Shockwave Therapy

A Revolutionary New Technology

At Optimal Wellness Center near you, we are committed to offering the most advanced root cause therapies for pain relief and recovery. After careful consideration, we chose shockwave therapy and StemWave™, the leading shockwave device for deep tissue injuries, as an effective, non-invasive option for treating joint pain, muscle injuries, and chronic conditions.

StemWave™ is a cutting-edge, FDA-listed, non-invasive medical device designed to harness the power of focused acoustic waves to promote healing deep within the body. Unlike traditional shockwave therapies, StemWave sets itself apart with a focused applicator head capable of penetrating up to 4 inches into soft tissue. This allows it to target damaged areas more effectively, breaking up scar tissue and adhesions, and stimulating the body’s natural healing mechanisms.

What Makes StemWave Different?

1. Deep Tissue Penetration: StemWave offers unparalleled depth in its ability to reach soft tissue, using a powerful plasma charge to deliver more acoustic energy than any other shockwave device on the market. This means more effective treatment of chronic pain conditions and faster recovery from injuries.

2. Focused Applicator Technology: The advanced applicator head ensures the acoustic waves are precisely directed to the affected area, resulting in faster, more targeted relief from pain and inflammation.

3. Non-Invasive, Yet Powerful: StemWave treatments are completely non-invasive and do not require surgery or medications. This offers a safer alternative for patients who wish to avoid invasive procedures, yet still experience significant pain relief and tissue healing.

4. Breaking Down Scar Tissue: Scar tissue and adhesions can severely limit movement and cause chronic pain. StemWave works by breaking down these adhesions, allowing for better mobility, improved circulation, and quicker recovery times.

Common Conditions Treated with StemWave near you

• Neck & Back Pain: Whether caused by disc issues, muscle strain, or nerve irritation, StemWave helps reduce inflammation and promote healing in hard-to-reach areas.

• Joint Pain: From knees and shoulders to ankles and elbows, StemWave is highly effective for treating joint pain caused by injury or degeneration.

• Soft Tissue Injuries: Injuries to ligaments, muscles, and tendons can heal faster with StemWave, as it accelerates tissue regeneration.

• Alternative to Surgery and Injections: StemWave offers an effective alternative to more invasive treatments like surgery, injections, or long-term medication use. It is also an effective treatment for erectile dysfunction.

  Frequently Asked Questions

  Let's answer some of your most common questions about StemWave™.

  Q: Does insurance pay for this?
  A: Unfortunately, this treatment is not yet covered by insurance. However, it still serves as a more cost effective alternative to other regenerative medicine options or surgery.

  Q: Does the treatment hurt?
  A: When the treatment goes over healthy tissue you won't feel anything, but when we go over damaged tissue it will cause some discomfort, but it is far less painful than surgery or injections. It is a manageable pain that doesn't require numbing cream or anesthetic. We like to say "you have to feel it to heal it" because when you let us know you are feeling discomfort, that means the treatment is working and allows us to focus on that area.

  Q: How many treatments will I need?
  A: StemWave’s advanced technology often provides noticeable results after just a few sessions. While each patient’s needs vary, the therapy’s deep tissue penetration ensures faster healing and fewer overall treatments than other shockwave devices.

  Q: Is this treatment safe?
  A: Yes, this treatment is labeled by the FDA as a "nonsignificant risk factor". Meaning this device is safe to be used over all parts of the body without significant risk of negative side-effects. There are only 4 things we cannot perform treatment over: 1. pacemakers, 2. fetal tissue, 3. active tumor or cancer, 4. teenage growth plates.

  Q: How do I know it will work for me?
  A: StemWave offers consistent and predictable outcomes because it targets the root cause of pain, whether that’s inflammation, scar tissue, or nerve issues. It’s also backed by clinical evidence and has been successfully used in treating a wide variety of conditions.

What Patients Are Saying About Shockwave Therapy

We understand that trying a new therapy can bring up questions and concerns. Here are some testimonials from our patients at Optimal Wellness Center who have experienced the benefits of StemWave™ shockwave therapy.

"I was skeptical about trying shockwave therapy because I didn’t want to waste time or money on something that might not work. But after my first few sessions with StemWave, I started noticing a real difference in my knee pain. Now, I can walk up and down stairs without pain. It’s amazing how much this non-invasive treatment helped when nothing else did!" — Jessica T.

"I was concerned about the discomfort, but the therapist explained everything and worked with me at my own pace. I felt mild discomfort only when they hit an area that needed treatment. The results are worth it! My shoulder pain that I’d been dealing with for over a year is finally manageable, and my range of motion has improved more than I expected." — Robert S.

"I had been told my only options were surgery or injections, which I really wanted to avoid. StemWave provided the perfect alternative, and the improvement in my chronic back pain has been incredible. It’s non-invasive and has allowed me to stay active without the downtime or risks associated with surgery." — Emily R.

"I struggled with plantar fasciitis for years, and nothing seemed to help. After a few StemWave sessions, I finally feel relief! Walking used to be painful, but now I can get through my day comfortably. I’m so grateful for finding an option that actually worked." — Tom W.

"I was worried about the number of sessions and the cost since insurance doesn’t cover it, but StemWave therapy turned out to be a cost-effective solution. After only a handful of treatments, my joint pain improved dramatically. I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for real, lasting relief without surgery." — Linda M.
