Struggling with Knee or Shoulder Pain that won't improve?
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.

When 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 Pawley's Island, 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 Pawley's Island, 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.

Three towns in South Carolina were listed as some of the favorites to visit nationwide, according to FamilyDestinationsGuide.com following a poll conducted on thousands of families across the country.
After determining the top 150 “best small towns in America,” three of them were found to be within the Palmetto State.
Small towns have become increasingly popular vacation destinations and travel sites for families as the quaintness can offer a sizable reduction of traveling stress, grant more time together and even be more budget-friendly.
“Visiting small towns has become increasingly popular as travelers seek authentic and personalized experiences that provide a break from the fast-paced, commercialized world. These hidden gems offer a unique opportunity to immerse oneself in the local culture, connect with friendly communities, and escape the stress of everyday life.” said Rose Ackermann of FamilyDestinationsGuide.com.
As for South Carolina, Beaufort, Georgetown and Aiken all made the list and are no strangers to being crowned as some of the state’s favorite small towns.
Georgetown came in at 53rd overall and was described by the site as a place where families can enjoy the nearby beaches, which include Litchfield Beach and Pawleys Island.
Downtown Historic Georgetown is reportedly the third oldest city in South Carolina and is described as a must visit destination for those who enjoy waterfront shopping, dining, boating, fishing, historic tours, and ghost tours, according to Historic Georgetown. The site also describes Georgetown as a “perfect place” for a destination wedding.
In 59th overall, Aiken was described to offer families a variety of dining and shopping options, which can allow for ample possibilities for spending some quality time together.
Visitaikensc.com described the town as having numerous attractions, such as equine pursuits for those interested in horseback riding, arts, sporting facilities, an abundance of nature, a part played in the nation’s railroad birth and the fight in the Cold War era. A visit to Aiken allows guests to get outdoors, experience history, have ample shopping opportunities and walk through parks.
Beaufort came in 67th overall due to its rich history, beautiful beaches and abundance of outdoor activities, according to FamilyDestinationsGuide.com.
“Families can explore the historic downtown area, take a boat tour of the harbor, or spend the day at one of the many nearby beaches. There are also plenty of outdoor activities such as kayaking, fishing, and biking. With its unique culture, stunning scenery, and variety of activities, Beaufort is the perfect place for a family vacation,” the site continued.
Beaufort is known for winning many accolades and for its breathtaking Lowcountry scenery. In addition, Beaufort has been seen in big-name movies and has racked up some impressive statistics.
According to Beaufort.com, several famous movies have been filmed in Beaufort, such as Forrest Gump, The Prince of Tides and The Big Chill. The site also states that Beaufort contains about 25% of the marshlands on the country’s entire coast.
Although none of the SC towns made it into the top 10, the 10 selected “best small towns” following the poll included:

PAWLEYS ISLAND, S.C. (WMBF) - Pawleys Island town council has voted unanimously to increase the golf cart permit fee to $25 effective immediately.
The reason for the increase according to Mayor Brian Henry is the increased workload for town administrators.
“We’ve got two administrative employees that are balancing a significant workload, more so than they have in the past, and enforcement. We have law enforcement officers out on the streets every single day,” said Henry.
The town paused the distribution of permits until the vote for the new fee. The old fee was $10 for the year.
“Carts with no decals, we did issue a significant amount of summons last year, parking summons for vehicles with no decals. If we do find one that is unoccupied and parked illegally, we put a boot on it,” said Chief Mike Fanning of Pawleys Island P.D.
Before the vote, residents were able to give their opinions on the increase.
“I can understand why you want more money, but there are other ways to go about it. You could try the cars parking here coming from out of town. You could charge less if it’s done online or in person,” said Wayne.
“If we’re doing this to generate revenue, we’re missing the big picture. You could be generating a lot more revenue by people coming and going off this Island on a regular basis,” said Rick.
While some residents didn’t mind paying the increase, they wondered if outside-the-town golf cart owners would have to pay.
“I have no problem paying golf cart fees, my understanding is the golf cart fee is for carts driven by the owners. I believe there are many golf carts that are on the Island that park at the beach that are not driven by the owners,” said John Batiste.
“In addition to current rules, maybe come up with best practices for users, especially the renters and rentals. Publish and share them,” said Chuck Supple.

