SoftWave Therapy Side Effects

SoftWave Therapy is becoming a go-to treatment for people looking to relieve pain and heal injuries—without surgery or medication. But if you’re considering this treatment, it’s natural to ask: What are the side effects of SoftWave Therapy?

At Everybody’s Chiropractic Center in Upper Darby, PA, we’ve treated patients from Havertown, Drexel Hill, and Wynnewood with SoftWave Therapy and have seen consistent results—with very few side effects.

What Is SoftWave Therapy?

SoftWave Therapy, also called SoftWave TRT (Tissue Regeneration Technology), is a non-invasive, FDA-cleared treatment that uses sound waves to stimulate the body’s natural healing process. It’s used for conditions like:

  • Back and neck pain
  • Sciatica
  • Joint pain
  • Plantar fasciitis
  • Shoulder and knee injuries

It works by increasing blood flow, reducing inflammation, and encouraging tissue repair—all without injections or surgery.

Are There Side Effects of SoftWave Therapy?

The short answer? SoftWave Therapy is very safe, and side effects are rare and usually mild.

Most patients experience little to no discomfort during or after the session. However, here are some common and temporary side effects that a small number of patients may notice:

  • Mild soreness or tenderness in the treated area
  • Redness or slight swelling after treatment
  • Temporary increase in discomfort as healing begins

These effects are typically short-lived and often go away within a few hours to a day. In fact, many people feel better immediately after treatment.

Why These Side Effects Happen

The purpose of SoftWave Therapy is to stimulate the body’s healing response. That process may cause increased blood flow and cell activity in the treated area—which can feel like temporary soreness, similar to what you might feel after a good workout or deep tissue massage.

These sensations are a sign that your body is beginning to repair itself. There’s no damage being done—just natural healing kicking into gear.

Who Should Be Cautious?

While SoftWave Therapy is safe for most people, we may recommend caution if you:

  • Are pregnant
  • Have a pacemaker or electronic implant near the treatment area
  • Have a bleeding disorder or are on blood thinners

At Everybody’s Chiropractic Center, we always review your health history before starting treatment to ensure it’s a good fit for you.
