Foot and Ankle Pain Relief with SoftWave Therapy at Natural Way Chiropractic in Calgary
Every step you take relies on the complex structures of your feet and ankles working in harmony. When pain strikes—whether from injury, overuse, nerve issues, or inflammation—it can disrupt your daily life and limit your mobility. For people in Calgary dealing with chronic foot or ankle pain, there’s a breakthrough solution: SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology, now available at Natural Way Chiropractic with Dr. Kale Matovich and his expert team.
This advanced, non-invasive therapy is helping patients avoid surgery, reduce medications, and recover naturally—all without injections or downtime.
What Is SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Therapy?
SoftWave Therapy is a cutting-edge regenerative treatment that uses electrohydraulic supersonic acoustic waves, delivered via a broad focused energy shockwave, to stimulate healing at the cellular level. Developed in Germany, SoftWave promotes rapid recovery and tissue regeneration by initiating a cascade of biological responses, including reduced inflammation, improved circulation, and activation of stem cells.
It is completely non-surgical, drug-free, and non-invasive, making it an excellent alternative to traditional treatments for foot and ankle pain.

Why Foot and Ankle Pain Is So Common—and Difficult to Treat
Your feet and ankles bear the full weight of your body and absorb massive impact forces with every step, jump, or run. With 26 bones, 30 joints, and over 100 muscles, tendons, and ligaments, it’s no surprise this area is vulnerable to injury, inflammation, and nerve entrapment.
Traditional treatments—such as corticosteroid injections, orthotics, or surgery—may not provide lasting results and often come with side effects or recovery time. SoftWave Therapy addresses the root cause of dysfunction by working with the body’s natural healing processes.
The Science Behind SoftWave Therapy
SoftWave Therapy creates a deep biological response to support recovery and regeneration. Here's how it works:
-
Modulates inflammation by interacting with toll-like receptors
-
Improves blood flow and oxygenation through angiogenesis and VEGF release
-
Stimulates nitric oxide production via eNOS for cellular and vascular repair
-
Releases BMPs (bone morphogenetic proteins) to rebuild connective tissue
-
Activates PCNA to promote cell replication and tissue renewal
-
Triggers activation and migration of resident stem cells to damaged or inflamed tissue
These mechanisms help reduce pain, enhance mobility, and accelerate healing, even in chronic or treatment-resistant foot and ankle conditions.
