Softwave Therapy Q&A

What is SoftWave therapy?

SoftWave therapy, or shock therapy, is a nonsurgical treatment that uses shockwaves to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes. The noninvasive procedure increases the recovery efficiency of soft tissue injuries and also provides lasting relief of chronic pain.

Pain Specialists of Frisco offers SoftWave therapy sessions as a drug-free alternative to pain management in adults and adolescents.

Dr. Mohan and the team use the latest SoftWave technologies to heal musculoskeletal injuries quickly, so you can return to your usual activities sooner. They offer SoftWave therapy as a standalone procedure and in conjunction with Regenexx® stem cell therapy.

How does SoftWave therapy work?

SoftWave technology delivers shockwaves into the body’s soft tissues. The energy penetrates deep into the body and stimulates the production of stem cells to heal damaged tissues.

SoftWave treatments also enhance blood circulation in the area where pain originates to reduce inflammation, ease pain, and improve mobility.

Dr. Mohan and the team place a handheld applicator over the treatment area to deliver sound waves into the tissues. The noninvasive treatment requires no anesthesia or incisions, and you can expect to relax comfortably throughout your session.

Some people notice a decrease in pain during treatment. However, it takes several weeks for new cells to grow and repair damaged tissues, so results may not be immediate. Dr. Mohan may recommend additional SoftWave sessions over several weeks or months to achieve optimal results.

Am I a candidate for SoftWave therapy?

SoftWave shockwave therapy may be a treatment option for a range of conditions, including:

Arthritis
Tendonitis
Meniscus tears
Plantar fasciitis
Carpal tunnel syndrome

You may benefit from SoftWave therapy sessions if you’re looking for lasting pain relief without medications or surgery. Dr. Mohan and the specialists review your medical history, perform a physical exam, and order diagnostic imaging tests to better understand the cause of persistent pain and other symptoms.

People with pacemakers and other implanted devices, clotting disorders, or infections might not qualify for SoftWave treatments.

Dr. Mohan and the team continue to monitor your progress with shock therapy sessions. They may also recommend physical therapy and other rehabilitative strategies to restore your range of motion and mobility.
