Published August 19th, 2024 by Disc Centers Of America Cleveland

At Disc Centers of America – Cleveland, we are dedicated to helping you find long-lasting relief from pain and injuries using SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology (TRT). If you're new to SoftWave, your first visit is an exciting opportunity to explore the power of this breakthrough therapy and discover how it can help you reclaim your health, mobility, and quality of life.

In this blog, we’ll walk you through what to expect during your SoftWave Discovery Day visit, so you feel prepared and excited for the journey ahead.

Meet and Greet: A Warm Welcome

Your visit will begin with a warm meet and greet with Dr. Roger Huang and his expert team. We pride ourselves on creating a comfortable, welcoming environment where we take the time to get to know each of our patients. You’ll have the opportunity to meet the staff, ask questions, and start building the foundation of a personalized treatment plan designed to meet your specific needs.

We’re here to help you feel at ease and provide answers to any questions you may have about SoftWave Therapy or the healing process.

Chief Complaint and Health History

Before diving into the therapy, Dr. Roger will sit down with you to discuss your chief complaint—whether it's chronic pain, an injury, or mobility issues—and review your health history. This part of the visit is crucial because it allows us to fully understand the root causes of your pain and determine the best course of action to address it.

This comprehensive review will help identify any previous injuries, surgeries, or conditions that may be contributing to your pain or discomfort, allowing us to tailor your SoftWave Therapy plan specifically to your needs.

SoftWave 101: Understanding the Science

Once your health history is reviewed, you’ll be introduced to SoftWave 101, where Dr. Roger and his team will explain the science behind SoftWave Therapy.

The Science Behind SoftWave Therapy

SoftWave Therapy uses electrohydraulic supersonic acoustic waves that travel at speeds over 3,000 miles per hour to penetrate deep into damaged tissues. These acoustic waves trigger a cascade of biological responses, including:

  • Modulation of Inflammation: SoftWave Therapy reduces harmful inflammation while promoting healthy inflammation, which is necessary for tissue healing.
  • Stem Cell Activation: The acoustic waves activate resident stem cells, which are responsible for repairing and regenerating damaged tissues, whether it’s cartilage, muscle, tendon, or nerve tissues.
  • Angiogenesis and Blood Flow: SoftWave stimulates angiogenesis, or the formation of new blood vessels, improving blood flow to the affected areas and speeding up the delivery of oxygen and nutrients needed for tissue repair.
  • Breaking Down Scar Tissue: SoftWave Therapy helps break down scar tissue and fibrotic adhesions, improving flexibility and reducing pain.

This powerful, drug-free, non-surgical treatment provides long-lasting relief by addressing the underlying causes of pain and promoting real healing at the cellular level.

Intro to SoftWave Therapy: Mapping Session

After learning about the science behind SoftWave, it’s time to experience the therapy firsthand with an introductory mapping session. This session is used to locate and identify "hot spots"—areas of inflammation, pain, and injury—within the affected tissues.

During the mapping session, Dr. Roger will gently guide the SoftWave applicator over the targeted areas to pinpoint where the most severe inflammation and damage exist. This step helps us determine whether you’re a candidate for SoftWave Therapy and allows us to precisely identify the areas where treatment will provide the maximum benefit.

This targeted approach ensures that SoftWave Therapy is delivered exactly where it's needed most, setting the stage for effective healing.

First Full SoftWave Session: Igniting Healing, Repair, and Regeneration

Following the mapping session, you’ll receive your first full SoftWave Therapy session. During this session, the acoustic waves will be directed toward the identified areas of inflammation and injury to ignite healing, repair, and regeneration.

What to Expect from Your First SoftWave Session

During your first session, you can expect:

  • Decrease in Pain: Many patients experience an immediate reduction in pain during or after their first session as inflammation begins to subside.
  • Improved Mobility: As SoftWave Therapy reduces swelling and inflammation, you’ll likely notice increased mobility in the affected area.
  • Stimulation of Stem Cells: SoftWave’s ability to activate stem cells means that your body’s natural healing processes will continue to work for weeks and months after treatment, promoting long-term recovery.
  • Enhanced Healing: SoftWave Therapy creates a healthy cellular environment, allowing your body to regenerate damaged tissues and speed up recovery.

The power of SoftWave Therapy lies in its ability to promote true cellular and tissue healing, laying the foundation for long-term pain relief and improved mobility.


The SoftWave Therapy Care Plan: A 6-8 Week Journey

At Disc Centers of America – Cleveland, we believe in comprehensive care, and that’s why our SoftWave Therapy care plan is typically a 6-8 week journey. This allows for multiple therapy sessions to fully maximize the healing, repair, and regeneration of your tissues.

During your care plan, you’ll experience:

  • Continued reduction in pain
  • Improved mobility and function
