SoftWave Therapy for Strength Athletes in Brandon, FL

High-intensity training and heavy lifting push your body to its limits—but injuries and chronic pain can slow your progress. At Nuvita Chiropractic in Brandon, FL, we offer SoftWave Therapy, a non-invasive treatment designed for athletes who demand peak performance. Whether you’re dealing with nagging aches or want to recover faster from an injury, our advanced therapy supports your goals so you can train harder and safer.

What is SoftWave Therapy for Strength Athletes?

SoftWave Therapy harnesses the power of focused acoustic waves to stimulate healing deep within muscles, tendons, and joints. For strength athletes, this approach targets the root causes of pain and dysfunction—such as inflammation, microtears, and scar tissue—without medication or surgery. Each session lasts about 15 to 20 minutes and is comfortable enough to fit into any training routine. By accelerating cellular repair and increasing blood flow to injured areas, SoftWave Therapy helps you bounce back quickly and continue making gains.

Understanding Common Injuries in CrossFit & Weightlifting

CrossFitters, weightlifters, and strength athletes often face unique physical demands that increase the risk of injury. Shoulder pain is frequent, stemming from heavy overhead lifts or repetitive presses that can strain the rotator cuff or cause impingement. Lower back pain is also a common complaint, particularly from deadlifts, squats, or Olympic lifts where form and load are critical. Elbow and wrist issues may arise from intense grip work or repeated dynamic movements like snatches and cleans.

Knee pain can develop due to deep squats, jumping, or high-impact WODs—sometimes leading to tendinitis or ligament stress. In some cases, athletes experience muscle strains or tears from pushing their limits or not allowing enough recovery between sessions. Over time, small injuries and chronic inflammation can accumulate, reducing mobility and making it harder to hit new personal bests. Recognizing these risks early and seeking effective treatment is vital for maintaining long-term strength and performance.

FAQs

Here are some of the frequently asked questions about SoftWave Therapy. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact us. We are happy to answer any of your inquiries.

  • What is the difference between SoftWave Therapy and shockwave therapy?
    SoftWave Therapy and shockwave therapy are both based on the principle of using acoustic waves to treat various conditions. However, SoftWave Therapy uses a patented technology that generates high-energy waves with a low-pressure amplitude, which makes it more gentle and effective than shockwave therapy. Shockwave therapy uses high-pressure waves that can cause pain, damage, and side effects to the tissue.
  • How many sessions do I need?
    The number of sessions depends on your condition and your individual response to the treatment. Typically, most patients need 3 to 6 sessions, with one session per week. However, some patients may require more or less sessions, depending on their progress and goals.
  • Is SoftWave Therapy covered by insurance?
    SoftWave Therapy is not covered by most insurance plans, as it is considered an elective procedure. However, we offer affordable and flexible payment options to help you get the treatment you need. We also accept major credit cards and CareCredit financing. Please contact us for more information about our pricing and payment plans.
  • Is SoftWave Therapy safe for everyone?
    SoftWave Therapy is safe for most people, as it has no contraindications or side effects. However, there are some exceptions, such as pregnant women, people with pacemakers, people with blood clotting disorders, or people with active infections or tumors. If you have any of these conditions, please consult with your doctor before undergoing SoftWave Therapy.
