Softwave Reviews

I just completed my initial Softwave therapies for joint related issues. I'm quite happy with the treatment. Dr. Drilling is very knowledgeable, personable, a pleasure to talk and truly cares about patients. Highly recommend.

I have heel spurs and chronic plantar fasciitis that had flared for a relentless year when a friend told me about Softwave and Dr. Drilling. I could really feel some blood flowing in my feet after the first treatment, and I got the relief I needed to do strengthening and stretches without inflammation. I’m back up and moving again and I’m so grateful for another active era!

Truly a positive experience! I appreciated the initial Discovery session to determine if I was eveb a viable candidate! (I was!) My pain decreased and mobility increased (shoulder) after each session. Promoting the body's natural healing process is a definite win. Thank you Dr. Drilling!

I suffer from Morton’s neuroma in my feet. I’ve tried cortisone shots which did not help at all. I use custom insoles that help with the problem but the pain had increased over the past year to the point that short walks were uncomfortable. I had a friend recommend Softwave and Dr Paul. I’m glad she did! After finishing the treatment I’m almost totally pain free and walking daily! Thank you Dr Paul!

I had very bad left knee pain and surgery was not recommended. I came across the article from Dr Paul Drilling about SoftWave treatment. After reading about the treatment, I scheduled the consultation to find out more on the treatment . After the consultation Dr Paul gave me first treatment and believe me I could walk better without walker quite a bit of pain was gone. I highly recommend treatment from Dr Paul Drilling.

Paul is absolutely the best. He took my very injured achilles and helped me not just relieve pain, but also get to a more fully healed state to begin training my achilles more fully. Paul explained the softwave well, he was super technical in his description of it. He communicated super effectively about the healing process and how different parts of the foot (bottom/heel) connects into the achilles. Unlike traditional SHOCK-wave therapy, Paul's softwave had a deeper impact on the tissues so that in the next few months, I can return to normal. Would strongly, strongly recommend for anyone who has been struggling with a recurring sports injury, ESPECIALLY for an injury that hurts with recurring pain, or for anyone who has just had a nagging tissue/muscle pain where stretching/adjustments/and icing just won't do the trick.

I think that softwave can have a game-changing experience for you (and it is WORTH the price). Softwave is a super cool technology, and while I hope that I don't have any big injuries in the future (knock on wood), after the acute injury types of care had been tried, Paul would be my the first next place I would turn. Really would recommend!!

Good thing I like to do my research. Especially when the pain in both of my feet had me in tears and made it hard to even go to sleep at night. Part of the problem was arthritis - with a recommendation from my podiatrist to consider subtalar joint fusion surgery. That type of surgery has a LONG recovery period. Then I found Dr Drilling and SoftWave. Although SoftWave doesn't necessarily correct the structural problem with my feet - the anti-inflammatory and healing benefits have made my feet 90% pain free. I'm a BELIEVER !

Dr Drilling is comfortably professional and very personable. I have had 5 soft wave therapies on my rotary cuff tears thus far and the pain and mobility in my shoulder have already seen improvement. According to the NIH soft wave therapy is the most effective treatment for rotary cuff tears.

I'm a big skeptic but this Softwave Therapy made a believer out of me!! I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Paul!!! Amazing how in a few weeks I feel like I did prior to my injury.

Dr. Drilling is amazing! He is so nice made me feel very comfortable while working on my back. I would definitely recommend him and would 100% go back! (although i hopefully will never hurt again) GO DR DRILLING

If you are having any sort of joint pain I would highly recommend Dr. Paul’s Softwave treatment. I had really bad shoulder pain from lifting and could barely raise it laterally. After a round of the softwave treatment I’m now back to 100%.

I was suffering from Plantar Fasciitis and was in pain frequently. I didn’t want to mask the physical issue with cortisone shots. I decided to give Softwave a try and it was amazing. It does take a few months for the stem cells to repair but it completely cured my issue. Paul Drilling is a compassionate and knowledgeable doctor. I would highly recommend him and Softwave!

Ashley Duryea

I’ve experienced a treatment with the Soft Wave device performed by Dr, Drilling and after only 5 sessions my elbow pain was slowly disappearing. In the upcoming weeks after the treatment was completed, the elbow was improving more and more until the pain and discomfort disappeared completely! I can’t recommend this non-invasive treatment enough! It was a “game changer “ for me and I am definitely planning to use it in the future if needed!

I have battled with pain and swelling in my knee since surgery in 2020. After several treatments with the softwave my knee is more mobile, almost pain free and very little swelling!

Victoria Bradley

I have to say that I was a bit skeptical when I was told about Softwave. From 14 years of tennis, both knee caps were frequently achy, especially after matches. I had received two cortisone injections, which gave me minimal relief. I figured this was just what 59 felt like. Haha.

Well, Softwave has been a game changer for me! After several months of working with Paul, I am now on a maintenance plan. I haven't had a cortisone injection in almost a year now. The crazy part is that I am playing tennis with absolutely no pain, and I do not wear knee sleeves any longer.

Also, I will tell you that Paul is a phenomenal doctor. He knows how to maximize pain relief. He is also an amazing human! Give it try...it could change your life like it did mine.

I have had terrible low back pains and tight hamstrings for years. I went in for 8 sessions, and I can definitely feel the difference. My low back pains are pretty much non-existent, and my hamstrings have relaxed some. I would recommend this method for healing if you are in chronic pain.

Softwave E. Cobb exceeded my expectations. I sought out Softwave to alleviate chronic shoulder and hip pain. Everything I previously tried didn't help and I wanted to avoid surgery and longterm medications. With Softwave I actually felt pain relief the first night! I'm now on my eighth week of therapy and the pain levels have decreased by at least 95%. Plus I now have full range of motion in my shoulder! I found Softwave to be an excellent solution for my chronic pain and shoulder injury.

Dr. Paul has helped my ulnar nerve condition greatly when other types of treatments did not. I’m so grateful I found him & Softwave!

WL Blackwell

Paul is great! Very knowledgeable. I went to Paul for a nagging shoulder issue. Definitely have experienced a noticeable improvement since going through the Softwave therapy treatments. Highly recommend!

I was having significant wrist pain with very little range of motion. Instantly after the treatment, my entire wrist felt free, open, and I had full mobility. Very cool. Softwave therapy has helped me with my feet, my elbow, my lower back, and now my wrist. Give it a try, you will be very happy!

My chiropractors at Healthquest recommended Softwave with Paul Drilling for my continual low calf and achilles pulls and strains. I’m a tennis pro with many years of scar tissue to the lower leg areas. I’ve been so pleased with the results of Dr. Paul’s softwave therapy sessions. I’ve gone through a full ALTA season playing at AA1 with no repeat low calf/achilles injuries. First time in years!

I decided to sign up for more treatment on older injured areas. So far, my high hamstring injury that was 30% torn a year ago, has responded really well to treatment also with no further strain to the area.

I like how the softwave system is “investigative” at first. Dr. Paul runs the wand(?) probe(?) over the area. If the sound waves make the area sore then there is scar tissue or damage and an area to be treated. Spots that don’t hurt aren’t candidates for treatment. So there’s no time, energy, or money spent on surveying a wide general area that isn’t needing new red blood cells/stem cells.

Highly recommend!
