Piriformis Syndrome and SoftWave TRT: A New Hope for Sciatica Sufferers

Published November 13th, 2023 by Central Jersey Spine & Wellness

Addressing a Common Culprit Behind Sciatica

Piriformis Syndrome, often a misunderstood and misdiagnosed condition, can be a significant source of sciatica pain. Central Jersey Spine & Wellness, under the expert guidance of Dr. Gerard DeBernardis, is offering an innovative solution to this problem. Located at 4251 US Highway 9, Freehold, NJ 07728, the clinic utilizes SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Therapy (TRT), providing a groundbreaking approach to effectively treat Piriformis Syndrome.

Understanding Piriformis Syndrome

Piriformis Syndrome occurs when the piriformis muscle, located in the buttock region near the top of the hip joint, spasms and causes pain. This muscle is crucial for lower body movement as it stabilizes the hip joint and lifts and rotates the thigh away from the body.

Causes of Piriformis Syndrome

  • Muscle Spasms: Can be triggered by injury or overuse.
  • Anatomical Variations: In some individuals, the sciatic nerve runs through the piriformis muscle, making it more susceptible to irritation.
  • Prolonged Sitting: A sedentary lifestyle or long periods of sitting can exacerbate the condition.
  • Trauma: Accidents or falls can lead to inflammation of the muscle and irritate the sciatic nerve.

Symptoms of Piriformis Syndrome

  • Pain in the Buttock: Often the most noticeable symptom, which can worsen with prolonged sitting or intense activity.
  • Radiating Pain Down the Leg: Similar to sciatica, the pain can extend down the back of the leg.
  • Numbness and Tingling: These sensations may be felt in the buttocks and along the path of the sciatic nerve.
  • Difficulty Sitting: Discomfort increases with prolonged periods of sitting.

SoftWave TRT: A Non-Invasive Approach to Piriformis Syndrome

SoftWave TRT stands as a non-surgical, drug-free alternative for treating Piriformis Syndrome. It utilizes electrohydraulic supersonic acoustic waves to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes.

How SoftWave TRT Works

  1. Reduces Muscle Spasms and Inflammation: The therapy targets the piriformis muscle, helping to alleviate spasms and reduce inflammation that irritates the sciatic nerve.
  2. Promotes Healing: SoftWave TRT enhances blood flow to the affected area, accelerating the healing process.
  3. Alleviates Pain: By addressing the root cause of Piriformis Syndrome, the therapy provides significant pain relief.
  4. Stimulates Tissue Regeneration: The therapy activates the body's stem cells, promoting the regeneration of healthy tissue.

The Superiority of SoftWave TRT Over Conventional Treatments

Holistic and Long-Term Solution

Unlike conventional treatments that focus on symptomatic relief, SoftWave TRT offers a more holistic approach, targeting the underlying cause of Piriformis Syndrome for long-term relief.

Non-Invasive and Safe

SoftWave Therapy is non-invasive and devoid of the side effects and risks associated with surgical interventions and prolonged medication use.

Effective for Complex Cases

Even in cases where the sciatic nerve runs through the piriformis muscle, SoftWave TRT can effectively reduce irritation and alleviate pain.
