What is SoftWave™ Therapy?
Broad-focused acoustic waves, directed where your body responds.
A handheld applicator sends acoustic waves into the target area. As the provider moves across the tissue, your feedback helps identify sensitive or reactive areas and guides the session.
Listen to feedback
You communicate what you feel so the provider can focus on relevant areas and adjust when appropriate.
Review the response
Your response, exam findings, and goals help shape the provider’s recommendations for what comes next.

These answers cover the basics. Your provider can give you condition-specific guidance during the consultation.
Prefer to talk?(847) 485-0990What is SoftWave™ Therapy?
SoftWave™ Therapy uses acoustic shockwaves delivered through a handheld applicator. The provider moves the applicator over the target area while monitoring your feedback and adjusting the session when appropriate.
How soon could I notice a change?
Some patients report changes in pain or movement during the first few visits, while others respond more gradually. Timing varies with the condition, health history, treatment area, and individual response. No specific result or timeline can be guaranteed.
What does a session feel like?
People commonly describe tapping, pressure, or brief tenderness in sensitive areas. Communication with the provider is important throughout the session so the intensity and location can be adjusted when appropriate.
Is SoftWave™ right for every type of pain?
No. Pain can have many causes, and SoftWave™ Therapy is not appropriate for every person or diagnosis. Your consultation and evaluation help the provider screen for contraindications and discuss suitable options.
What is included in the $49 new-patient special?
The $49 voucher includes a SoftWave™ consultation, focused evaluation, an introductory SoftWave™ treatment if clinically appropriate, and a doctor's report of findings with personalized next steps.
