SoftWave Therapy 

Non-Invasive Pain Relief and Healing Support

​

Pain can affect how you move, sleep, work, exercise, and enjoy daily life. At Midlands Spine Center in
Lexington, SC, SoftWave Therapy offers a non-invasive option for patients looking for relief without surgery,
injections, or medication.

​

SoftWave Therapy uses acoustic wave technology to stimulate the body’s natural healing response. These
waves are delivered through a handheld applicator over the treatment area to help activate tissue repair,
increase local circulation, and reduce pain.

What Is SoftWave Therapy?

SoftWave Therapy is an FDA-cleared acoustic wave therapy that uses electrohydraulic sound waves to
reach injured or painful tissue. SoftWave describes its technology as broad-focused shockwave therapy
designed to activate healing at the cellular level.

Unlike treatments that only focus on short-term symptom relief, SoftWave Therapy is designed to help
stimulate a healing response in the treated area. It does not require surgery, needles, anesthesia, or
medication.

SoftWave is FDA 510(k) cleared for relief of minor muscle aches and pains, temporary increase in local
blood circulation, and activation of connective tissue.

How SoftWave Therapy May Help

During treatment, acoustic waves are delivered into the affected area through a handheld applicator. These
waves help stimulate the body’s natural repair process by increasing local blood flow and activating
connective tissue.


Patients often describe the treatment as brief and manageable. Some areas may feel more sensitive than
others, especially where inflammation or irritation is present. Treatment intensity can be adjusted based on
comfort level.


SoftWave Therapy is designed to support:

  • Temporary pain relief

  • Increased local circulation

  • Connective tissue activation

  • Tissue repair response

  • Improved mobility

  • Recovery support for irritated or injured areas

​

Why Patients Choose SoftWave Therapy

Non-Invasive

  • SoftWave Therapy does not involve surgery, injections, or medication.

Drug-Free

  • Patients who want to avoid relying only on medication may benefit from discussing SoftWave Therapy as an option.

Targets the Treated Area

  • The applicator is used directly over the area of concern so the acoustic waves can reach the tissue being treated.

Supports Natural Healing

  • SoftWave Therapy is designed to stimulate the body’s own repair process rather than masking pain alone.

May Improve Mobility

  • Patients dealing with stiffness, soreness, or restricted movement may benefit from improved tissue response and circulation.
