SoftWave Therapy

SoftWave Therapy

SoftWave Therapy uses sound waves to treat targeted areas of the body without injections or surgery. It may help reduce pain and support tissue recovery. At Elite Healthcare in Lincoln Park, we start with an evaluation to decide whether it fits your needs.

Who may benefit?

Our team may consider SoftWave for persistent tendon, heel, muscle, or joint pain. Your provider will review your symptoms and health history, explain your options, and recommend care suited to your condition.

What to expect

  • Evaluation: We discuss your symptoms, movement limitations, and goals.
  • Treatment: A handheld applicator delivers sound waves through the skin over the affected area.
  • Personalized plan: The number and frequency of sessions depend on your condition and response.
  • Progress checks: We monitor pain and movement and adjust your plan when needed.

Sessions are generally brief. You may feel pressure or discomfort during treatment; tell your provider if it becomes uncomfortable. Results vary from person to person.

Care built around you

SoftWave may be combined with physical therapy, chiropractic care, or therapeutic exercise when appropriate.

New patient visits usually take 30–60 minutes. Complete your online intake forms before you arrive, wear clothing that allows comfortable movement, and bring relevant medical records and any imaging studies you have. A provider referral is not required, but please bring one if you have it.

Will my insurance cover treatment?
