From serious sports injuries causing tissue damage to bone issues and stiffness that comes with age, living with pain is, well, a pain. But it's more than that - it's a stressful, often upsetting way to get through your day, month, and year. Have you ever tried to get out of bed with sore, stiff knees? Most folks would rather just get back in bed. Think you might try exercising with plantar fasciitis? Don't plan on running far or doing cardio for very long. Torn rotator cuff? Without proper treatment, your life might not ever be the same.
Living with pain and the inevitable issues that come with age can seriously affect your wellbeing and happiness. Sure, you could wake up every morning and rely on addicting medications to help you move. Or, you could risk further injury and damage with invasive surgeries that require long periods of recovery and downtime. But those can't be the only two options for treatment, can they?
Fortunately, a new, natural, non-invasive treatment for pain is revolutionizing the medical industry and transforming people's lives. It's giving athletes, average folks, and people of a certain age a reason to be hopeful. It's called Softwave therapy, and unlike many fly-by-night medications and sketchy treatments, it's backed by science and provided by Elite Healthcare Physical Medicine.
If you're barely making it through the day suffering from chronic pain, this FDA-approved drug-free treatment may be for you. Softwave therapy has already been used by thousands of people around the country living with issues like shoulder pain, knee pain, and plantar fasciitis. You could be next.
Though its popularity has only grown in recent years, Softwave therapy - also known as shockwave therapy - has been around for years. In fact, the first systematic study into the benefits of shockwave therapy took place way back in 1950. So, what is Softwave therapy?
Softwave therapy is a method of treatment that works incredibly well for mobility rehab, pain relief, and full-body recovery, usually from chronic pain or injuries. Softwave therapy uses a device emitting low-energy soundwaves that target a patient's injured area. These low-intensity waves boost blood flow and kickstart your body's natural healing processes, relieving long-term pain and helping your body to heal a wide range of injuries and conditions.
The main targets in the body include bones, tendons, and other soft tissues, which are encouraged to regenerate and repair via the shockwaves. Often, shockwave therapy is used in conjunction with other non-invasive treatments like chiropractic care, which we offer at Elite Healthcare Physical Medicine. The results are often incredible, leaving patients wondering why they never tried Softwave therapy before.
Softwave therapy works especially well for:
Better Blood Flow
Collagen Stimulation
Reducing Inflammation
Kickstarting cell growth and healing factors
Breaking down build-ups of calcium
With FDA clearance, little-to-no side effects, and quick application time, Softwave therapy is a welcome alternative for people suffering from pain. Who wants to spend weeks or months recovering from a surgery that might not even work? Likewise, who would want to become dependent on over-the-counter or, even worse, prescription pain meds? Living a life of addiction is a road nobody wants to go down.
Softwave therapy represents a revolution in non-invasive pain treatment; best of all, it's highly effective. Independent studies prove that shockwave therapy helps with pain. 65-91% of patients using shockwave therapy experienced real-deal improvements in damaged muscle and bone tissue, solving their mobility problems and drastically reducing pain. It almost sounds too good to be true, but as many patients at Elite Healthcare Physical Medicine will tell you - it isn't.
Book AppointmentSome of the most common conditions that Softwave therapy treats include:
When you get up in the morning and go to the bathroom to brush your teeth, do you notice a stabbing, sharp pain near your heel? Does the pain go away once you have a chance to walk around? If so, you could have plantar fasciitis. According to the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons, this painful condition is quite common. About two million people suffer from plantar fasciitis every year, and almost 10% of all people will experience the condition at least once in their life.
This common foot issue happens when the plantar fascia - a fan-shaped tissue near your heel - gets inflamed. The plantar fascia is a thick strip of connective tissue that links your toes to your heel bone, helping to preserve the arch of your foot. When this band is strained, it causes intensely sharp pain, usually in the morning when you wake up and plant your feet on the floor.
Most folks ignore plantar fasciitis because the pain eventually goes away throughout the day. However, if left untreated, plantar fasciitis can lead to weakness and chronic pain, which may affect daily walking.
Some causes of plantar fasciitis include:
The short answer to this question is not really. Patients with plantar fasciitis will ice the affected area with little-to-no relief since they spend so much time on their feet. It's hard to rest an achy heel if you've got a job that requires you to be on your feet. Anti-inflammatory meds like Advil don't work all that well, either. They may provide temporary pain relief, but in terms of a long-term solution, taking these drugs will cause major side effects.
Book AppointmentWhen more conservative treatment options like ice and over-the-counter meds don't work, most doctors turn to ultra-expensive orthotics, steroid injections, or invasive surgery. For the average person, those options fail on all fronts, as they carry risks for side effects and may even cause the issue to worsen.
