SoftWave is a regenerative therapy using extracorporeal shockwaves to stimulate healing. Uses low-intensity, unfocused shockwaves to activate stem cells, reduce inflammation, and promote tissue repair.

Some Research Findings:
- Effective in Treatment - "Six studies involving 340 subjects measured the wound- healing rate. 26,31–34,36 The meta-analysis demonstrated that ESWT was more effective than CWT alone in the treatment of various wounds."
- Reduces Infection in Wounds - "Six studies involving 295 subjects reported wound infection or bacteriological contamination.26,29,30,32,33,37 The meta-analysis showed a statistically significantly lower inci- dence of wound infection after ESWT compared with CWT (OR = 0.47, 95% CI: 0.24-0.92, P = .03; Figure 7), which indicated a 53% reduction in the risk of wound infection after ESWT."
- Safe - "Serious adverse events, such as cardiac, neurological adverse reactions, muscle damage, haemorrhage, or thrombosis, were not reported in these above studies,29–31,35–37 which suggests that ESWT is a safe adjunct treatment method for different kinds of wounds."
