SoftWave® Tissue Regeneration Technologies (TRT)

With SoftWave® Tissue Regeneration Technologies (TRT), we can help to turn off the pain and turn on your body’s ability to heal. Countless patients throughout the country have experienced relief from SoftWave Therapy’s non-invasive treatment!

 Joint Pain Relief: knee, hip, shoulder, elbow, ankle, wrist and more

 Soft Tissue Relief: ligaments, tendons, muscles and tissues

 Chronic Pain Relief: Back, neck, nerves, discs, joints, old injuries and surgeries, etc

 Invasive Treatment Alternative: surgery, drugs, stem cells, cortisone shots, etc

 Acute Relief: wounds, numbness, aches and more

The patented extracorporeal shockwave therapeutic device is used to reach an injured area at the cellular level to stimulate your body’s natural healing process. TRT can activate connective tissue, improve blood supply, decrease inflammation and temporarily relieve pain while recruiting and activating resident stem cells to the area.

We are excited to bring Softwave TRT to the South Florida community!

With this technology, patients can avoid surgery as well as getting repeated cortisone shots. Another significant benefit is the therapy provides natural pain relief, so patients can avoid taking opiates or other painkillers.

What to Expect

The first appointment is a $75 introductory session, which we call a mapping session. We will do the initial consultation to learn about your health concern and then we’ll perform your first SoftWave TRT treatment session. We will map out the area of concern to figure out where our focus needs to be during the sessions.

Dr. Hastings will hold the patented SoftWave TRT applicator against your skin in the area of concern,  to administer a high-energy acoustic wave that penetrates deep into the body. These softwaves are electro-hydraulically produced sound waves that exit the applicator at 3,355 miles per hour.

This creates a shearing force on a cellular level that helps break up scar tissue and remove oxidative stresses that have built up around the cell membrane. This tricks the body into thinking there is a new injury without damaging the tissue, but helps activate an innate healing response on a cellular level. It also decreases inflammation and pain at the treatment site. The total treatment time is just 5-10 minutes. Patients who receive TRT have a quick recovery and enjoy long-lasting results.

The therapy is non-invasive, and no anesthesia or numbing agents are needed. We also use the SoftWave TRT as a diagnostic tool during your mapping session. When it is used over healthy tissue, there won’t be any discomfort. However, if you have an inflamed area, it will produce some discomfort.

Dr Hastings will then determine whether you are a candidate for SoftWave TRT and come up with a Complete Recovery Plan to provide you with long-term relief.

The best part is that research suggests this treatment stimulates your own stem cells within 45 minutes of this treatment. Stem cells are the repairmen of the body. This helps attract other helper cells and reset the body naturally. These repair and helper cells are signaled to come out over the next few weeks and start the healing process to the damaged tissue.

Typically, after the third treatment, we should see a 60-75% reduction in pain. After 6-8 treatments, we should have the maximum stem cell production that will continue to migrate and repair the tissue over the next 8-12 weeks. Research shows a success rate for musculoskeletal disorders of 65-91%.
