Why High School & College Football Athletes are Choosing SoftWave Therapy at DeBole Chiropractic in Farmington, NY

Football is a high-impact, high-performance sport that demands strength, speed, and resilience. But with those demands come injuries—sprains, strains, muscle pain, joint pain, and more. Whether it’s during pre-season training, mid-season competition, or post-season recovery, football players need a solution that helps them recover quickly, train harder, and stay in the game.

At DeBole Chiropractic in Farmington, NY, Dr. Mike DeBole is helping high school and college football athletes do just that with the power of SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Therapy (TRT)—a non-invasive, drug-free technology that supports pain relief, faster recovery, and tissue regeneration.

Why Football Athletes Are Choosing SoftWave Therapy

Football places tremendous stress on the body—especially the joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Injuries can be game-ending, season-ending, or worse if not managed properly.

SoftWave Therapy is becoming the go-to solution for football players at every level because it:

  • Provides fast-acting pain relief
  • Reduces inflammation and swelling
  • Improves mobility and range of motion
  • Accelerates injury healing and tissue repair
  • Enhances circulation and oxygen delivery via angiogenesis
  • Activates the body’s own stem cells to regenerate damaged tissue
  • Requires no downtime—making it perfect for in-season care

Whether it’s a sore shoulder from tackling, a hamstring strain from sprinting, or knee pain from overuse, SoftWave helps athletes recover faster and stay competitive.

SoftWave for Common Football Injuries

High School Football Athletes

High school athletes are still growing and developing, which means injuries can impact both their performance and their long-term health. SoftWave is ideal for young football players dealing with:

  • Ankle sprains
  • Patellar tendonitis
  • Shoulder injuries
  • Hamstring and quad strains
  • Osgood-Schlatter’s disease
  • Foot and toe pain (turf toe, plantar fasciitis)
  • Lower back pain and stiffness
  • Post-concussion muscular tension and recovery

SoftWave is safe, effective, and non-invasive—helping young athletes bounce back without medications, cortisone injections, or extended rest.

College Football Athletes

At the collegiate level, football athletes endure a more rigorous training and competition schedule. SoftWave is trusted by athletic departments across the country to support:

  • Muscle recovery after intense training
  • Joint repair for overuse injuries
  • Relief from tendonitis, bursitis, and joint impingement
  • Faster recovery from ligament strains and sprains
  • Enhanced circulation and endurance
  • Off-season injury rehab and post-surgical healing

Programs like Georgia, Nebraska, Penn State, Ohio State, Tennessee, and others are already integrating SoftWave into their athletic training rooms.

The Science Behind SoftWave for Football Performance

SoftWave doesn’t just relieve pain—it promotes true healing at the cellular level. Here's how:

How It Works

SoftWave uses electrohydraulic supersonic acoustic waves that penetrate deeply into soft tissues. These waves stimulate:

  • VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor): Promotes new blood vessel growth for improved healing
  • eNOS (Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase): Enhances circulation and oxygenation in tissues
  • Neoangiogenesis: Development of new microcirculation channels
  • PCNA (Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen): Supports DNA replication and tissue regeneration
  • Stem Cell Activation & Migration: Directs your body’s own healing cells to areas of damage
  • Toll-Like Receptors Modulation: Regulates inflammation and immune system response
  • Senescent Cell Clearance: Removes damaged cells to make space for new ones

This biological cascade makes SoftWave uniquely equipped to help football athletes recover faster, train harder, and perform better—without side effects or risks.

Safe, Trusted, and Used by the Pros

SoftWave is being used at the highest levels of sports medicine, including by team physicians and trainers in:

  • NFL
  • NCAA
  • MLB
  • NBA
  • NHL
  • PGA
  • UFC
  • MLS
  • Premier League

Now, this same elite-level therapy is available to student-athletes right here in Farmington, NY.
