Hello, everyone! I'm Dr. Cherese Combs from Olympic Regenerative Medicine, and I'm excited to share with you one of our innovative treatments that's helping so many patients reclaim their active lifestyles: StemWave Therapy. As a non-invasive, cutting-edge option in regenerative medicine, we're proud to offer this therapy right here in our clinic. Whether you're dealing with stubborn pain or looking for alternatives to surgery or medications, StemWave could be the game-changer you've been seeking. Let's dive into what it is, how it works, and who it can benefit.

What is StemWave Therapy?

StemWave Therapy is an advanced form of acoustic wave therapy, also known as extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT). It's a safe, FDA-cleared treatment that uses high-energy sound waves to target affected areas of the body. Unlike traditional methods that might involve injections or invasive procedures, StemWave is completely non-surgical and requires no downtime, making it an ideal choice for busy individuals.

How Does StemWave Therapy Work?

At its core, StemWave works by delivering focused acoustic waves directly to the site of pain or injury. These waves stimulate your body's natural healing processes in several ways:

Reducing Inflammation and Pain: The therapy promotes blood flow and reduces swelling, which can lead to significant pain relief, often noticeable after just a few sessions.
Breaking Down Calcifications: For conditions involving calcium deposits, like calcific tendinitis, the waves help resorb these buildups, improving mobility and function.
Enhancing Tissue Repair: It encourages the regeneration of tissues, such as tendons and muscles, by boosting cellular activity and collagen production.
Improving Function: Studies show it can lead to better range of motion and strength, with many patients reporting long-term improvements.

Backed by extensive scientific research, including systematic reviews and randomized controlled trials, StemWave has demonstrated effectiveness in reducing pain by up to 50% or more in refractory cases, improving function scores, and even outperforming placebo in conditions like chronic tendinopathies. Sessions are quick—typically 10-15 minutes—and involve applying the device to the skin over the targeted area, with adjustable energy levels for comfort.

Who Can Benefit from StemWave Therapy?

StemWave is versatile and evidence-based for a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions. It's particularly helpful for those with chronic pain that hasn't responded to conservative treatments like physical therapy or medications. Based on clinical studies, here are some key indications where it shines:

Shoulder Tendinitis (including calcific types)
Low Back Pain
Knee Osteoarthritis (OA)
Stress Fractures / Shin Splints
Plantar Fasciitis
Achilles Tendinopathy
Patellar Tendinopathy
Epicondylitis (Tennis Elbow)
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Wound Healing / Diabetic Foot Ulcers
Peripheral Arterial Disease / Claudication
Femoral Head Avascular Necrosis
Spasticity

If you're an athlete recovering from injury, someone with occupational strain, or dealing with age-related wear and tear, StemWave can help accelerate healing and get you back to what you love.
