What to Expect: Treatment Experience & Timeline
Here’s a rough outline of what a patient might expect:
Evaluation / Consultation – we assess your condition, medical history, imaging, and whether SoftWave is appropriate for you.
Treatment sessions – often 3 to 6 sessions, spaced a week or more apart (depending on severity, tissue type, and patient response).
Duration per session: about 10–15 minutes (some parts may take less).
How you’ll feel: mild tapping, pulsing, or tingling. Some areas (especially inflamed ones) may feel more sensitive, but most patients tolerate it well.

Initial improvements: many report reduction in pain or stiffness even after one or two sessions.
Full benefit timeline: best results often emerge over weeks to months as tissue remodeling and regeneration progress.
Aftercare: light activity, avoiding heavy strain for a day or two in the treated area, and continuing any complementary therapies (physical therapy, adjustments, etc.)
Because the response is biological (not purely symptomatic), consistency and patience often create the best outcomes.