Instead of going under the knife or changing their daily routines, many people suffering from plantar fasciitis are turning to Softwave therapy for relief.
During a shockwave therapy session, our expert providers use a special probe to deliver pressure waves to inflamed tissue. These waves trigger natural healing processes causing new blood vessels to form. In turn, oxygen is supplied to the affected area, reducing inflammation and causing healthy cells to regenerate. Shockwave therapy also produces collagen, which is crucial for connective tissue health.
With just a few visits, many patients find long-term relief from plantar fasciitis without relying on strange drugs or harmful surgeries.
Living with knee pain is just miserable. From knee tendonitis to osteoarthritis, knee pain can prevent you from enjoying activities and affect your day-to-day life. Your knee is a joint comprised of cartilage, bone, ligaments, and fluids. Tendons and muscles within the knee help the joint move. When one of these crucial knee structures is hurt or compromised, it results in knee pain and long-lasting knee problems. This, in turn, leads to difficulty walking at best and debilitating knee issues at worse.
If you're an active person or somebody who plays sports often, you're probably all too familiar with knee pain - especially common conditions like patellar tendinopathy. Also called "jumpers knee," this issue happens at the patellar tendon, which is found on the front of the knee just under the knee cap. When living with this condition, most patients experience pain around the kneecap or lower down on the leg around the tibia.
In addition to injuries and issues like jumper's knee, everyday wear and tear will cause knee pain over time. With time, this knee pain can develop into arthritis. If your knees are swollen, painful, or stiff, you may have arthritis in your knees. Regardless of the kind of knee pain you're experiencing, treatment options have been limited to agonizing surgeries and addicting pain medications. But that all changes with shockwave therapy for knee pain in Mount Pleasant, SC.
Though no two knee pain problems are exactly the same, shockwave therapy has been shown to be highly effective for knee pain. In fact, many patients at Elite Healthcare Physical Medicine find relief after just one session. Many times, sessions can be completed in as little as 30 minutes. So if you want to find relief for knee pain on your lunch break, that's definitely possible.
As is the case with plantar fasciitis, Softwave therapy works by sending sound wave and low-energy impulses to the affected area of your knee. These pulses stimulate your body's healing factors, which can help regenerate and repair damaged tendons and tissues. Softwave therapy for knee pain is especially promising for people who have tried other treatments - like surgery and pain meds - with disappointing results.
Benefits include:
Several studies and reviews prove that Softwave therapy can be very beneficial for people suffering from knee pain problems like jumper's knee. A study involving 66 patients with knee pain found that they enjoyed a significant improvement in their reported pain levels with Softwave therapy. In fact, knee pain was reduced by nearly 50% after a single month. When combined with other regenerative and physical therapy treatments at Elite Healthcare Physical Medicine, your days of living with knee pain are numbered.
Book AppointmentHere's a fact for you to consider: Every joint that you have in your body plays a part in your day-to-day life. But when we think of joint issues, we typically jump to knee issues. However, your knees aren't the only joints in your body to go through wear and tear. Your shoulders experience just as much, if not more, wear and tear than your knees. We put a strain on our shoulders just about every time we use or move our arms. Our shoulders play a pivotal part in living a normal life. When they begin to deteriorate over time due to age or overuse, it creates a litany of painful problems.
There are many causes of shoulder pain, like deterioration, inflammation, and trauma. Of the many painful shoulder conditions affecting Americans yearly, rotator cuff tendonitis and arthritis are very common. Also called calcific tendinitis, rotator cuff pain is caused by built-up calcium deposits on the shoulder's tendons, which connect your rotator cuff to nearby muscles and bones. This painful condition is usually linked to sports, like basketball and volleyball, or in professions requiring repetitive movements, like in the plumbing industry.
Some common symptoms of shoulder pain and rotator cuff tendinitis include:
Though strengthening exercises and some medications provide temporary relief for shoulder pain, they're not meant as long-term solutions. Luckily, Softwave therapy for rotator cuff pain in Mount Pleasant, SC, can help.
Shockwave therapy has been shown to work wonders for shoulder pain. Low-intensity shockwaves break up calcium deposits and jumpstart your body's healing processes, stimulating blood flow and healthy cell growth. Shockwave treatment is especially effective for long-term shoulder pain since it releases stem cells, sends growth factors to the affected area, and boosts capillary production. Shockwave therapy has also been shown to break down scar tissue and eliminate trigger points, all of which decrease shoulder pain. This relief is most often long-lasting, unlike other treatments like medications and injections.
Many studies support the efficacy of Softwave therapy for shoulder conditions like rotator cuff pain and calcific tendonitis of the shoulder. In a study of 84 patients living with long-term rotator cuff tendonitis, participants in the treatment group saw a significant decrease in the intensity of their shoulder pain. Another study related to shockwave therapy for calcific tendonitis found that 86.6% of patients experienced fewer calcifications.
