Neck Pain Relief in Chandler, AZ with SoftWave Therapy at Bridge Wellness Center

Published May 15th, 2025 by Bridge Wellness Center

Neck pain can have a devastating impact on your daily life—making it difficult to sleep, drive, work at a computer, or even turn your head. Whether caused by injury, poor posture, disc degeneration, or nerve irritation, chronic or acute neck pain can severely limit your ability to function and enjoy life.

At Bridge Wellness Center in Chandler, AZ, Dr. Matt McCutcheon and his team are helping patients find lasting, non-invasive relief from neck pain using the powerful and scientifically backed SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology. This breakthrough therapy is FDA-cleared, non-surgical, non-injection, and drug-free—designed to stimulate natural healing and restore function at the source of pain.

What Is SoftWave Therapy?

SoftWave Therapy is an advanced regenerative treatment developed in Germany that uses electrohydraulic, broad-focused acoustic waves traveling over 3,000 mph. These waves penetrate deep into the tissues of the cervical spine and surrounding muscles, tendons, and nerves, initiating a healing cascade at the cellular level.

SoftWave is unique in that it addresses both the pain and the underlying tissue damage—providing long-term benefits without the risks or downtime associated with surgery, steroid injections, or long-term medication use.

How SoftWave Therapy Heals the Neck Naturally

SoftWave promotes healing and pain relief through several key mechanisms:

  • VEGF and eNOS activation – increases microcirculation to nourish injured tissues

  • Neovascularization and angiogenesis – promotes the growth of new blood vessels

  • Inflammation modulation – helps calm chronic swelling and immune responses

  • Activation and migration of resident stem cells – repairs damaged soft tissues and nerves

  • Toll-like receptor modulation – reduces nerve hypersensitivity and chronic pain signaling

  • PCNA and BMP signaling – supports collagen formation and tissue regeneration

These biological responses allow SoftWave Therapy to treat the root causes of neck pain, not just the symptoms.

Conditions Treated with SoftWave Therapy for Neck Pain

Dr. Matt McCutcheon and the team at Bridge Wellness Center have used SoftWave successfully to help patients avoid surgery, reduce medication use, and return to an active, pain-free life. Common conditions treated include:

Neck Osteoarthritis

Degenerative changes in the cervical spine can lead to joint stiffness, pain, and limited mobility. SoftWave Therapy helps reduce inflammation, improve joint hydration, and stimulate the regeneration of cartilage and connective tissues.

Cervical Spine Radiculopathy

This condition occurs when a nerve root in the neck becomes compressed or irritated, causing radiating pain, numbness, or weakness in the arms and hands. SoftWave improves blood flow, reduces inflammation, and supports nerve healing.

Herniated Discs & Disc Bulges

Cervical disc problems can press on nearby nerves and cause sharp, radiating pain. SoftWave helps stimulate natural disc healing and reduce inflammation, often reducing the need for spinal injections or surgery.

Stiff Neck & Pinched Nerves

SoftWave effectively treats muscle tightness and nerve impingement, helping to restore flexibility and reduce pain caused by postural strain or prolonged computer and phone use.

Whiplash from Motor Vehicle Accidents

Whiplash injuries can create lasting neck pain, headaches, and soft tissue damage. SoftWave Therapy helps accelerate the healing of ligaments, tendons, and muscles injured in car accidents—often reducing the risk of long-term complications.

Headaches and Migraines Originating from the Neck

Cervicogenic headaches and tension-type migraines are often linked to dysfunction in the neck. By restoring mobility and reducing nerve irritation, SoftWave may help reduce the frequency and intensity of headaches.

Sports Injuries to the Neck

Athletes involved in contact sports or those with repetitive strain to the neck can experience tendon and ligament injuries. SoftWave speeds recovery and helps athletes return to training and competition safely.

Post-Surgical Neck Pain Recovery and Rehab

For patients recovering from cervical spine surgery, SoftWave helps reduce scar tissue, support tissue healing, and improve post-operative outcomes.

A Conservative Option That Delivers Powerful Results

SoftWave offers a non-invasive alternative for those suffering from neck pain who want to avoid:

  • Spinal surgery

  • Cortisone or epidural injections

  • Chronic use of muscle relaxers or pain medications

  • Prolonged physical therapy without progress

Patients often notice improvements after just a few sessions, with benefits such as:

  • Decreased pain and stiffness

  • Improved neck mobility and posture

  • Reduced frequency of headaches or radiating symptoms

  • Enhanced quality of sleep and daily function
