At Reboot U, we use SoftWave Therapy, a groundbreaking treatment that helps your body heal from the inside out. Unlike traditional shockwave devices, SoftWave uses a unique patented design to safely deliver energy deep into your tissues — jumpstarting the body’s natural healing process without surgery, drugs, or downtime.

SoftWave’s patented applicator uses a parabolic reflector to spread energy across a large treatment area — up to 7cm x 12cm at once. That’s much larger than other devices, meaning fewer sessions and better results.
When applied, the device triggers a cellular response that:
Increases blood flow
Encourages new blood vessel growth (angiogenesis)
Reduces inflammation
Activates your body’s own stem cells
Restores tissue elasticity
Stimulates natural growth factors
Fast healing & pain relief
Backed by research & trusted worldwide
Non-surgical, drug-free, and safe
Comfortable, quick sessions
Used by top medical centers and professional sports teams
SoftWave isn’t just innovative — it’s proven. With over 20 years of research, 100+ published studies, and adoption by leading universities and sports organizations, it continues to set the standard for non-invasive healing.
At Reboot U, we’re proud to bring this game-changing technology to our community, helping patients move better, feel better, and get back to the things they love.

SoftWave is trusted and FDA 510(k) cleared for:
Activating connective tissue
Healing chronic diabetic foot ulcers
Supporting recovery from acute second-degree burns
Temporarily improving blood flow
Providing temporary pain relief

"My initial pain level was 9-10 now 1-2"
"I am feeling night and day in comparison as I had been before visiting Dr. Mertz" - Craig




With pain and degeneration in my shoulder I am trying a variety of interventions - cortisone shot , physical therapy, pain pills , and Softwave to name a few - I believe all add some benefit but the Softwave is the most effective for increased range of motion and decreased pain . A godsend ! Thank you Dr Mertz and Tara



When I went to my first appointment at Re Boot I could barely walk. Through treatment I have become more flexible and able to move with more ease and stand longer.



This is the first time I have ever received relief from my chronic back pain. After the first treatment I slept 7 2/2 hours for the first time in years. Dr. Steve is the greatest. I highly recommend them for your better health.
