Running Towards Recovery: SoftWave Therapy’s Breakthrough for Common Running Injuries in Kansas City, MO with Dr Ben Dohrmann

Published February 28th, 2024 by Dohrmann Chiropractic & Acupuncture

Running, a fundamental form of exercise and competition, offers immense benefits for cardiovascular health, endurance, and mental well-being. However, the high-impact nature of running often leads to injuries that can sideline athletes from amateur joggers to seasoned marathoners. At Dohrmann Chiropractic & Acupuncture, we're pioneering a path to recovery that sidesteps conventional treatments, offering runners a faster, more effective return to the track with SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology.

The Runner's Gamut: Navigating Common Injuries

Runners face a spectrum of injuries, each with its unique challenges and recovery needs. Among the most prevalent are:

  • Plantar Fasciitis: Characterized by heel pain, this condition results from inflammation of the band of tissue connecting the heel bone to the toes.
  • Achilles Tendinitis: This injury involves inflammation of the Achilles tendon, leading to pain along the back of the leg near the heel.
  • Shin Splints: Medial tibial stress syndrome, or shin splints, causes pain along the inner edge of the shinbone.
  • IT Band Syndrome: Irritation and inflammation of the iliotibial band can lead to pain on the outside of the knee.
  • Runner’s Knee (Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome): This condition manifests as pain around the kneecap, often worsened by running, squatting, and sitting for long periods.
  • & MORE!

Traditional Treatments: A Road Riddled with Limitations

Historically, the treatment of running injuries has relied on a mix of rest, ice, compression, elevation (RICE), physical therapy, and in more severe cases, corticosteroid injections or surgery. While these methods can offer symptomatic relief, they often fall short of addressing the underlying cause of the injury, leading to prolonged recovery times and a high rate of recurrence.

SoftWave Therapy: A Leap Forward in Sports Medicine

SoftWave Therapy is changing the landscape of sports injury recovery, offering runners a non-invasive, non-surgical, and drug-free alternative that promotes natural healing at the cellular level. This advanced shock wave technology stimulates a cascade of biological healing responses, including:

  • Reduced Inflammation and Pain: SoftWave Therapy directly targets the source of discomfort, significantly diminishing pain and inflammation.
  • Enhanced Blood Flow and Circulation: The therapy promotes angiogenesis, improving blood supply to the injured area and accelerating the healing process.
  • Breakdown of Scar Tissue: SoftWave’s ability to break up scar tissue aids in restoring flexibility and range of motion, crucial for runners.
  • Stem Cell Activation: Perhaps most impressively, SoftWave Therapy activates the body’s stem cells, encouraging the repair and regeneration of damaged tissues, offering a long-term solution to running injuries.

Why Choose SoftWave Therapy for Running Injuries?

SoftWave Therapy represents a paradigm shift in treating running-related injuries, emphasizing rapid recovery and long-term healing over temporary fixes. Its non-invasive nature means athletes can avoid the risks and downtime associated with injections and surgeries, getting back to their training regimens faster and with greater confidence in their body’s resilience.
