Advanced SoftShot Technology with the Zimmer enPuls® 2.0
Are you dealing with persistent heel pain, tennis elbow, shoulder pain, or an injury that simply isn't improving?
At Benefit Chiropractic & Wellness Clinic, we use Shockwave Therapy with the Zimmer enPuls® 2.0 SoftShot system to help stimulate the body's natural healing response in chronic tendon, muscle, and soft tissue injuries. This non-invasive treatment can be an effective option when pain has persisted despite rest, stretching, massage therapy, or other conservative treatments.
For over 20 years, our team has helped patients in Langley return to work, sport, and daily activities through evidence-informed conservative care. Shockwave Therapy is one of the tools we use to help accelerate recovery and improve function.
What Is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave Therapy uses high-frequency acoustic pressure waves that are delivered to injured tissues through the skin. These pressure waves create a mechanical stimulus that encourages circulation, tissue regeneration, and the body's natural healing processes.
At our clinic, we use the Zimmer enPuls® 2.0 SoftShot system, which is designed to deliver treatment comfortably while effectively targeting injured muscles, tendons, and connective tissues.
Many patients describe the sensation as a rapid tapping feeling over the treatment area.
Conditions Commonly Treated
Shockwave Therapy may be beneficial for a variety of chronic musculoskeletal conditions, including:
- Plantar fasciitis and chronic heel pain
- Achilles tendinopathy
- Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis)
- Golfer's elbow (medial epicondylitis)

- Rotator cuff tendinopathy

If you're unsure whether your condition is appropriate for Shockwave Therapy, our practitioners can assess your injury and discuss the treatment options available.
How Shockwave Therapy Works
Chronic injuries often occur when tissues fail to progress through the normal healing process. Shockwave Therapy delivers controlled mechanical stimulation to the affected area, helping to encourage tissue repair and improve local circulation.
Potential benefits may include:
- Reduced pain
- Improved mobility and function
- Increased blood flow
- Stimulation of tissue healing
- Reduced muscle tension and trigger point activity
Shockwave Therapy is often combined with chiropractic adjustments, exercise rehabilitation and other treatments to help achieve the best possible outcomes.
What To Expect During Treatment
Your appointment begins with an assessment to determine whether Shockwave Therapy is appropriate for your condition.
A treatment gel is applied to the skin, and the Zimmer enPuls® applicator is moved over the affected area while acoustic pressure waves are delivered to the tissue.
Most treatments take approximately 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the condition being treated.
Following treatment, patients can typically return to their normal daily activities immediately.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
The number of treatments required varies depending on the condition, its severity, and how long symptoms have been present.
Many patients undergo a series of treatments spaced approximately one week apart. Your practitioner will discuss a personalized treatment plan based on your specific injury and goals.
