SoftWave Therapy in Draper

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.

Conditions SoftWave Can Treat

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.

Benefits of SoftWave Therapy

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.


Key Benefits of SoftWave Therapy:

  • Reduces Pain and Inflammation: SoftWave therapy helps modulate inflammation and alleviate both chronic and acute pain, offering relief even for long-standing discomfort.
  • Promotes Tissue Regeneration: By stimulating and recruiting the body’s mesenchymal cells, it supports the repair, remodeling, and regeneration of tissues, accelerating recovery from injuries and wear-and-tear.
  • Improves Blood Supply and Wound Healing: Enhanced blood flow aids in delivering nutrients and oxygen to damaged areas, speeding up wound healing and improving overall recovery.
  • Antibacterial Effects: SoftWave therapy has been shown to create an antibacterial environment, reducing the risk of infection and further supporting the healing process.


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.

What to Expect During Your SoftWave Therapy Session

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.

Common Questions About SoftWave Therapy

You Don't Have To Live In Pain...

They had pain. They found relief here. You can too.

"I have been going to Dr. Gordon‘s office since 2010. Throughout my life I’ve had numerous adjustments and chiropractic appointments, which did not help my lower back problem. After going to Dr. Gordon, I am still a regular patient and go at least once a month. I cannot say enough about what he did for me, which I believe negated the need for surgery. I recommend Dr. Gordon to friends and family and anyone who is in need of an all-around great holistic chiropractor."
"Dr. Gordon is amazing. He has helped relieve so much of the pain I have in my lower back and In my neck. I thought at one point surgery was going to be my only option but with the decompression and adjustments I have received I know that I won't need to have neck surgery. He is very compassionate and a great listener. I would highly recommend him and his wonderful staff."
"After trying every “traditional” method to help with my lower back pain, I decided to give Corner Canyon Pain & Medicine a try. I have been skeptical of the merits of chiropractic care for a long time but Dr. Gordon has helped to change my opinion. I went through several weeks of lumbar decompression and I’m now pain free for the first time in 18 months. I wish I had gone here sooner."
