What is softwave therapy?

By using advanced acoustic shockwaves, SoftWave Therapy activates your body’s natural healing abilities—without surgery, drugs, needles, or downtime. This FDA-cleared technology gently delivers broad-focused energy waves deep into your tissues, where they stimulate blood flow, reduce inflammation, and trigger the release of your own stem cells to support real, long-lasting regeneration.

SoftWave therapy is rapidly transforming the approach to healing various musculoskeletal conditions. Utilizing advanced acoustic waves, this noninvasive technique stimulates the body’s natural healing processes, making it an attractive option for those seeking pain relief and tissue repair without surgery or medications. SoftWave therapy stands out because it can treat a wide-range of conditions.

For instance, it often provides significant relief for chronic pain disorders, including plantar fasciitis, tendinitis, and joint inflammation. Additionally, athletes and active individuals are drawn to this therapy due to its impressive results in accelerating recovery from injuries such as muscle strains, ligament sprains, and stress fractures.

Moreover, SoftWave therapy’s applications extend beyond sports injuries. It has demonstrated success in treating neuropathy, non-healing wounds, and even certain urologic conditions. Additionally, patients who have not responded to traditional treatments may finally find relief and improved mobility.



How Does SoftWave Therapy Work? 

SoftWave Therapy uses powerful, gentle acoustic waves to jumpstart your body’s natural healing process. By targeting damaged or inflamed tissue deep below the surface, the therapy increases blood flow, reduces inflammation, and activates stem cells. As a result, your body repair itself without drugs, needles, or surgery.

How SoftWave Therapy Gets to the Root Cause of a Condition

SoftWave Therapy offers more than just temporary relief because it targets and treats the underlying causes of pain and dysfunction, rather than simply masking the symptoms. Here’s how SoftWave Therapy targets the root of your condition:

Comprehensive and Lasting Relief

Addresses the origin of pain: By focusing on tissue repair, inflammation reduction, and cellular renewal, SoftWave therapy treats the root causes of many musculoskeletal and soft tissue conditions.

Minimizes medication dependence: Because it promotes true healing, SoftWave therapy can reduce the need for painkillers or anti-inflammatory drugs, offering a safer and more sustainable path to recovery.

Deep Tissue Penetration and Cellular Activation

  • Acoustic waves penetrate deep into the affected tissues, reaching areas that traditional therapies often miss. This enables SoftWave to directly target the source of pain or injury, not just the surface discomfort.
  • The therapy stimulates cellular activity through a process called mechanotransduction, which converts sound waves into biochemical signals that trigger healing responses within your body

Promoting Natural Healing Processes

Increases blood flow: SoftWave therapy encourages the formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis), which improves the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to damaged tissues. This process accelerates recovery and supporting long-term tissue health.

Reduces inflammation: By modulating inflammatory responses at the cellular level, SoftWave resolves chronic inflammation rather than just suppressing pain.

Activates stem cells: The treatment awakens dormant stem cells and directs them to the site of injury, where they support tissue repair and regeneration, helping to rebuild and strengthen damaged areas.

SoftWave Therapy FAQ

If SoftWave Therapy (Tissue Regenerative Therapy) is new to you, it’s worth noting how it’s revolutionizing the way people heal. This innovative therapy employs sound waves to:

  • Boost circulation and naturally speed up the healing process
  • Activate previously inactive stem cells, initiating a healing process that can continue for up to 12 months
  • Stimulate your body’s innate ability to heal itself


Although Softwave therapy has been available for a few years, its advantages are only just beginning to be widely recognized. If you’re just learning about SoftWave Therapy, you likely have many questions. That’s why we’re providing a SoftWave FAQ to get you started.

SoftWave Therapy is an innovative and highly effective method of treatment that utilizes high-energy sound waves to target areas of the body that are injured, degenerating, or experiencing pain. The energy waves deeply penetrate the tissues, activating stem cells and growth factors essential for the healing of muscles and connective tissues. It promotes metabolic activity, boosting blood flow, and encouraging cellular regeneration. For patients, this diminishes pain while simultaneously improving mobility and overall function.

SoftWave Therapy harnesses the power of electrohydraulic shock waves (sound waves) to stimulate your body’s natural healing processes.

Below is a breakdown of how SoftWave Therapy works:

The Treatment Process
Application: Our Simply Well Chiropractic team uses a handheld device to deliver gentle, broad-focused shockwaves to the affected area. We apply ultrasound gel to enhance conductivity and comfort during the session.
Stimulation: These shockwaves penetrate deep into injured tissues, promoting a cascade of healing responses at the cellular level.
Session Experience: Most patients feel a pulsing or tapping sensation. Treatments generally last 10 minutes, are well tolerated, and require no anesthesia or downtime.


How the Technology Works
Creation of Shockwaves: The device creates a spark in water, forming a plasma bubble. This burst of energy produces high-speed sound waves that pass through tissue, stimulating healing without causing injury.
Wide Coverage: Unlike older therapies, SoftWave distributes energy across a larger area, reaching both superficial and deep tissues and providing a more comfortable and effective session.


Biological Effects
SoftWave Therapy initiates multiple regenerative processes:
Increases Blood Flow: Enhanced circulation delivers oxygen and nutrients to aid tissue repair and regeneration.
Reduces Inflammation: Modulates the body’s inflammatory response, reducing pain and swelling.
Stimulates Stem Cells: Activates dormant stem cells and promotes the production of growth factors and cytokines, jump-starting tissue repair.
Breaks the Pain Cycle: Helps restore tissue function, decrease pain signals, and accelerate recovery.

The number of sessions you’ll need depends on your specific condition. In many cases, just 4 to 10 treatments are sufficient. At Simply Well Chiropractic, we usually recommend starting with a minimal number of sessions to observe how your body responds. If you need additional care, we can add more treatments at the end. Each session typically takes about 10 minutes.

SoftWave Therapy is a safe procedure, non-invasive treatment that is generally well tolerated. The most common reactions are soreness or tenderness at the treatment site, but sometimes there is a brief increase in discomfort before improvement begins.

These effects usually resolve within 24 hours and are considered a normal part of the body’s healing response. Rarely, more pronounced side effects such as numbness, tingling, or skin discoloration may occur, and in exceptional cases, headaches or vasovagal responses (such as fainting) have been reported

Serious or long-term complications are extremely uncommon.

SoftWave Therapy is not recommended for individuals who are pregnant, have active cancer, or possess certain implanted medical devices.

Overall, most patients don’t experience any side effects. Those who do find the side effects manageable.

Patients undergoing SoftWave Therapy can expect a significant reduction in pain and inflammation in the treated area. Additionally, many individuals experience improved mobility and function.

The therapy works by stimulating the body’s natural healing response, which not only provides symptomatic relief but also promotes long-term tissue repair and regeneration. Therefore, healing often continues for weeks after the treatment plan is completed, as the biological processes initiated by SoftWave Therapy persist in the affected tissues.

For some, maintenance sessions may be recommended to help sustain results and prevent recurrence of pain.
