Shockwave Therapy


Experience amazing pain relief and faster healing with our cutting-edge shockwave therapy treatments in Cincinnati. We use the latest SoftWave technology that’s helped so many of our patients find real relief from chronic pain and stubborn injuries.

What is shockwave therapy?

Shockwave therapy, also known as Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT), is a revolutionary non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic sound waves to stimulate your body’s natural healing processes. This FDA-approved technology has transformed pain management by targeting the root cause of chronic conditions rather than simply masking symptoms.

The treatment works by delivering precisely focused acoustic waves to injured tissues. Unlike other shockwave therapies, SoftWave Therapy does not cause microtraumas. Instead, SoftWave Therapy stimulates stem cell activation, increases blood flow, and promotes new tissue regeneration for long-lasting pain relief.

After Dr. Faith establishes a treatment plan, patients typically come in a couple of times each week for the first few weeks. Next, shockwave treatments are spread to once a week until the treatment plan is complete. Dr. Faith often asks patients to wait several weeks afterward to allow the body’s healing process to continue. SoftWave Therapy continues to work in the affected area for up to two months after treatments are complete. In some cases, patients may need or want occasional maintenance care to help prevent your pain from returning. Dr. Faith makes all maintenance recommendations on a case-by-case basis.

How Shockwave Therapy Gets to the Root Cause of a Condition

SoftWave Therapy goes beyond temporary relief by addressing the root causes of pain and dysfunction instead of just covering up the symptoms. Here’s how it works to treat your condition at its source:

Effective, Long-Term Pain Relief

Targets the source of pain: SoftWave Therapy promotes healing at the cellular level by reducing inflammation, repairing damaged tissue, and restoring function—treating the underlying cause, not just the symptoms.

Reduces reliance on medication: By supporting the body’s natural healing process, SoftWave Therapy can lessen the need for pain medications or anti-inflammatories, providing a safer, drug-free approach to recovery.

Deep Healing Through Advanced Cellular Activation

SoftWave Therapy uses acoustic waves that penetrate deeply into injured or painful tissues—reaching areas traditional treatments often can’t. This allows it to directly target the true source of pain, not just surface-level symptoms.

Through a process called mechanotransduction, these sound waves stimulate your cells by converting mechanical signals into biochemical responses, jumpstarting your body’s natural healing and regeneration processes.

Supporting the Body’s Natural Healing Abilities

Enhances circulation: SoftWave Therapy stimulates the growth of new blood vessels (angiogenesis), improving oxygen and nutrient delivery to injured tissues—speeding up recovery and promoting long-term tissue health.

Calms inflammation at the source: Rather than simply masking pain, SoftWave helps regulate inflammation at the cellular level, addressing chronic inflammation where it starts.

Stimulates stem cell activation: The therapy awakens dormant stem cells and directs them to the injured area, accelerating tissue repair, regeneration, and long-term healing.

Shockwave Therapy FAQ

If you’re new to SoftWave Therapy (also known as shockwave therapy), you’re not alone—and you’re right to be curious. This cutting-edge treatment is transforming how we approach healing by using sound waves to:

  • Improve circulation and accelerate the body’s natural healing process
  • Activate dormant stem cells, jumpstarting repair that can continue for up to 12 months
  • Stimulate your body’s built-in ability to heal itself

While SoftWave Therapy has been around for a few years, its powerful benefits are only now gaining broader recognition. If you’re just beginning to explore this therapy, you probably have some questions. That’s why we’ve created a helpful SoftWave FAQ to guide you through the basics.


Shockwave Therapy is a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment that uses high-energy sound waves to reach deep into injured, painful, or degenerating areas of the body. These waves stimulate stem cells and growth factors that are critical for healing muscles and connective tissues. By enhancing metabolic activity and increasing blood flow, SoftWave encourages cellular repair and regeneration. The result for patients is reduced pain, improved mobility, and better overall function—naturally and effectively.

The number of SoftWave Therapy sessions you’ll need depends on your individual condition and how your body responds to treatment. Most patients see significant improvement in just 4 to 10 sessions.
At Simply Well Chiropractic, we start with a conservative treatment plan to monitor your progress. If additional care is needed, we can adjust your plan accordingly. Each session is quick—typically lasting about 10 minutes.

Patients receiving SoftWave Therapy often notice a marked decrease in pain and inflammation in the treated area. Many also experience enhanced mobility and improved overall function.

This therapy activates the body’s natural healing processes, offering not just immediate symptom relief but also encouraging lasting tissue repair and regeneration. As a result, healing can continue for weeks after the treatment series is finished, with the biological effects of SoftWave Therapy ongoing in the affected tissues.
