K-Laser vs. SoftWave™: Two Breakthrough Therapies, One Powerful Combination
| Feature | K-Laser Therapy | SoftWave™ Therapy |
|---|---|---|
| Technology | Class IV therapeutic laser using 5 dynamic wavelengths | Focused acoustic wave system (electrohydraulic) |
| Mechanism of Action | Photobiomodulation — increases cellular energy (ATP), circulation, and oxygen delivery | Mechanical activation of biological healing through shear force and microtrauma |
| What It Does | Reduces inflammation, enhances nerve function, and accelerates tissue regeneration | Stimulates stem cell recruitment, disrupts scar tissue, and improves blood flow |
| Common Uses | Acute injuries, post-op healing, arthritis, neuropathic pain, inflammation | Chronic tendon issues, calcifications, plantar fasciitis, frozen shoulder |
| Penetration Depth | Variable depth targeting through multiple wavelengths | Deep tissue reach up to 12cm beneath the skin |
| Time Per Session | Typically 5–10 minutes per area | Usually 10–15 minutes depending on area size |
| Sensation | Mild warming or tingling sensation, non-invasive and comfortable | Firm pulsing or tapping; may feel intense depending on inflammation |
| Top Indications | Neuropathy, joint pain, inflammation, muscle recovery, surgical sites | Chronic injuries, degenerative tissue, scar tissue, enthesopathy |
| Recommended Frequency | 2–3 times per week for acute conditions; customized thereafter | 1–2 sessions weekly; spaced for regenerative response |
| When to Expect Results | Noticeable changes often after 3–6 sessions | Many patients feel relief during their first session |
Why Combine K-Laser and SoftWave™ Therapy?
Cellular Energy Boost
K-Laser stimulates mitochondrial activity and increases ATP production for deep tissue regeneration and pain reduction.
Shockwave-Like Activation
SoftWave delivers acoustic pulses that trigger a healing cascade, recruiting stem cells and promoting circulation at the cellular level.
Synergistic Pain Relief
Together, these therapies reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and relieve pain faster than either treatment alone.
Custom-Tailored Protocols
Dr. Sage designs an individualized plan combining the precision of K-Laser with the regenerative power of SoftWave for optimal healing.
