of discomfort may also depend on the amount of pain the patient is already experiencing.
SoftWave is a patented and FDA-cleared treatment that activates the body’s natural healing process. It is a safe, non-invasive, and drug-free option for treating a variety of conditions, including chronic pain, inflammation, orthopedic conditions, and musculoskeletal injuries.
Treatment usually lasts between 5-10 minutes and does not require anesthesia or numbing agents. Downtime for recovery after treatment is not typically needed. SoftWave is trusted by leading medical providers across the country, including Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, Shepherd’s Center, and more, as well as professional sports organizations including MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL, MLS, NCAA, PGA, USGA USATF, WNBA, Premier League, and UFC.
Generally there are no side effects from SoftWave therapy and if there are, they are minimal and non-restrictive. SoftWave does not cause bruising or swelling, although some patients may experience slight redness and soreness that typically subsides within one to two days. While recovery downtime is not usually needed, we recommend avoiding high-impact movements or exercise for the first 24-48 hours.
SoftWave therapy can be safely combined with prescription medication in most cases.
Yes, Softwave is generally safe for patients with blood pressure conditions, like high or low blood pressure.