If you're having to live with rotator cuff pain or another type of shoulder issue, choosing Softwave therapy may be your best course of action.

If only these walls could talk! They’d sure have plenty to say. They would tell about when General William Moultrie held a parley here with Lord Cornwallis during the Revolutionary War. They’d also talk about the scores of ships that pulled up to nearby docks, bringing visitors from near and far. And they’d talk about the two little children who dug for hidden treasures just outside the walls.
Shannon and David Wood, the current owners of the Hibben House, know the stories. That’s because Shannon grew up next door and remembers Julie McIver, the owner of 111 Hibben St. back then, reciting them to her. After all, McIver’s family had lived in the house for nearly a century, so she knew those stories by heart. But the house resembled a museum then and was filled with antiques. That was only natural, since McIver’s mother, Petrona Royall McIver, was a local historian.
When the Woods family purchased the house 10 years ago, they had young daughters and wanted the home to be more comfortable for their family’s lifestyle. So, their version of the house’s interior is tailored for casual living. The walls are painted light colors and adorned with local art, some of it Shannon’s own work.
“I like the walls to be bright. That makes the art pop. And I like the lived-in feel. It’s important to me to not be too formal or stuffy,” Shannon explained. The blend of ancient oak floors, wainscoting and pocket doors with modern light fixtures, granite countertops and contemporary furnishings (along with some antiques) is more to her family’s liking. “I love the eclectic mix.”
The house was built circa 1755 by Jacob Motte as part of his plantation named – you guessed it – Mount Pleasant. It’s believed to be the oldest structure in town. James Hibben purchased the house and the surrounding 67 acres from Motte’s estate in 1803 and divided the tract into 35 lots for residential development, 10 of which he gave to his 10 children to build their homes. Five streets were also laid out – Beach, Bennett, Whilden, Boundary and Venning – and the village of Mount Pleasant was born.
When Motte built the house, it was only half the size it is now. The two symmetrical wings or bump outs, as Shannon calls them, were added by a more recent owner, an Englishman, to give the house a much larger living space – now almost 3,900 square feet. He also added a heavily windowed sunroom providing ample light and a breathtaking view of the harbor. And he installed air conditioning. Shannon remembered, “Miss Julie (McIver) never felt the need to put in air conditioning. The open windows and doors were enough to capture the harbor breeze and keep it comfortable inside.” She also recalled that, “for years, a cannonball held the door open. Miss Julie’s father had found it in the sandbank. It’s gone now, so I guess the Englishman took it with him.”
Since transportation was primarily by boat centuries ago, the large porch and entrance facing the harbor was originally the front of the house. In 1890, the other side, facing Hibben Street, became the front. That’s when the columns were added.
Shannon’s parents bought the house in 2012, thinking one of their four grown children might eventually want to buy it from them. Shannon and David took them up on the offer. They have transformed the half-acre property into an urban retreat, complete with a putting green and garden overlooking the harbor. Shannon explained, “This is where we put most of our money. It was just a dirt yard before.” But David, who enjoys gardening, has kept the century-old camellias that McIver planted and tended.
Shannon owns a framed copy of a letter between Washington and Cornwallis that she obtained from the Charleston Library Society in which Cornwallis offered land in Jamaica to Washington if he surrendered (obviously, he refused). And on her modern coffee table, she displays a glass box showcasing various artifacts – shards of pottery and the like – that she and her brother found in the yard when they were children. “Miss Julie (McIver) would let us dig. We were always digging up stuff. If I wasn’t an artist, I’d be an archaeologist!” Shannon mused.
The house has had only a handful of owners over its nearly 270 years. “We are thrilled to have this house!” exclaimed Shannon. And for her, it’s coming full circle – from having grown up next door, then living with her husband at Pirates Cove and I’On and now back here. “I feel like it was meant to be. I think Miss Julie (McIver) is our guardian angel – she wanted us to be here. And I feel as though I have a responsibility to preserve the house for Miss Julie’s sake and share its rich history with future generations.”

For as long as Mark Pulley can remember, he has been working in the food and beverage industry. Growing up in Ware Shoals, South Carolina, a small town of about 3,000 residents and 81 students in his graduating class, Pulley started his career cooking and waiting tables in a restaurant owned by a friend of his mother’s. When Pulley decided to expand his horizons and leave a town where everybody knows everybody, he moved to Greenville, where he waited tables at various chain restaurants. Everything changed the day that one of the bartenders called in sick and Pulley had to fill in. That moment marked the start of his new career as a mixologist.
