Produces a true shockwave
SoftWaves are created by a high-energy electrical discharge in water. Radial devices generate pressure waves, not true shockwaves.
The only broad-focused shockwave technology on the market.
SoftWave's patented parabolic reflector spreads shockwaves into a broad-focused dispersion that reaches 7 cm wide and up to 12 cm deep, covering both superficial and deep tissue at once. Comfortable for patients, powerful for outcomes.
Why FDA clearance matters.
SoftWave holds FDA clearances tied to specific medical indications: activation of connective tissue, temporary increase in blood flow, temporary pain relief, treatment of chronic diabetic foot ulcers, and treatment of acute second-degree burns. These are defined intended uses reviewed under U.S. regulatory standards.

Defined intended uses
FDA clearance establishes documented regulatory status. It covers specific uses supported by formal submission and review.
Penetrates deeper and wider
Spark-initiated electrohydraulic waves penetrate deeper and wider than radial or electromagnetic devices.
Not all shockwave is the same.
vs. Radial Devices
Radial devices disperse energy superficially and unevenly. SoftWave uses broad-focused, parallel waves to reach deeper tissues with precision, resulting in more effective healing and less patient discomfort.
vs. Electromagnetic Devices
Electromagnetic shockwaves lose energy quickly and often lack depth. SoftWave's electrohydraulic spark creates a more powerful, deeper-penetrating wave, backed by stronger clinical outcomes.
vs. Piezoelectric Devices
Piezoelectric devices generate highly focused energy at a single point, limiting treatment area and requiring exact targeting. SoftWave's broad-focused waves cover a larger area with each pulse, treating both the source and surrounding tissues for faster, more complete healing.
What to expect during treatment.
01
Before
We apply a gel to the treatment area.
02
During
The procedure averages 5 to 10 minutes. The applicator delivers gentle shockwave pulses as we move it around. You may feel mild pressure or tingling. Many patients help guide the process by pointing out "problem areas" where the sensation feels stronger.
03
After
Most patients can return to normal activities the same day. Some feel relief immediately, while others notice improvement over a series of sessions.
Recovery timeline.
Standard protocols involve weekly treatments for 4 to 6 weeks, with progressive pain relief and improved function. Many patients report improvement after the first session.
SoftWave is a true tissue regeneration technology, and there is a researched timeline for regeneration. Weeks 0 to 1 are the priming phase, weeks 2 to 4 focus on molecular acceleration, weeks 5 to 8 involve neovascularization and early remodeling, and weeks 9 to 12 mark the stages of regeneration and continued remodeling.
