What is the SoftWave™ treatment process like?
SoftWave™ therapy is indeed a swift and convenient non-invasive procedure, typically lasting between 10 to 15 minutes, and it doesn’t necessitate any recovery downtime. During the treatment, ultrasound gel is applied to the targeted area, followed by the gentle placement of the SoftWave device, which administers shock waves to the affected region. While most patients report feeling a gentle tapping or pulsing sensation, some may experience mild discomfort or pain. However, the use of anesthesia or numbing agents is unnecessary. Effective communication with the provider during the session can aid in identifying treatment areas and monitoring progress effectively.
Is SoftWave™ painful?
SoftWave therapy stands out as a non-invasive and non-surgical treatment option. Sensations experienced during the therapy may vary among patients, with some feeling only a mild tapping or pulsing sensation on the skin, while others may experience slight pain or discomfort in the treated area. Specialists have the flexibility to adjust the intensity of the treatment if discomfort becomes significant. It’s worth noting that the level of discomfort can be influenced by the patient’s existing pain levels. However, despite these potential sensations, most patients find the discomfort tolerable throughout the brief duration of the treatment, typically lasting just 10-15 minutes on average.
What results should I expect from SoftWave™ Therapy?
SoftWave™ Therapy offers both immediate and lasting relief for eligible candidates. Following a single session, patients commonly report a reduction in pain ranging from 20-50% and an enhancement in mobility, with the effects lasting from several hours to several days. While some individuals may notice improvement after just one session, others may require multiple treatments to experience significant benefits.
Unlike conventional pain medications and injections that primarily address symptoms, SoftWave™ Therapy aims to activate the body’s natural healing mechanisms at the cellular level. By stimulating these innate processes, SoftWave™ facilitates genuine and enduring results, providing a non-invasive alternative for managing pain and promoting recovery.
Does SoftWave™ really work?
SoftWave therapy boasts a clinically proven success rate ranging from 60% to 91% for addressing musculoskeletal and general pain complaints. This patented and FDA-cleared technology has gained the trust of esteemed medical institutions such as the Cleveland Clinic and Memorial Sloan Kettering, along with professional sports teams like the Chicago Cubs and Pittsburgh Steelers.
Continued clinical research is exploring additional applications for this potent technology, underscoring its versatility and efficacy in addressing a wide range of medical conditions and injuries.
Is SoftWave™ FDA cleared?
SoftWave™ therapy has earned FDA(510k) clearance for multiple indications, including enhancing blood supply, activating connective tissue, providing temporary pain relief, managing chronic diabetic foot ulcers, and addressing acute second-degree burns.
Furthermore, SoftWave™ is patented and backed by clinical evidence, boasting a success rate ranging from 60% to 91% for treating various musculoskeletal and general pain complaints. This therapy is relied upon by prestigious medical institutions like the Cleveland Clinic, Shepherd’s Center, and Memorial Sloan Kettering, as well as esteemed professional sports teams such as the Chicago Cubs and Pittsburgh Steelers.
What makes SoftWave™ therapy a more effective shock wave treatment?
SoftWave represents a significant leap forward in shock wave technology, revolutionizing tissue healing and regeneration across various healthcare fields including orthopedics, traumatology, wound care, aesthetics, and urology.
Unlike traditional shock wave therapies, SoftWave utilizes patented low-intensity unfocused shock waves that can penetrate a wider and deeper area of tissue (7cm x 12cm). In contrast, focused shock waves (1cm x 12cm) and radial waves (2cm x 2cm) are not true shock waves. This distinction makes SoftWave the sole genuine unfocused shock wave treatment currently available. By delivering powerful shock waves without causing microtrauma, SoftWave effectively triggers the body’s natural healing processes.
How many SoftWave™ treatment sessions are needed?
If deemed suitable for treatment, your SoftWave provider will likely propose a treatment plan consisting of 6 to 12 sessions. The exact number of sessions required will hinge on the nature of your injuries and how your body responds to therapy. Additionally, your plan may encompass supplementary recommendations to bolster the healing process, such as specific stretches or dietary adjustments.
Is SoftWave™ therapy safe?
SoftWave stands as a patented and FDA-cleared therapy, leveraging the body’s innate healing mechanisms. It offers a safe, non-invasive, and medication-free approach to addressing various conditions such as chronic pain, inflammation, orthopedic issues, and musculoskeletal injuries.
Administered at licensed medical facilities, including doctors’ offices and chiropractic clinics, SoftWave sessions typically last 10-15 minutes and entail no need for anesthesia or numbing agents. Moreover, patients usually do not require downtime for recovery post-treatment.
Esteemed medical institutions like Cleveland Clinic, Shepherd’s Center, and Memorial Sloan Kettering have placed their trust in SoftWave, attesting to its efficacy and safety. During your initial appointment as a new patient, your SoftWave provider will be available to address any medical concerns or conditions that might influence your eligibility for treatment.
Does SoftWave™ Therapy have side effects?
SoftWave™ Therapy boasts minimal and non-restrictive side effects. Unlike some treatments, it doesn’t result in bruising or swelling. However, a few patients might encounter mild redness and soreness, typically dissipating within one to two days post-treatment. While recovery downtime isn’t typically necessary, it’s advisable to refrain from high-impact movements or exercise during the initial 24-48 hours after the session.
Does combining SoftWave™ with other treatments lead to better results?
Absolutely, SoftWave therapy stands as a potent standalone treatment for numerous musculoskeletal conditions. However, in certain scenarios, combining it with other therapies like physical therapy, chiropractic care, massage, and soft tissue mobilization can not only expedite the healing process but also enhance overall outcomes. This collaborative approach ensures a more comprehensive and tailored treatment plan to address specific patient needs and optimize results.
