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

Published May 29th, 2025 by Bridge Wellness Center

Shoulder pain can make everyday life a struggle—from reaching overhead and lifting groceries to sleeping comfortably or playing your favorite sport. Whether your pain is caused by overuse, injury, or degeneration, living with shoulder pain isn’t something you have to accept.

At Bridge Wellness Center in Chandler, AZ, Dr. Matt McCutcheon and his team offer a cutting-edge, non-invasive solution: SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology. This advanced therapy is transforming the way shoulder injuries and chronic pain are treated—without drugs, injections, or surgery.

What Is SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Therapy (TRT)?

SoftWave Therapy is a breakthrough regenerative treatment developed in Germany that uses electrohydraulic, broad-focused acoustic waves traveling at over 3,000 mph. These acoustic waves penetrate deep into the shoulder’s soft tissues and joints, stimulating powerful biological healing responses at the cellular level.

Unlike other treatments that merely mask the pain, SoftWave Therapy promotes true tissue repair and regeneration, offering lasting relief and improved function.

How SoftWave Helps Heal Shoulder Injuries and Pain

SoftWave Therapy works by triggering a cascade of regenerative effects, including:

  • VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor) – stimulates the growth of new blood vessels to restore circulation

  • eNOS (Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase) – increases nitric oxide production for enhanced oxygen delivery and reduced inflammation

  • Activation and migration of resident stem cells – encourages cellular regeneration and healing of soft tissues

  • PCNA and BMP signaling – promotes DNA repair and collagen remodeling in damaged tendons and ligaments

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

  • Inflammation modulation – helps control swelling, tissue irritation, and stiffness

These mechanisms allow SoftWave to address the root causes of shoulder pain while accelerating the healing process—without the need for invasive procedures or downtime.

Shoulder Conditions Treated with SoftWave Therapy

Dr. Matt McCutcheon and his team at Bridge Wellness Center have successfully helped patients overcome a wide variety of shoulder conditions using SoftWave Therapy, including:

Osteoarthritis of the Shoulder

Degeneration of the cartilage within the shoulder joint can lead to pain, stiffness, and decreased range of motion. SoftWave stimulates blood flow and supports cartilage regeneration to reduce pain and improve joint function.

Shoulder Impingement Syndrome

When the rotator cuff tendons become irritated from pinching under the acromion bone, SoftWave helps relieve inflammation, improve mobility, and restore pain-free motion.

Rotator Cuff Tears and Tendinitis

Whether from wear-and-tear or acute injury, rotator cuff issues are among the most common shoulder problems. SoftWave supports the regeneration of torn tendons and reduces inflammation for faster recovery without injections or surgery.

Bursitis of the Shoulder

Bursitis occurs when the fluid-filled sacs (bursae) in the shoulder become inflamed, causing pain and limited movement. SoftWave helps reduce swelling and promotes healing of the irritated bursae.

AC Joint Sprain

The acromioclavicular joint can be injured during falls or sports trauma. SoftWave helps heal soft tissue damage around the AC joint and reduces chronic inflammation.

Sports Injuries

From overhead throwing sports to contact athletics, SoftWave helps athletes recover from shoulder injuries like strains, sprains, and soft tissue overuse—naturally and efficiently.

Bicep Tendonitis

Inflammation of the biceps tendon at the front of the shoulder can lead to sharp pain during movement. SoftWave reduces tendon inflammation and promotes healing of microtears.

SLAP Tears and Labrum Injuries

Labral tears (including SLAP lesions) can cause instability and deep joint pain. SoftWave Therapy supports labral healing by stimulating tissue regeneration and improving joint stability.

Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis)

This condition causes stiffness and severe restriction in range of motion. SoftWave improves circulation, reduces inflammation, and helps break up scar tissue that limits joint movement.

Shoulder Tendinitis

SoftWave is ideal for addressing tendon inflammation and breakdown by supporting collagen repair, tissue remodeling, and improved blood flow to the affected areas.

A Better Alternative to Injections and Surgery

Cortisone injections may provide temporary pain relief, but they do not heal the tissue—and over time, they can weaken tendons and joints. Surgery is often invasive, expensive, and involves lengthy recovery.

SoftWave Therapy offers a better option:

  • Non-invasive

  • No medications or injections

  • No downtime

  • Clinically proven to stimulate healing

  • Effective for both acute and chronic conditions

Most patients experience improvements in pain, range of motion, and function within just a few sessions—making SoftWave an ideal choice for those looking to heal naturally and get back to doing what they love.
