Benefits of Softwave

What are the Benefits of Softwave Therapy for ED?

Unlike some more traditional treatment options, Softwave therapy gets right to the crux of the ED issue. It uses shock wave technology on a cellular level, helping to naturally heal body parts, like the penis. Some of the most common benefits of Softwave therapy include:

  • Increases Blood Supply to Penis
  • Facilitate Stronger Erections
  • Helps Men Maintain Erections
  • Stimulates and Activates Stem Cells in Your Body
  • Remodels and Repairs Tissue
  • Helps Reduce Pain

Additionally, Softwave treatments don't require much prep, don't have any sketchy side effects, don't require any numbing agents or anesthesia, and result in little-to-no recovery time. Sound too good to be true? Contact Elite Healthcare Physical Medicine today to learn just how effective Softwave therapy is for our patients!

Shockwave Therapy

How Does This Shockwave Therapy in Charleston, SC Work?

Softwave therapy works by using efficient, effective shock waves that cause biological regeneration processes that heal your body using its own healing factors. It works like this: Softwaves are created via a high-energy electrical discharge in water. The voltage is discharged between the plus and minus tips of an electrode. The spark gap or arching causes an equalization of voltage between the opposing tips of the electrode, which causes a hot plasma bubble. This bubble explodes and distributes in every direction, compresses the surrounding water, and generates a pressure > 10 MPa within nanoseconds.

To sum up, Softwave therapy uses low-intensity, unfocused energy that is delivered by a reflector in parallel waves. These waves help open up the blood vessels in your penis, allowing more blood to flow. At Elite Healthcare Physical Medicine, our team of expert physicians will develop a personalized Softwave therapy plan based on your body and needs. With the right number of treatments, you should be able to achieve and maintain firm erections as you did in your prime.

Healthcare Physical Medicine

What Can I Expect During a Softwave Therapy Session at Elite Healthcare Physical Medicine?

A Softwave therapy procedure averages 10-15 minutes but may be longer depending on treatment area and diagnosis. A gel is applied to the surface area to be treated. The applicator produces pulses as the clinician moves around the treatment area. During therapy, communication with your provider is necessary to identify treatment areas and monitor progress.

Once treatment is over, you may resume your normal day-to-day activities. In fact, most patients can have Softwave therapy while on their lunch break. You don't have to worry about recovery time, side effects, or any downtime at all.

Ideal Candidate

Who is the Ideal Candidate for Softwave Therapy?

More than 50% of men will experience erectile dysfunction at some point in their lives. If you're over the age of 30, have been suffering from ED, and don't want to rely on pills or surgery, Softwave therapy may be for you. That's doubly true if you've tried traditional treatments like Viagra and even surgery but didn't get the results you hoped for. Many academic studies about shockwave therapy for ED state that this revolutionary technology is successful where PDE5 inhibitors fail.

In fact, many urologists consider Softwave therapy the most promising ED treatment on the market. The truth is, even if you're not battling ED, men can use Softwave therapy as a preventative way to keep the magic flowing in the bedroom. Some of the key reasons to choose Softwave therapy over less effective, traditional treatments include:

  • No Reliance on Pills and Drugs
  • Softwave Therapy is Backed by Extensive Medical Research and Studies
  • Softwave Therapy Has a Vast Record of Success
  • Softwave Therapy is FDA-Approved for Enhanced Sexual Wellness
  • Now Available at Elite Healthcare Physical Medicine

Q. Has the FDA approved softwave therapy for ED in cityname, state?

A. Yes - Softwave therapy is FDA 510(k) approved for:

  • Improved Blood Supply (low blood flow is the primary cause of ED)
  • Chronic Foot Ulcers from Diabetes
  • Pain Reduction
  • Treatment in 2nd-Degree Burns

Q. Is softwave therapy painful?

A. Softwave therapy does not require surgery or any invasive form of treatment. With that said, some patients describe minimal discomfort or pain during our softwave treatments. Should this occur, your medical specialist will make necessary adjustments. Usually, patients do not have to endure any pain at all and only experience a pulse or tapping feeling on their skin.

Q. How long is a Softwave treatment session?

A. An individual session only takes five to fifteen minutes. It's typically recommended that patients have treatment once a week for three to five weeks. The length and frequency of your Softwave therapy sessions will be determined after you visit our medical clinic for a comprehensive evaluation.

Q. How long does it take for Softwave therapy to work?

A. Every patient we treat is different, and as such, will have different treatment recommendations. Often, patients notice the results of Softwave therapy after the first session. However, for the longest-lasting effects, most patients need between three and four treatments, with a week of non-treatment after every session.

Q. Can I combine Softwave therapy with other treatments from Elite Healthcare Physical Medicine?

A. It's hard to give a definitive answer to this question since every patient is different. It's important for you to have a full evaluation to determine the scope of your needs and the appropriate therapies. However, Softwave therapy often works very well with other treatments. In fact, other therapies offered at our medical clinic like massage therapy and chiropractic care can make Softwave treatment even more effective.

