A different kind of recovery technology

Designed to work with your biology.

SoftWave uses unfocused acoustic pressure waves to reach deep tissue. Rather than masking pain, it is designed to support the processes your body already uses to repair, remodel, and move with more ease.

How it works

Four moments.
One response.

Electrohydraulic technology turns a precisely controlled spark into an acoustic wave that can activate biological repair processes.

01

Spark creates energy

An electrical spark fires underwater inside the treatment head, creating an intense burst of energy.

02

A bubble forms

That energy vaporizes surrounding water, forming a cavitation bubble that rapidly expands and collapses.

03

A pressure wave travels

The collapse creates an unfocused acoustic pressure wave that moves deep through tissue.

04

Your biology responds

The wave prompts a biological cascade that supports circulation, tissue repair, and lower pain sensitivity.

What the response can support

Repair. circulation.
Relief.

What to expect

After treatment

Return to normal activity right away. Mild soreness for 24–48 hours can occur, similar to post-workout muscle soreness.

The treatment arc

Progress has its own rhythm.

1–2 sessions
