Softwave 101 & FAQ

What to Expect at Your First SoftWave Therapy Discovery Day Visit at Stoetzel Chiropractic Clinic

Experience the Future of Healing — Drug-Free, Non-Surgical, Regenerative Pain Relief

If you're suffering from chronic pain, joint stiffness, limited mobility, or recovering from an injury or surgery, your body may be ready for SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology (TRT). At Stoetzel Chiropractic Clinic in Winston-Salem, NC, Dr. John Stoetzel and his team invite you to experience the difference on your first SoftWave Discovery Day visit.

This powerful, FDA-cleared technology is trusted by top hospitals and professional sports teams around the world for one reason: it works. Here’s what you can expect at your first visit.

Step 1: Meet & Greet

Your visit begins with a warm welcome from our team. We’re here to listen, learn about your concerns, and make sure you feel comfortable every step of the way. Our mission is to help you feel heard, understood, and empowered on your healing journey.

Step 2: Chief Complaint & Health History

Next, we’ll discuss your primary areas of pain or injury. You’ll share your health history, current limitations, failed treatments, and your goals. Whether you’re dealing with joint degeneration, arthritis, tendinitis, nerve pain, a sports injury, post-surgical pain and recovery, or long-standing inflammation, we tailor every step of the visit to you.

Step 3: SoftWave 101 — The Science Behind the Technology

Before we begin treatment, we explain how SoftWave Therapy works and why it’s revolutionizing the way we treat pain and injury.

SoftWave uses electrohydraulic supersonic acoustic waves that travel over 3,000 mph into deep tissue to stimulate healing on a cellular level. Here's what it triggers in your body:

  • VEGF & eNOS Activation: Stimulates angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels) for better blood flow and oxygenation

  • Modulation of Inflammation: Reduces chronic inflammatory markers by regulating toll-like receptors

  • PCNA & BMP Expression: Promotes cellular proliferation and repair in injured tissue

  • Stem Cell Activation & Migration: Signals the body’s resident stem cells to mobilize to damaged areas for healing

  • Flushing Out Senescent Cells: Clears dysfunctional cells that slow recovery and cause ongoing pain

This therapy is non-invasive, non-surgical, injection-free, and drug-free—yet deeply effective for pain relief, tissue regeneration, and recovery.

Step 4: Mapping Session — Finding the Hot Spots

This is where SoftWave really shines.

Using the therapy head, we perform a mapping session, scanning the area of pain and surrounding tissues. This allows us to identify “hot spots”—areas of inflammation, tissue breakdown, or nerve sensitivity. Patients often say, “That’s exactly where it hurts!”

These findings help us determine:

  • If you are a good candidate for SoftWave Therapy

  • Where your pain is originating from

  • Where to focus future treatments for maximum results

It’s like using real-time feedback to pinpoint the source of the problem—rather than guessing or masking symptoms.

Step 5: Your First Full SoftWave Therapy Session

Once we've identified the problem areas, we’ll deliver your first full SoftWave session.

This treatment ignites a cascade of regenerative healing processes designed to:

  • Reduce pain and inflammation immediately and over time

  • Improve mobility and flexibility in the treated area

  • Stimulate stem cell activation for continued cellular healing in the weeks and months ahead

Many patients report feeling noticeable improvements in pain and movement right after the first session. Others experience relief and regeneration that builds over time as the body begins to heal from within.

What Comes Next: The SoftWave Care Plan

If you’re a good candidate, we’ll outline a personalized care plan—typically a 6- to 8-week journey. This plan is designed to support:

  • Long-term pain relief

  • True tissue and joint regeneration

  • Improved range of motion

  • Reduced inflammation and improved function

  • Faster recovery from injuries or surgeries

Our goal is to create a healthy cellular environment where your body can rebuild, restore, and thrive—without drugs, surgery, or ongoing injections.