Remember - our team at Elite Healthcare Physical Medicine is always happy to answer any questions you may have about ED or our ED treatments. Give us a call today - it would be our pleasure to get to know you better!

Jimmy Buffett hospitalized for 'issues that need immediate attention,' cancels concert

Jimmy Buffett is revealing he was hospitalized Thursday.

The "Margaritaville" singer, 76, told fans in a statement posted to social media that he had to cancel a planned show in Charleston, South Carolina, due to "some issues that needed immediate attention."

“I had a sudden change of plans this week that affected us all,” he shared.

Buffett was returning from a trip to the Bahamas when he stopped in Boston for a "check-up," he said, after which he was hospitalized.

"Growing old is not for sissies, I promise you. I also will promise you that when I am well enough to perform, that is what I'll be doing in the land of She-Crab soup," Buffett added, ending his post with the reassurance "just remember, NOT YET!"

USA TODAY has reached out to Buffett's reps for further information.

Over the course of his long and award-winning career, Buffett has recorded 27 studio albums and won an ACM award for his hit song "It's Five O'Clock Somewhere," according to his website.

The singer is also known for his multibillion dollar empire, which includes resorts, liquor, casinos and RV parks all branded with the singer's stamp of a parrot and palm tree. In 2022, Buffett expanded to cruises by launching a regular schedule of voyages on the 658-cabin Margaritaville at Sea Paradise, chartered from Palm Beach, Florida, to Grand Bahama Island.

"Fun is a part of life":Jimmy Buffett extends his signature mantra to Margaritaville-themed cruise

The "Margaritaville" singer spoke to USA TODAY in 2020 about why he no longer drinks margaritas, releasing a new album and his multiple near-death experiences.

"I've had a couple close calls and I'm still here, so I think I've been living like it could be my last day for a long time," the actor said.

He also said his 2020 song "Live, Like It's Your Last Day" was inspired by his past experiences with a 1994 plane crash and 2011 stage fall.

Editorial: Charleston peninsula needs protection but in a creative way

Writing often can be improved after the writer leaves a draft alone for a time and returns to it with fresh eyes. Designing a $1 billion-plus barrier to protect peninsular Charleston from future storms and rising seas likely will benefit from the same deliberate approach.

So we have no misgivings about the fact that Charleston’s public discussions with the Army Corps of Engineers regarding a perimeter protection project have hit a months-long lull. After the Corps’ project dominated most of the city’s discussion last year, our civic focus has moved on to the different (but somewhat related) debate over the redevelopment of Union Pier.

But it’s important to keep two things in mind: The peninsula needs more protection if it is going to remain a viable place to live, work and play in the decades to come and our work on this project — including its important environmental, recreational and social benefits — will resume in the months to come.

There are four steps to protecting downtown, and the first one — assessing whether a project is financially feasible and ensuring the federal government will pick up 65% of its cost — is already done. The city and the Corps are now negotiating a contract for preliminary engineering and design work, the second step, and it’s taking a while because City Hall is wisely seeking a special agreement that will clarify its requirements and goals.

The design phase is critical because if it’s not done right, if the proposed design for the perimeter protection amounts to little more than a concrete wall, there won’t be a construction phase. Nor should there be. The city is seeking an agreement that clarifies its rights to propose aesthetic, recreational, nature-based elements to the project, the design of which also will vary widely along the route given the distinctly different natures of the miles of peninsula waterfront.

Also, while the Corps’ interest is strictly in protecting our low-lying city from future storm surges, whatever is built should do more than that. If designed well, it could provide protection from higher tides and even heavy, conventional rainfall. The perimeter protection system will include new pumps, which also should be designed to help with conventional drainage. The only question should be who pays for that. Likewise, a well-designed project could help improve water quality, enhance the public realm and reduce future operational and maintenance costs.

We hope the Corps of Engineers will show the flexibility needed to ensure Charleston’s project is designed with as much creativity as possible while still accomplishing the Corps’ main goals. We’re encouraged by a new executive order that urges the agency to deploy nature-based solutions to tackle climate change and enhance resilience. We expect Charleston’s perimeter protection will be a blend of nature-based options, such as oyster beds, mud flats and expanded marshes, along with man-made elements, such as ongoing work to raise the Low Battery at the peninsula’s southwestern edge.

Last week, the World Meteorological Organization said global temperatures are expected to soar to record highs over the next five years, with a 98% chance that one of those years will eclipse Earth’s hottest year on record, 2016. The city already is expecting 14 inches of sea level rise by 2050, which would threaten the livability of a chunk of downtown if nothing is done.

We have had a pause in the public engagement over how best to protect historic Charleston from rising seas and future storms, and that has presented a welcome opportunity for everyone to recharge on the issue. However, no one should mistake this quiet time as a sign that this is no longer a critical issue for our city. We must prepare to write a new chapter soon.