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. - The place that calls itself "Golftown, U.S.A." is starting to get its mojo back.
Recently, the Charleston Post & Courier reported that Myrtle Beach is in talks with the PGA Tour to bring elite professional golf to the area for the first time.
Myrtle Beach Chamber of Commerce CEO Karen Riordan confirmed the two sides are working towards an agreement to bring the tour to town for at least a four-year stint, with the first event, tentatively called the Myrtle Beach Classic, to play out in May of 2024.
No host venue has been named as yet, but the leading candidate would seem to be the Dunes Golf & Beach Club, the Robert Trent Jones, Sr. design that has anchored the area golf scene since it opened in 1948. Recent renovations overseen by Jones' son Rees have updated bunkering and stretched the course out to more than 7,400 yards. It was a stout test when it co-hosted the PGA Professional Championship in 2014; Michael Block's winning score of 2-under par that year was the highest since 2005. In addition, The Dunes has hosted PGA Tour Q-school finals (1973), the Senior Tour Championship (1994-1999) and three U.S.G.A. championships: the U.S. Women's Open (1962), the U.S. Senior Women's Amateur (1977) and the U.S. Women's Four-Ball (2017).
Other area courses with the potential to host the infrastructure and crowds a PGA Tour stop would bring would be the Dye Club at Barefoot Resort (perennial host of the Monday After the Masters pro-am) and TPC Myrtle Beach (which hosted the 2000 Senior Tour Championship soon after it opened). But The Dunes would be the strongest choice.
The addition of a PGA Tour event - especially one that becomes a pillar of next year's revamped schedule - would figure to bump Myrtle Beach up from #11 on our list of the world's top 100 golf destinations.
Nearly four and a half years after original architect Jack Nicklaus returned to the course to offer suggestions for its improvement, Pawleys Plantation Golf & Country Club in Pawleys Island, S.C., will embark upon a four-month renovation project this summer, as the course turns 35 years old. Nicklaus associate Troy Vincent will lead the project with the primary goal to bring a bit more playability to a layout that has long been regarded as one of the most demanding in resort golf.
In addition to restoring the course's greens to their original sizes after decades of shrinkage, Vincent will reduce some of the bunkering, including several large, tough-to-maintain expanses of sand that primarily ensnare - and enrage - high handicappers. The remaining bunkers will be rebuilt with the state-of-the-art Capillary Concrete drainage system, which prevents washouts after big rain events. Vincent will also oversee some significant tree removal, which will help the course breathe and make maintenance a bit easier.
"Pawleys Plantation has been a fixture in the Myrtle Beach area since its opening in 1988," said Vincent. "When completed, you can expect larger greens, less bunkering and more native areas that will be playable."
Other updates at Pawleys Plantation include clubhouse renovations, including new outdoor dining areas overlooking the 18th green.
Pawleys Plantation is one of 21 Myrtle Beach-area courses owned and operated by Founders Group International (FGI). Grande Dunes Resort Club, another FGI property, received a similar renovation last year, as well as its own clubhouse upgrades. And Pine Lakes Country Club, the area's oldest course (originally opened in 1927), is maturing in the wake of its own renovation in 2021.
Some other area properties are tentatively scheduled for updates this year, with a focus on clubhouse renovations at River Club and Willbrook Plantation Golf Club in Pawleys Island, as well as some bunker work at the Arthur Hills-designed PineHills Course at Myrtlewood Golf Club and Long Bay Club, the area's other Jack Nicklaus Signature course.
In golf-adjacent Myrtle Beach news, Tiger Woods will bring his putting-centric "golfertainment" concept PopStroke to town soon. Per longtime Myrtle Beach golf beat journalist Alan Blondin for On The Green Magazine, the new location will be situated at the area's Broadway at the Beach shopping, dining and entertainment complex and will open sometime in 2023, not far from Myrtle Beach's Topgolf location.

