Meet Peter Holst, DC

After providing chiropractic care in Middletown, NY for the past 38 years, Dr Peter Holst recently moved to the Carlisle area with his wife Judith.

In addition to chiropractic, he has provided SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology in his NY office since 2021. Carlisle Pain Relief was established in November 2023 where he continues to provide SoftWave TRT for pain relief and improved function. 

The healing power of SoftWave involves reducing inflammation, improved blood flow and stem-cell activation. “The results are amazing! In my 38 years treating musculoskeletal injuries, I have not seen anything else create a healing response like SoftWave.

Carlisle Pain Relief utilizes SoftWave Therapy as an effective approach to pain relief using acoustic waves to stimulate your body’s natural processes for self-repair. It works when the soft latex dome-shaped tip of the applicator is touched to the affected area of the patient’s body. SoftWaves are created within the applicator head when an electrode is charged with electricity, creating a spark under the water. This spark creates a hot bubble of gas that expands into the surrounding water and produces the SoftWave that travels out of the applicator and into the area being treated.

The space is beautiful and peaceful! The staff couldn't be friendlier or more invested in the work they do! A must if you need to relax!!!

Everything from your particular health care needs to your schedule. Your upcoming appointments are alerted to text or email! ( Sorry, I'm getting older and reminders help a bit).

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.
