What is SoftWave Therapy?
SoftWave TRT is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive, and drug-free treatment that works by delivering shockwaves to trigger a cellular response, activating the body's natural healing process. This cutting-edge technology opens up a world of new possibilities for tissue repair, pain reduction, and stem cell stimulation.
Dr. Schulke is the only provider in Indiana certified by the International Society for Medical Shockwave Therapy (ISMST), the worlds leading organization driving research and physician collaboration. He is a member of the ISMST, the American Institute for Medical Shockwave Providers (AIMSP) and is an ISMST intructional certified provider.
Softwave is used by the Mayo Clinic, Harvard Medical School, and the Cleveland Clinic, and can help combat a number of health problems, including:
How does SoftWave Therapy work?
SoftWave Therapy works by mechanotransduction. Mechanotransduction as defined by Science Direct is "the ability of a cell to actively sense, integrate, and convert mechanical stimuli into biochemical signals that result in intracellular changes, such as ion concentrations, activation of signaling pathways and transcriptional regulation." This is what allows your body to convert sound waves into nerve messages which allows us to hear or how the sun stimulated our body to make Vitamin D.
SoftWave Therapy For Knee Arthritis
SoftWave Therapy for knee arthritis is one of our favorites to provide at our Carmel, IN SoftWave Clinic because the results are so fast! We have had many patients with bone-on-bone knees find great relief and in many cases, resolution of pain. The SoftWave therapy provides regeneration by activating the bodies mesenchymal stem cells and increasing exosomes.
SoftWave Therapy For Neuropathy
SoftWave Therapy helps those with peripheral neuropathy or nerve pain in a number of ways. The first is by increasing not only blood flow and circulation by up to 300%, but also through the process of angiogenesis. Angiogenesis is the creation of new blood vessels. The SoftWave Therapy also reduces inflammation in a massive way! See some of our amazing before and after pictures and videos. SoftWave Therapy also activates resident mesenchymal stem cells and exosomes which help to regenerate the damaged nerves. SoftWave TRT holds over 40 patents, one of which is for peripheral nerve regeneration.
SoftWave Therapy for Neuropathy and nerve pain can be used as a stand-alone treatment or in conjunction with other therapies. This is dependent on the specific cause of the neuropathy and the amount of nerve damage. Review our Neuropathy Programs page to get a better idea of the different types of treatments available.