Praised by his customers for being friendly, attentive, quick on his feet and for crafting excellent bloody marys and margaritas, Pulley soon found himself behind the bar at a popular tippling spot in downtown Greenville. Cranking out the tips every night, Pulley learned that the establishment was being sold and it seemed the perfect time to pursue his dream of moving to Charleston to live near the beach.
Here in Mount Pleasant, he started bartending at what was formerly known as East Coast Wings and worked his way up to bar manager. Not long after, Pulley learned that the joint was being sold to Perry Freeman. Pulley wasn’t too worried about finding a new job though, as some 150 to 200 regulars emailed Freeman urging him to keep Pulley on staff because as they said, “He comes with the building.”
Now, seven years later, Pulley still enjoys slinging drinks behind the bar in the same location, called Charleston Sports Pub. He said his favorite cocktail to make during the summer is what he calls “Mark’s Special Sunrise.” To craft the delicious and refreshing drink, Pulley suggested using equal amounts of pineapple, cranberry and orange juices, along with 1.5 oz of Malibu Rum and a splash of ginger ale. His bar menu favorites include the bird dog fries, a pretzel, stuffed jalapenos or the crowd pleasing fried green tomatoes.
The most rewarding part of his job, Pulley said, is meeting people, whether it’s visitors or locals and listening to their stories. “Plus,” he added, “my passion is getting to come to work and watch sports every day.”
When asked about earning the Best Bartender of Mount Pleasant award two years in a row, Pulley said he’s going for a third. “It’s not just me,” he said. “It’s the bar staff. I share the award with everybody.”
To meet Pulley, drop by the pub anytime during the day on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays or at night on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. You won’t find him behind the bar on weekends, however, because he’ll be watching sports either on the big screen at Kickin’ Chicken or traveling with friends somewhere to catch the Green Bay Packers or the Atlanta Braves.

MOUNT PLEASANT S.C. (WCBD)-After years of planning for a new entertainment venue in Mount Pleasant, that idea is one step closer to life as developers presented new renderings of the space called Gather Mount Pleasant to town officials.
On Wednesday, during a preliminary review with the Town of Mount Pleasant Design Review Board, the renderings were approved with minor tweaks. Developers said the board wanted more plans to eliminate traffic congestion.
In 2021, developers proposed a new entertainment and retail space in the heart of Mount Pleasant right off Hungry Neck Boulevard near Interstate 526.
“This area is so central within Mount Pleasant. It’s incredibly accessible, and we feel like it’s hidden in plain sight, a little bit kind of, you know, diamond, a diamond in the rough, and we feel like there’s a need in this little pocket of Mount Pleasant for walkable bike, food, and beverage, and it works. We’re excited to bring that,” said Mack Cross, A Co-Developer of Gather Mount Pleasant.
The multi-million-dollar project would sit on 5 acres. Developers said the venue will have a stand-alone restaurant, office space, retail space for small business owners, an outdoor common area, space for live entertainment, and a parking lot.
“We want to ensure the development is perfect for the community, and that’s folks who live nearby. Still, the greater Charleston community, which we think works well, is a casual space that is great for families. Great for groups, easy to get to with excellent food and service,” Preston Wendell, A Co-developer of Mount Pleasant.
One resident I spoke to said he’s familiar with the developer’s first location Gather Greenville, and he’s excited about the possibility of the venue coming to Mount Pleasant.
“I am super excited about having one right here in the community because we don’t cook very often, and so it’s an easy option just to walk right over and, as I said, a lot of options as far as food and that sort of thing live music it’s fun,” said Rick Schaltegger, a resident in Mount Pleasant.
The development company has the final hearing in August, and Officials said they hope to break ground by the end of 2024.

MOUNT PLEASANT, S.C. (WCSC) - Residents of Mount Pleasant can still provide input on a road improvement project on the Rifle Range Trail and Long Point Trail.
The Charleston Moves organization wants Mount Pleasant residents to weigh in on these designs before it’s too late.
The Town of Mount Pleasant hosted an in-person meeting to collect community input on the proposed Rifle Range Trail and Long Point Trail segments as part of the Mount Pleasant Way project.
For those who could not attend the meeting, online surveys are set for residents to vote on.
The goal of the project is to provide safe and efficient infrastructure for everyone to get around the town.
Questions that are featured on the survey ask if the concept is supported and what amenities residents would like to see included in the projects like benches, swings, water fountains and workout stations.
The Long Point Trail would provide continued access between the river crossing and neighborhoods.
The Rifle Range Trail is a proposed multi-use path project that is proposed to run along the west side of Rifle Range Road from the roundabout at Venning Road to Bragg Drive.
Friday is the last day to share your input and click to complete the survey for the Rifle Range Trail and Long Point Trail segments.
