SoftWave Therapy - Innovative treatment for pain relief and tissue repair
What is SoftWave Therapy?
SoftWave Therapy is an advanced treatment method that uses shock waves to help the body heal. This scientifically proven technique activates your body's natural healing powers, without surgery or medication. SoftWave is used worldwide by orthopedic surgeons, neurologists, and sports medicine specialists and is now also available at the Functional Neurology Institute in Lisse.
How does the treatment work?
The therapy stimulates recovery through four key mechanisms:
1. Improved Blood Circulation
Shock waves increase blood flow, allowing oxygen and nutrients to reach damaged tissue more quickly and accelerating the natural healing process.
2. Cellular Stimulation
SoftWave activates stem cells in the treated area, supports the formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis), and promotes the production of new tissue.
3. Pain Relief
The therapy can reduce pain by influencing pain signaling pathways and reducing inflammatory mediators. This provides medication-free relief.
4. Breakdown of Calcium Deposits
For calcified tendons or other conditions, SoftWave can help break down abnormal calcium deposits, which the body then removes.
Conditions that SoftWave Therapy can help with
SoftWave can be effective for:
- Tendon problems (such as Achilles tendonitis or tennis elbow)
- Joint pain
- Muscle injuries
- Chronic pain
- Sports injuries
- Collagen-related problems (such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis)
- Brain and nerve-related pain
- Poorly healing wounds
The treatment step by step
1. Preliminary examination
During the intake interview, we will assess whether SoftWave Therapy is suitable for your condition. A personalized treatment plan will then be developed.
2. Treatment session
Each session lasts 5-20 minutes, depending on the condition. A special conductive gel is used, making the treatment painless and requiring no anesthesia. The number of sessions depends on your condition.
3. After the treatment
After the session, you can immediately resume light activities. Temporary redness or warmth may occur at the treated area; this will resolve on its own.
