Meet Dr. Roy Strickland

With over two decades of dedicated service as a chiropractic physician, my journey has been deeply rewarding, especially in facilitating natural healing processes for my patients. My extensive experience in traditional chiropractic care, decompression, nutrition, and advanced treatments like laser therapy has been incredibly fulfilling. Yet, the introduction of Softwave therapy into our practice has marked a paradigm shift in how we approach pain and discomfort relief.

Softwave technology stands at the forefront of medical innovation, offering a breakthrough solution that I’ve found unparalleled in my 24+ years in the field. This technology has transformed the lives of countless individuals, offering relief from a wide spectrum of conditions, and it could do the same for you—turning your story into our next celebrated success.

Upon your first visit, you will be provided with a comprehensive SoftWave consultation and evaluation. This includes any necessary imaging to ensure a fully informed diagnosis. Following this, we’ll share a detailed outline of your treatment options, empowering you to make informed decisions about your health journey.

Our commitment to non-surgical and drug-free treatments underscores our belief in the body’s innate ability to heal. Softwave therapy is at the heart of this belief, proven to reduce pain and inflammation while promoting the regeneration of damaged tissues by harnessing the power of endogenous stem cells.

This revolutionary treatment is adept at addressing conditions across a broad spectrum, from shoulder, knee, neck, and back pain to discomfort in the elbows, hips, wrists, hands, ankles, and feet. It is also remarkably effective in managing other chronic conditions.

Your health and well-being are our top priorities. We invite you to experience the difference Softwave therapy can make in your life. Join us on a journey towards pain-free living. We eagerly anticipate the opportunity to welcome you and share in your healing journey.

 

Better Life Chiropractic is a busy and energetic practice  rocking with lots of energy and movement. And because you are the most important component of the practice, we are committed to hiring upbeat and friendly staff members who make this a warm and inviting place for you to come, and to refer your friends and family. We do a lot of training on how to best serve our patients.

And the goal is always to be learning more and more about how to create and grow loyalty between our patient-doctor relationships. We hire doctors with great ethics. This is such a simple concept, but it makes a world of difference. And we believe in clinical excellence. We get together as a group twice weekly and do training, because it’s such a priority to us. We work hard to stay proficient in our techniques, and are constantly growing in our skills and education.

Dr Baxter had helped my kids and me. I could barely walk in there, I could hardly stand up. I couldn't sleep without my arms going numb. With the program he has set me on I'm doing 100% better.

Thank you BLC!! Y’all keep me on my feet and moving forward.

SoftWave FAQs

  • What results should I expect from SoftWave Therapy?

    If you are a candidate for treatment, SoftWave therapy can provide both immediate and long-lasting results. After one SoftWave session, patients typically experience a 20-50% reduction in pain and improvement in mobility, lasting from a few hours to several days. Some patients require multiple sessions before experiencing improvement.

    To determine if SoftWave is a suitable treatment for you, schedule a $69 New Patient Appointment, where you will receive one SoftWave treatment session, and the provider will assess whether further treatment is appropriate.

    Unlike pain medications and injections, SoftWave treatment seeks to activate the body’s natural healing process at the cellular level to deliver genuine and long-lasting results.

  • What is the SoftWave treatment process like?

    SoftWave is a fast and convenient non-invasive procedure that usually lasts 10-15 minutes, with no downtime required for recovery. First, ultrasound gel is applied, then the SoftWave device is gently placed to deliver shock waves to the injured area. Most patients feel a gentle tapping or pulsing sensation, while some patients may experience mild pain or discomfort. The use of anesthesia or numbing agents is not necessary. Effective communication with the provider during treatment can help identify treatment hotspots and track progress.
