Softwave for Neuropathy
Neuropathy, also known as peripheral neuropathy, refers to a variety of conditions that involve damage to the peripheral nervous system. Symptoms of neuropathy can range from mild to debilitating and may include the following:
- Tingling, prickling, or numbness in your hands or feet
- Sharp, jabbing, throbbing, freezing, or burning pain
- Extreme sensitivity to touch
- Lack of coordination and falling
- Muscle weakness or paralysis if motor nerves are affected
Diabetes is the most common cause of neuropathy, but other conditions such as infections, autoimmune diseases, genetic disorders, and exposure to toxins can also lead to this medical condition.
SoftWave Therapy, with its innovative approach to treatment, offers numerous benefits for patients suffering from neuropathy and offers them new hope for a more effective treatment. These benefits include the following:
- Pain relief. SoftWave Therapy stimulates the body’s natural healing process, resulting in significant pain reduction. This relief can improve the patient’s quality of life and allow them to resume their regular activities.
- Improved sensation. By targeting damaged peripheral nerves, SoftWave Therapy can restore normal sensation in areas affected by neuropathy.
- Non-invasive treatment. Unlike surgical procedures, SoftWave Therapy is non-invasive, eliminating the risks associated with surgery and reducing recovery time.
- Outpatient procedure. Softwave therapy is administered in an outpatient setting, typically taking about 15-20 minutes per session. This convenience makes it a feasible treatment option for many patients.
- Few side effects. SoftWave therapy has been reported to have few side effects, making it a safer alternative to medications that may have unwanted side effects.
- Addresses the root cause. Rather than simply managing symptoms, SoftWave Therapy promotes healing at the cellular level, addressing the underlying cause of the condition.
- No anesthesia or numbing creams. Patients don’t need anesthetic or numbing medication when using this treatment.
Softwave for Sports Injuries
More and more athletes are choosing Softwave therapy to help treat their injuries because there are many key benefits, including the following:
- Quick recovery and faster healing. Most patients need approximately 3–5 treatments over a few weeks instead of long months of physical therapy.
- No surgery. Many foot and ankle conditions can be treated with Softwave instead of with surgery. So, there’s no scarring, and there’s minimal downtime.
- Lasting results. Because Softwave promotes natural healing, many patients experience more sustainable relief than with temporary treatments like cortisone shots.
What to Expect During Your Softwave Treatment
Each Softwave session takes about 15-20 minutes. You may feel a light tapping sensation as the device delivers acoustic waves to the affected area. Some patients experience minor discomfort, but most find the procedure easily tolerable.
After your treatment, you can return to normal activities right away. Many of our patients notice improvement within days; however, optimal results often take 6–12 weeks.
Currently, SoftWave therapy is being covered by traditional Medicare, as well as some of the other major insurance carriers.
