Softwave therapy in Agoura Hills
FDA-Cleared Acoustic Wave Treatment for Chronic Pain, Soft Tissue Injuries & Athletic Injuries
If you’ve tried physical therapy, cortisone injections, or rest and you’re still dealing with the same pain, your body may need something that works at a deeper level.
SoftWave Therapy at ALIVE Wellness Center uses patented acoustic wave technology to stimulate your body’s own healing mechanisms at the cellular level. It’s non-invasive, research-backed, and trusted by leading medical institutions including the Cleveland Clinic, Mayo Clinic, and professional sports organizations.
Now available right here in Agoura Hills for women and active adults throughout the Conejo Valley, Los Angeles County, and Ventura County.
What is Softwave Therapy?
SoftWave Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses electrohydraulic supersonic acoustic waves delivered externally through a handheld device to stimulate healing deep within the body’s tissues. SoftWave works at the cellular level to improve circulation, reduce inflammation, activate connective tissue, and trigger the body’s natural repair process.
Each session typically takes 10–15 minutes, and requires no anesthesia, numbing agents, or recovery time.
SoftWave is not the same as traditional shockwave therapy. It uses a broader, unfocused wave pattern that covers more tissue area with less discomfort - making it suitable for a wider range of patients, including those who have found other treatments too intense or ineffective.
Personalized Protocols and Integrated Care
At ALIVE Wellness Center, SoftWave Therapy is not a standalone treatment - it’s integrated into a comprehensive, personalized healing protocol developed by Dr. Nimira Alibhoy over 14+ years of clinical practice.
Every SoftWave protocol at ALIVE is tailored to your body, your condition, and your pace. Dr. Nimira listens first, assesses thoroughly, and builds a plan that respects your history and your goals.
Many of our patients find that combining SoftWave therapy with upper cervical chiropractic care produces faster, more lasting results. While SoftWave addresses soft tissue healing and inflammation, upper cervical care restores nervous system balance - creating the optimal internal environment for healing.
What to Expect At Your Softwave Therapy Session
Before Your Session
Dr. Nimira will begin with a thorough consultation to understand your history, your symptoms, and your goals. She’ll assess whether SoftWave is appropriate for your condition and how it can be integrated into your care protocol.
During Your Session
A handheld device is gently moved over the treatment area, delivering acoustic waves to the tissue beneath the skin. Most patients describe the sensation as a deep tapping like that of a reflex hammer, but not painful.
Sessions typically last 10–15 minutes with no anesthesia or numbing agents required.
After Your Session
Side effects are minimal. Some patients experience temporary soreness in the treated area, typically resolving within 24–48 hours. There is no downtime so most patients return to normal activities immediately following treatment.
What Patients Are Saying About Softwave Therapy
I had the opportunity to receive treatment from Dr. Alibhoy using the innovative Softwave technology. Dr. Alibhoy was exceptional in explaining how Softwave works and its impressive ability to reduce inflammation significantly with just a few minutes of treatment each session. I can confidently say that her claims are true; my left knee feels fantastic and rejuvenated. I highly recommend Dr. Alibhoy for her expertise and the effectiveness of this cutting-edge technology. I’m now considering using the treatment for my right knee as well. Thank you again, Dr. Alibhoy!
Dr. Nimira is the best!!! I had trigger fingers in both hands and after a round of softwave therapy I can open, close, & make a fist with both hands. It’s been over a year. At the beginning of this year I hurt my knee. After weeks of resting, icing, & wearing a brace I decided to do a round of softwave therapy. I am back to walking on a treadmill & working out with no ice, brace, or pain. These treatments have allowed me to enjoy the things I love.
Dr. Nimira is the best! I started seeing her earlier this year for tinnitus and not only did she help me cure that, but also helped me control the migraines that I have suffered from since I was younger. I highly recommend Dr. Namira to anybody suffering tinnitus or migraines!
Updated to add that I have also now seen Dr. Namira for softwave for an injured shoulder as well and that has also been so helpful - the treatments have helped control the pain and avoid needing injections or surgery.