South Carolina is home to a myriad of beautiful beaches and a whole lot of southern, Lowcountry fun for all ages.

With that, comes surging summer travel.

The Auto Club Group advises those who have summer travel plans to book them soon. According to a news release, AAA is seeing strong bookings for cruises, flights, hotels and tours.

Popular destinations for SC travelers include the beach (57%), city/major metro areas (29%), national/state parks (27%), international travel (19%) and ocean/large cruise (18%).

This year, we've gathered the newest attractions at South Carolina's most popular beaches and coastal cities. From a South Carolina first to the anticipated completion of a reconstruction project, here are some ideas to make your beach trip complete.

Surfside Beach Pier Reconstruction Myrtle Beach's iconic Surfside Beach pier took a devastating blow back in 2016 when Hurricane Matthew slammed into the South Carolina coast. The storm, which downgraded from a category 5 to a category 2 before reaching the coast, did extensive damage to the pier, which lost 50% of its length. Those who walked the pier will be excited to know that the pier is currently undergoing reconstruction and is 90% in completion. It will be stronger than before and will feature a restaurant and vendors. Initially scheduled to open in the fall of 2022, the project has experienced multiple reopening delays since then. The project has taken nearly seven years in the making.

The burger and frozen custard business is heating up across the Lowcountry.

Freddy’s Frozen Custard and Steakburgers plans to build a restaurant on U.S. Highway 17A and Carnes Crossing Boulevard next to McBride Lane in front of Bellary Flats Apartments in Goose Creek, according to a stormwater permit application filed with state environmental regulators.

Its offerings include cooked-to-order steakburgers made with lean 100 percent ground beef, Vienna beef hot dogs, shoestring fries and frozen custard in vanilla flavor or made with freshly churned chocolate.

Once developed, the 3,385-square-foot restaurant will be a couple of miles north of competitor Culver’s, which opened on U.S. Highway 17A in 2019.

The new dining venue also will be the Kansas-based chain’s second Charleston-area location. The first one opened in 2021 at 4540 Ladson Road on an outparcel in front of Ladson Oakbrook Shopping Center next to Stars & Strikes bowling and arcade center.

It, too, is near Culver’s, which opened a restaurant a few miles north at 3848 Ladson Road in 2022. Another Culver’s opened earlier this year near Tanger Outlets in North Charleston.

A shared-office firm joins two others in the Lowcountry​​​​​​​ with new space for workers.

2: Number of new office buildings coming to a growing community near Summerville over the next two years.

+ Under scrutiny: Some say the rental housing industry is contributing to escalating home costs. Others say the lack of housing is a main contributor.

+ Construction ahead: Charleston International Airport is the state’s busiest, and it’s getting busier every year. The airport’s $119 million spending plan includes money to help get ready for expansion projects in the works.

The Honey Hive has fine drinks but maybe the best gluten-, dairy-free dessert in Charleston

Bar Tab is a recurring column in The Post and Courier Food section that highlights a locally made or sold adult beverage.

I might be overstepping my “drink critic” boundaries this week, but I simply have to talk about one particular food in Charleston that is currently top of my list.

I went to The Honey Hive, 563 King St., one April evening in search of new cocktails to try, of which the bar has a fine list. However, I left with my mind blown thanks to something else on the menu.

I’ve recently embarked on a gluten-and-dairy-free health journey that I’m hoping will last shorter rather than longer, but in my attempt to still enjoy delicious food in this new category, in addition to a few other parameters — no tomatoes, no soy, no vinegar included — I’ve come up fairly flat.

One dessert at The Honey Hive changed that all. The Oaxacan fudge brownie is still living in my dreams, and I am plotting my return trips. The dessert features an oat flour dark chocolate brownie topped with a champurrado ganache, guajillo chocolate crystals and a horchata semifreddo.

Gluten- and dairy-free or not, it is one of the best desserts I’ve ever had. Maybe I’m saying that because I’m delusional after a month of this diet and my tastebuds have shriveled up, but I’m pretty sure I’m right. It’s fantastic, and my non-gluten-and-dairy-free friend who joined me for a few bites agreed. Certainly for those with my same dietary restrictions, it’s a winner.

While you’re testing out my theory, you can also sample from a list of cocktails that includes the Anna Ravenel, Marilyn Monroe, Zelda Fitzgerald and Eartha Kitt. Yes, there is a theme. This bar certainly screams bachelorette party or girls’ night out destination.

For photographs of desserts, drinks and savory options alike, peruse the website in advance to see if anything tickles your fancy. Each menu item comes with a picture; I appreciate the transparency, and if you’re anything like me, your mouth will be watering for the Oaxacan fudge brownie before you’ve even tried it. Maybe my words in this article have kickstarted that even.

Please send me your gluten-and-dairy-free food suggestions and any desserts of this nature that might rival The Honey Hive at koyer@postandcourier.com.