PAWLEYS ISLAND — Town Council moved Feb. 13 to retain Columbia-based Coastal Science and Engineering for the next three years to monitor the town’s beaches following a 2020 beach renourishment project.
The town retained CSE for post-project monitoring in 2021 and 2022 as well. The permit requires the town to have its beaches monitored for erosion and the project’s effectiveness for five years after the start, Town Administrator Daniel Newquist said.
The work in the $116,870 contract includes surveys of the beach and inshore sands that received renourishment, plus aerial photography and annual reports.
“It’s a very useful report, truthfully,” Newquist said of CSE’s annual reports on beach conditions. “They’ve been very helpful in assisting the town with post-storm documentation that we can utilize for (Federal Emergency Management Agency) purposes and such. It’s kind of, I think, a logical contract for us to maintain.”
The proposal Town Council members considered on Feb. 13 includes an add-on task: a post-storm survey after the damage from Hurricane Ian in late September.
CSE’s 2022 annual report drew from an August survey, prior to Hurricane Ian’s landfall near Georgetown. The report contains a brief section on Ian near its end, and CSE assessed the beach in the days following the storm.
CSE Vice President Steven Traynum submitted a report on Ian’s damage to the Pawleys Island beach on Oct. 6. Traynum’s report found that the renourishment project “served its purpose” in protecting the island from sustaining even worse damage than it did during Ian.
“Without a project, CSE believes many homes along the south end would have been severely damaged or collapsed, damage to the road surface of Springs Ave(nue) may have been severe, and damage would have been much greater along all areas of the island,” Traynum wrote.
Newquist said the timing of the 2022 survey work was “critical” for analysis of the beach post-Ian.
“We need to kind of prepare for the next renourishment and whether that needs to occur sooner rather than later,” Newquist said. “Their survey work will really dictate what kind of outlook we have.”
Newquist said it is still too early to tell whether renourishment will need to happen sooner than expected because of Ian. He noted that emergency renourishment was not recommended by CSE.
Sand fencing and vegetation installed after the renourishment project saw damage during Hurricane Ian, according to CSE’s 2022 report. However, it also states that storm water levels did not top the crests of the renourished sand dunes.

Spanning more than 16,500 square meters, the hotel will undergo a complete conservative restoration and reimagining. Opened in 1850, the Hotel Grande Bretagne fell into disuse at the end of the last century and was later acquired by the Galbusera family.
HILTON GARDEN INN GROWS IN APAC: Hilton Garden Inn, the upscale brand by Hilton, has opened Hilton Garden Inn Beijing Haidian Daoxiang Lake, its 50th hotel in Greater China. The opening also marks Hilton Garden Inn’s first hotel in Beijing. Hilton Garden Inn debuted in Greater China in 2014, welcomed 900,000 guests in 2022 and plans to triple its footprint in the region in the coming years. The brand is looking towards Asia to fuel its growth as pent-up travel demand continues to drive post-COVID recovery in Asia Pacific, with the expanding middle-class likely to be more price-cautious and value driven. The prototype, lean operating model and kit-of-parts approach of the brand aim to make it adaptable for emerging and established destinations, as well as city and resort settings. The brand expanded into newer markets and gateway cities in South Korea, Japan, Australia and Thailand this year, with plans to open more than 20 hotels across Asia Pacific. Hilton Garden Inn’s global portfolio now includes over 970 hotels in 57 countries. The brand has 65 operational properties in Asia and more than 100 in the pipeline.
HI EXPRESS ORANGE COUNTY SELLS FOR $29.5M: Heritage Hotel Group has acquired the 161-key Holiday Inn Express & Suites Orange County — Santa Ana in Orange County, Calif., for a reported $29.5 million. The seller was Scottsdale, Ariz.-based Glacier House Hotels. The 10-story hotel opened in 2018. Berkadia Hotels & Hospitality led the deal, which closed on February 23, on behalf of the seller.
THE KINNEY SLO REBRANDS: The Kinney SLO in California has completed its transformation into The Wayfarer San Luis Obispo. This is the second Wayfarer hotel concept, following the opening of one in Los Angeles, Calif., in 2020. The hotel features 100 college-themed rooms, a newly rebranded restaurant and bar, a pool, a fitness center and 2,000 square feet of event space.
