What is SoftWave therapy and how does it work?
SoftWave Therapy, also known as shockwave therapy or extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT), is a non-invasive treatment option for various musculoskeletal conditions, including bursitis. This innovative therapy utilizes high-energy sound waves that are directed towards the affected area of the body. These sound waves stimulate the body's natural healing processes by increasing blood flow circulation, decreasing inflammation, breaking down scar tissue/calcifications, promoting the production of collagen, and stimulates the migration of stem cells and growth factors to the injured areas being treated, therefore promoting tissue regeneration.
