Healing at the cellular level.
Searching for SoftWave clinics near me? Back and Body in Shelby Township offers SoftWave therapy, which uses unfocused electrohydraulic shockwaves — acoustic pulses that travel deep into injured tissue and trigger the same healing cascade your body uses after an injury. It stimulates blood flow, wakes up resident stem cells, and tells the surrounding tissue to start repairing itself.
Unlike focused shockwave (which concentrates energy in a tight spot), SoftWave's unfocused technology covers a wider treatment area and reaches deeper structures without the discomfort. That's why the FDA cleared it for activation of connective tissue, treatment of pain, and improvement of blood supply.
Back and Body recently added SoftWave to our clinic. It's the same device used across MaxLiving Health Centers nationally — a proven technology that belongs alongside chiropractic care and spinal decompression. For patients with nagging pain that hasn't responded to other care, SoftWave is often the missing piece.

What makes it different.
Regenerates Tissue Without Surgery
The shockwaves trigger your body to build new blood vessels, activate stem cells, and repair damaged tissue naturally. No cutting, no stitches, no anesthesia.
Reduces Inflammation at the Source
Instead of masking inflammation with medication, SoftWave addresses the underlying cellular dysfunction that keeps tissue inflamed — so pain gets better and stays better.
No Drugs, No Downtime
Sessions last 10-15 minutes. You walk out ready to go back to work, the gym, or wherever you need to be. No pills. No recovery period.
FDA-Cleared, Clinically Proven
SoftWave is FDA 510(k) cleared for activation of connective tissue, pain treatment, and improved blood supply. The research is solid and it's been used by thousands of clinicians.
SoftWave can help.
Particularly effective for pain that hasn't responded to rest, medication, or standard physical therapy.
Your SoftWave session.
Setup
You sit or lie comfortably while Dr. Brad applies ultrasound gel to the treatment area. The SoftWave applicator is placed against the skin over the injury or pain source.
Treatment
The applicator delivers thousands of unfocused acoustic pulses into the tissue. You'll feel a tapping sensation and hear a rapid clicking sound. Each session lasts 10-15 minutes — most patients describe it as more intense than painful.
Afterward
No rest required. You can go right back to your day. Many patients feel improvement after a single session; most complete a series of 6-12 sessions depending on the condition. Dr. Brad checks in on progress and adjusts the plan as needed.
Dr. Brad treats every patient with the same philosophy: thorough diagnosis, personalized care, and real results. Your treatment plan is built around your specific condition and goals. Come when you need to. Stop when you're feeling good. You're in control of your care.
SoftWave clinics near me: what to look for in Shelby Township
If you are comparing SoftWave clinics near me, start with who runs the treatment and what else the clinic can do for you. Back and Body Chiropractic Center at 55130 Van Dyke Ave #25 in Shelby Township is a chiropractic clinic that added SoftWave tissue regeneration, and it is one of the few SoftWave machines in Macomb County. Dr. Bradley Krawczyk examines you first, so the treatment is aimed at the tissue that is actually causing the pain.
SoftWave uses unfocused electrohydraulic shockwaves that are FDA 510(k) cleared for activation of connective tissue, treatment of pain and improving blood supply. Patients come in for plantar fasciitis, shoulder pain, knee pain, tennis elbow, carpal tunnel, neuropathy, arthritis and chronic low back pain. A typical plan is 6 to 12 sessions depending on the condition and how long you have had it, and most patients notice improvement after the first session.
Because we are a chiropractic clinic, SoftWave can be paired with the rest of your care. If your back or leg pain comes from a disc, spinal decompression comes first, and SoftWave can support the surrounding tissue. Tight muscles around the area can be handled with on-site massage therapy, and joint motion with chiropractic adjustments. One clinic, one plan.
Most insurance plans do not cover SoftWave yet because it is a newer regenerative therapy, and pricing is transparent. The best way to start is the $67 new patient visit: a consultation and exam so Dr. Brad can tell you honestly whether SoftWave is right for you. See what happens at that visit on our new patients page, then book online or call (586) 207-1624.
Hours are Monday to Thursday 9 AM to 1 PM and 3 PM to 7 PM, and Friday 9 AM to 12 PM, so there is room to fit sessions around work.
