SoftWave

What is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave Therapy, or Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (EWST),  is a non-invasive treatment that involves the delivery of shock waves to an injured area to promote healing. This treatment produces highly effective shock waves that initiate biological regeneration processes at the cellular level.

Shock wave technology has been around since the 1950s. SoftWave is an advanced shock wave device using electrohydraulic spark gap technology. Its patented design features a parabolic reflector applicator that produces highly effective, unfocused, low-intensity, parallel shock waves delivered at 3355mph. The applicator spreads energy to a large area of both superficial and deep tissue soliciting a biological response to initiate the body’s natural healing process. Its patented technology allows for deep tissue penetration, promoting accelerated recovery, reducing inflammation, and increasing blood circulation without the need for surgery or medication

What to expect

The procedure averages 10-15 minutes depending upon the size of the treatment area and diagnosis. A gel is applied to the surface area to be treated. The applicator produces pulses as the clinician moves around the treatment area. During therapy, communication with the provider is necessary to identify treatment areas and monitor progress.

Advanced Healing for your pain

How Does it Work?

SoftWave uses patented technology to address an injured area and successfully accelerate the body’s natural healing process by stimulating processes at the cellular level. This ingenious device:

• Increases blood supply
• Decreases inflammation
• Stimulates and activates cellular repair
• Remodels, repairs and regenerates tissue
• Accelerates healing
• Restoration of tissue elasticity
• Activation of Resident Stem Cells
• Endogenous growth factor activation
• Reduces acute and chronic pain

The patented SoftWave applicator makes it possible to produce a wider and deeper therapeutic energy zone greater than all other devices on the market. This results in greater healing and outcomes as the energy is spread over a vastly larger and deeper area. The device makes it possible to solicit a strong biological response without cellular trauma.

This means you get better results and faster healing!
