Neuropathy Treatment in Cincinnati with Softwave therapy
Schedule your $49 Discovery Session today!
If you are living with burning, tingling, or numbness in your hands or feet, you do not have to accept it as your new normal. At Simply Well Chiropractic’s Cincinnati SoftWave Therapy clinic, we focus on neuropathy treatment that supports actual nerve healing instead of just masking symptoms with more medications. Whether your neuropathy is diabetic, idiopathic, or chemotherapy‑induced, our goal is to help you walk, sleep, and move with more comfort and confidence again.
What is Neuropathy?
Neuropathy, often called peripheral neuropathy, happens when the nerves outside your brain and spinal cord become damaged or irritated. This can affect how your nerves send signals and lead to symptoms such as:
- Tingling or “pins and needles” in the hands or feet
- Burning or stabbing pain
- Numbness or reduced sensation
- Muscle weakness
- Loss of balance or coordination
Neuropathy can be related to diabetes, chemotherapy, injuries, surgery, infections, autoimmune conditions, or may appear without a clear cause. No matter the source, the underlying issue is nerve damage—and effective care must focus on supporting nerve health, not just masking symptoms.
Types of Neuropathy We Treat in Cincinnati
Understanding Your Neuropathy: Type, Cause, and Treatment
Neuropathy is not one single condition; it is a family of nerve problems with different causes and patterns. Understanding the type of neuropathy you have helps us build a more precise, effective plan around SoftWave Therapy and lifestyle support.
Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy
Diabetes is the most common cause of peripheral neuropathy in the United States, eventually affecting about half of all people with diabetes. Chronic high blood sugar can injure small blood vessels and nerves, particularly in the feet and lower legs, leading to burning, tingling, numbness, and loss of balance.
Typical signs of diabetic neuropathy include:
- Burning or stabbing pain in the feet, especially at night
- Numbness or “walking on cotton” sensation
- Loss of temperature sensitivity, making it hard to feel hot or cold
- Foot wounds that heal slowly or go unnoticed
Traditional care often relies heavily on medications to dull the pain plus blood sugar management to slow further damage. At Simply Well Chiropractic, we add SoftWave Therapy as a regenerative option designed to improve local circulation, support small‑fiber nerve health, and help restore more normal sensation over time.
Idiopathic Peripheral Neuropathy
In many people, testing does not reveal a single clear cause for their neuropathy; this is called idiopathic peripheral neuropathy. Even though the cause is unclear, the burning, tingling, numbness, and balance problems are very real and can be just as disruptive.
People with idiopathic neuropathy often hear some version of “we don’t know why this is happening—just manage it.” Our approach is to respect the uncertainty while still focusing on what we can control: improving circulation, decreasing nerve irritation, encouraging tissue repair, and helping you protect your feet and mobility with practical, neurologist‑friendly strategies.
Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN)
Many life‑saving chemotherapy drugs can cause nerve damage that leads to pain, numbness, or sensitivity in the hands and feet. For some patients, chemotherapy‑induced neuropathy improves slowly after treatment; for others, it can persist and interfere with walking, gripping objects, and performing daily tasks.
Common CIPN symptoms include:
- Numbness, tingling, or burning in hands and feet
- Sensitivity to cold or touch
- Weakness or clumsiness when using your hands
- Trouble with buttons, zippers, or fine motor tasks
Our Cincinnati clinic uses SoftWave Therapy as a non‑drug, non‑invasive option to support nerve recovery alongside your oncology team’s plan. Because SoftWave does not interfere with systemic medications, it can often be incorporated safely during survivorship and recovery with proper coordination.
Other Neuropathy Types We See
While diabetic, idiopathic, and chemotherapy‑induced neuropathy are the most common in our clinic, we also regularly see neuropathy linked to:
- Autoimmune conditions that trigger nerve‑targeting inflammation
- Post‑surgical or traumatic nerve injury
- Age‑related circulation changes and nerve degeneration
- Medication‑related nerve irritation from non‑cancer drugs
In every case, we assess your overall health history and coordinate with your other providers so SoftWave Therapy complements—not replaces—your medical care.
Why Most Neuropathy Treatments Fall Short
Standard neuropathy care often focuses on symptom control rather than true nerve repair. Many patients who find us have already “tried everything,” including:
- Prescription medications that dull nerve pain but carry side effects
- Topical creams and patches with short‑lived relief
- Physical therapy that helps mobility but may not fully address nerve health
- Injections or surgeries that come with downtime and risk
- “Miracle” gadgets or supplements that overpromise and underdeliver
These tools can be helpful, but by themselves they usually do not create a strong regenerative environment around damaged nerves. That is where a regenerative modality like SoftWave Therapy can give your body additional support.
What Is SoftWave Therapy?
SoftWave Therapy: The Science of Nerve Regeneration
SoftWave Therapy is an FDA-cleared technology that uses high-energy acoustic (sound) waves delivered through the skin to targeted tissues. The patented unfocused design allows the waves to spread out and reach deeper structures—up to 4–5 inches below the surface—without surgery or needles.
During a session, a handheld applicator is moved over the area of concern while the device delivers pulses of acoustic energy. Many patients describe feeling brief, pinpointed sensations where the nerves or tissues are most irritated.
How SoftWave Therapy Supports Nerve Healing
SoftWave Therapy is an FDA‑cleared technology that delivers high‑energy acoustic waves through the skin to targeted tissues. The patented unfocused design allows the waves to spread out and reach deeper structures—up to several inches below the surface—without surgery, injections, or downtime.
During treatment, a handheld applicator glides over the area of concern while the device sends controlled pulses of acoustic energy into the affected region. Many patients feel brief, pinpoint sensations where nerves are most irritated; these “signaling spots” help guide treatment.
Clinically Proven Results for Neuropathy
SoftWave Therapy isn’t experimental—it’s backed by peer-reviewed research and decades of clinical success:
- 72% reduction in pain scores (Visual Analog Scale) in published randomized controlled trials
- 91% patient satisfaction rate in clinical outcomes studies
- 65–91% improvement in musculoskeletal and general pain complaints
- Sustained improvements at 6-month and 12-month follow-ups
- 67% of patients reduced or eliminated pain medication use
Studies by leading researchers (Lohse-Busch, Chen, Notarnicola, and others) demonstrate that SoftWave therapy is particularly effective for:
- Diabetic peripheral neuropathy
- Neuropathy from chemotherapy
- Traumatic nerve injuries
- Nerve entrapment conditions
- Age-related neuropathy
The healing response doesn’t stop after treatment ends—clinical evidence shows stem cell activation and tissue repair can continue for up to 12 months after your final session.

