Frequently Asked Questions
What is SoftWave Therapy?
SoftWave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses patented technology to promote healing at the cellular level, improve blood supply, and initiate the body’s natural healing process. It uniquely delivers energy to an injured, scarred or inflamed area and helps reduce pain, speed up recovery, and regenerate tissue. It is available at licensed medical clinics throughout the United States. Treatment typically takes 5-10 minutes, and no anesthesia, numbing agents, or recovery time is required.
Does SoftWave hurt?
SoftWave therapy is a non-invasive and non-surgical treatment. Some patients feel a mild tapping or pulsing on the skin, while others experience some discomfort in the treatment area. Some say it feels like a rubber band snapping against the skin. Your provider can adjust the intensity to tolerance. The level of discomfort may also depend on the amount of pain the patient is already experiencing. Most patients can tolerate for the duration of the treatment, which lasts on average 5-10 minutes.
