Why Knee Pain Isn’t Going Away on Its Own — And What to Do About It with SoftWave Therapy

Knee pain is one of the most common conditions we treat at Camarata Chiropractic & Wellness in North Chili, NY. Whether it’s from arthritis, sports injuries, or years of wear and tear, many people assume knee pain will simply “heal with time.” Unfortunately, that is rarely the case.

If your knee pain hasn’t improved — or keeps coming back — there’s a reason. And now, thanks to SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Therapy, you have a safe and effective way to not only reduce pain but also repair and restore knee function naturally.

Why Knee Pain Persists

Inflammation That Doesn’t Go Away

Acute injuries trigger inflammation — but in many cases, that inflammation lingers, causing chronic pain, stiffness, and swelling in the knee joint.

Cartilage Damage and Meniscus Tears

The meniscus and cartilage act as shock absorbers in the knee. Once damaged, they often don’t heal fully on their own due to poor blood supply, leaving you with ongoing pain.

Ligament and Tendon Strain

Repetitive stress, sports injuries, or sprains can lead to micro tears in ligaments and tendons around the knee. Without proper healing, these microtears turn into chronic pain sources.

Arthritis and Joint Degeneration

Osteoarthritis in the knee leads to joint space narrowing, inflammation, and “bone-on-bone” pain. Without addressing tissue health, arthritis symptoms usually worsen over time.

What Is SoftWave Therapy for Knee Pain?

SoftWave Therapy is a non-invasive, non-surgical treatment that uses advanced broad-focused acoustic waves to stimulate your body’s natural healing response. It’s trusted by leading institutions as well as college and professional athletes in MLB, NBA, NFL, UFC, PGA, Premier League & more — to speed recovery and restore function.

At Camarata Chiropractic & Wellness, we use SoftWave Therapy to target inflammation, repair tissue, and bring long-term relief for a wide range of knee conditions.

The Science Behind SoftWave for Knee Pain

SoftWave Therapy works by delivering a broad, unfocused acoustic wave deep into the tissues of the knee. This triggers powerful biological responses, including:

  • Stem Cell Activation – stimulating dormant stem cells to repair damaged tissue

  • Angiogenesis (new blood vessel growth) – improving circulation and nutrient delivery

  • Reduced Inflammation – calming pain-causing cytokines and inflammatory signals

  • Collagen Remodeling – repairing cartilage, ligaments, and tendons

  • Tissue Regeneration – restoring healthier, stronger structures inside the knee

This means patients not only experience fast pain relief, but also long-term healing that continues for weeks and months after treatment.

Common Knee Conditions SoftWave Helps

At our Rochester, NY clinic, SoftWave Therapy has shown excellent results for:

  • Meniscus tears (acute and chronic)

  • Osteoarthritis (“bone-on-bone” arthritis)

  • Patellar tendonitis (jumper’s knee)

  • ACL, MCL, and LCL sprains

  • Bursitis and chronic swelling

  • Post-surgical recovery

  • Sports-related knee injuries

How Many Treatments Will I Need?

Most patients complete a 6–8 week program, with weekly sessions. Each session builds on the last, reducing inflammation, promoting healing, and restoring mobility.

Many of our patients notice improvements after just 3-4 sessions, with continued progress long after the treatment program ends.

Why Choose SoftWave Over Surgery or Injections?

Unlike traditional options such as cortisone injections, pain medications, or surgery, SoftWave Therapy offers a safe, non-invasive, and regenerative solution:

  • No drugs, no downtime, no injections

  • Stimulates true tissue repair, not just symptom relief

  • Helps patients avoid knee replacement or meniscus surgery and accelerate recovery and rehab if surgery is necessary

  • Trusted by top athletes for recovery and performance

Many patients at Camarata Chiropractic & Wellness have been able to avoid knee surgery entirely after experiencing the results of SoftWave Therapy.