What to Expect at Your Neuropathy Discovery Session
Your $49 Neuropathy Discovery Session at Simply Well Chiropractic is designed to help you understand what is driving your symptoms and whether SoftWave Therapy is a good fit.
Here is what typically happens:
- Detailed history and consultation – We review your neuropathy symptoms, medical history, medications, and prior treatments, and we clarify whether your pattern is more consistent with diabetic, idiopathic, chemotherapy‑induced, or another type of neuropathy.
- Neurologic and movement assessment – We check sensation, reflexes, balance, and basic foot and gait mechanics to identify high‑risk areas and functional limitations.
- SoftWave test treatment – You receive an initial SoftWave session over the most symptomatic area so you can experience how it feels and see whether your nerves respond during and immediately after treatment.
- Personalized plan and education – We outline the recommended frequency of SoftWave sessions, home strategies to protect your feet and nerves, and how we will coordinate with your primary care physician, neurologist, or oncologist.
If SoftWave Therapy is not appropriate for your situation, we will tell you that honestly and help you understand other options or referrals in the Cincinnati area.

Neuropathy is highly individual, so your care plan is tailored to your diagnosis, severity, and goals.
Your plan may include:

- Coordination with your neurologist, podiatrist, or oncologist
- Periodic re‑evaluations to track sensation, balance, and pain changes
