SoftWave Technology
Hirsh Chiropractic Center believes in treating patients without the use of drugs and avoiding surgeries if at all possible. We help the body stimulate its natural healing process. We are excited to introduce SoftWave Technology, the latest device in shock wave therapy designed to reach an injured area of tissue at the cellular level to advance healing.
Benefits of SoftWave Technology
SoftWave Technology uses a non-invasive approach to healing without the use of anesthesia or numbing agents. Besides having no side effects, the benefits include faster treatment time, decreased inflammation, accelerated wound healing and pain relief.
Conditions Treated
SoftWave Technology can be used to treat many acute and chronic painful conditions such as back pain, knee pain, shin splints, foot pain and Plantar Fasciitis. Sports related injuries and overuse injuries can benefit from this technology as it is designed to stimulate healing at a deeper level.
How it Works
The procedure using the SoftWave Technology device averages 10-15 minutes. A gel is applied to the skin over the area to be treated and when activated the applicator produces pulses of low-intensity unfocused shock waves as it moves over the surface area to penetrate deep tissue.
