SoftWave vs. Steroid Injections for Arthritis, Tendinitis, and Bursitis at Rhino Chiropractic

Arthritis, tendinitis, and bursitis can cause chronic pain and significantly impact your quality of life. While steroid injections have long been a common treatment option, they come with several downsides and potential side effects. At Rhino Chiropractic, located at 435 Commerce Dr Suite 150, Victor, NY 14564, Dr. Ryan Mulcahy and our dedicated team, including our skilled SoftWave technician Cassandra, provide SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology as a superior alternative. This innovative therapy offers a conservative, drug-free, non-surgical solution for long-term, sustainable relief with no downtime.

Understanding Steroid Injections

Steroid injections are commonly used to reduce inflammation and pain in conditions such as arthritis, tendinitis, and bursitis. However, they offer only temporary relief and do not address the underlying causes of the pain.

Downsides of Steroid Injections

Temporary Relief:

• Steroid injections provide only short-term relief. The effects typically last a few weeks to a few months, requiring repeated treatments.

No Tissue Repair or Healing:

• Steroid injections do not promote true healing or repair of damaged tissues. They only mask the symptoms without addressing the root cause.

No Regenerative Effects:

• Unlike regenerative therapies, steroids do not stimulate tissue regeneration or repair. They simply reduce inflammation temporarily.

Potential Side Effects:

• Steroid injections come with a range of potential side effects, including:
  • Joint Infection: Risk of infection at the injection site.
  • Tendon Rupture: Increased risk of tendon weakening or rupture.
  • Bone Thinning: Potential for osteoporosis or bone thinning with repeated use.
  • Cartilage Damage: Long-term use can lead to cartilage deterioration.
  • Hormonal Imbalances: Steroids can affect hormonal balance, leading to weight gain, mood swings, and other issues.

The Advantages of SoftWave Therapy

SoftWave Therapy offers a revolutionary approach to treating arthritis, tendinitis, and bursitis. Here’s why patients are choosing SoftWave over steroid injections:

Promotes True Cellular and Tissue Healing

SoftWave Therapy utilizes electrohydraulic supersonic acoustic waves traveling over 3,000 mph. These waves trigger a cascade of positive biological responses at the cellular level, promoting healing, repair, and regeneration of tissues. Here’s how SoftWave Therapy works:

Reduction of Inflammation:

• SoftWave Therapy modulates inflammation, reducing swelling and pain at the source.

Enhanced Blood Flow and Angiogenesis:

• The therapy promotes the production of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), leading to the formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis). Improved circulation ensures that oxygen and nutrients reach the affected areas, facilitating tissue repair.

Stimulation of Healing Responses:

• SoftWave Therapy enhances the expression of Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen (PCNA) and activates Toll-Like Receptors, essential for cell repair and immune response.

Activation and Migration of Resident Stem Cells:

• SoftWave Therapy activates and mobilizes resident stem cells, crucial for repairing and regenerating damaged tissues.

Conservative, Drug-Free, Non-Surgical Solution

SoftWave Therapy offers a non-invasive, drug-free alternative to steroid injections. Key benefits include:

• Long-Term Sustainable Relief: SoftWave Therapy provides long-lasting relief by addressing the root causes of pain and promoting true healing.
• No Downtime: Patients can return to their daily activities immediately after treatment.
• No Side Effects: Unlike steroid injections, SoftWave Therapy has no adverse side effects besides minimal soreness such as a delayed response after a good muscle work-out or exercise routine and is safe for repeated use.

Backed by Science and Research

SoftWave Therapy is supported by extensive scientific research and clinical studies demonstrating its effectiveness in promoting tissue repair and regeneration. It is recognized and trusted by leading medical institutions and used by top healthcare professionals.
