StemWave therapy is very low-risk and well-tolerated. Most people feel no side effects at all. Some may notice mild soreness or warmth in the treated area, which usually goes away quickly. There’s no downtime, so you can return to normal activities right after your session.

No, StemWave produces a wave which is therapeutic and travels at over 3,500 mph deep into tissue to initiate a cascade of biochemical responses including relief of minor aches and pains, activation of connective tissue and improvement in local blood circulation.

While both use sound waves, StemWave is a safer and more advanced evolution of traditional shockwave therapy. It uses a gentler, more focused approach that treats a wider range of issues with minimal discomfort. StemWave is also designed to reach deeper into the body, targeting the root cause of pain instead of just surface symptoms — making it ideal for long-lasting results.

StemWave is most commonly used on knees, shoulders, hands, feet, elbows, hips and low-back. Because of StemWave unique applicator head design, it can easily contour over many areas of the body.

Each treatment is 3-5 minutes; however, we suggest leaving time for notes and general communication – which may create a 10-20 minute session depending on your style of care.

StemWave is highly effective, especially for people struggling with chronic pain or soft tissue injuries. Many patients report improved mobility, reduced inflammation, and significant pain relief after just a few sessions. It’s trusted by top clinics, athletes, and healthcare professionals across the country.
