At AXIS Chiropractic & Occupational Health, we know how disruptive neck pain can be—not only to your daily routine, but also to your work performance, posture, and long-term health. Whether you’ve been battling stiffness from long hours at a desk or recovering from an injury, neck pain doesn’t just go away on its own. That’s why we proudly offer SoftWave Therapy, a leading-edge, non-invasive treatment that promotes true healing at the cellular level.
The Reality of Neck Pain in Today’s World
Neck pain is more common than ever. Between sedentary lifestyles, tech overuse, and work-related strain, your cervical spine often bears the brunt of your daily stress. Pain can develop gradually or hit suddenly—and if it’s left untreated, it may lead to more serious issues like chronic inflammation, nerve impingement, tension headaches, or reduced mobility.
What Is SoftWave Therapy?
SoftWave Therapy is a form of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) that uses focused acoustic waves to stimulate tissue regeneration, improve blood flow, and reduce inflammation. It’s completely non-invasive and doesn’t require medication or downtime. At AXIS Chiropractic & Occupational Health, we integrate this treatment into holistic care plans designed to restore function and reduce reliance on pharmaceuticals or surgery.
How SoftWave Helps with Neck Pain
The neck is home to delicate muscles, nerves, and vertebrae. When any part becomes inflamed or injured, the result can be painful and limiting. SoftWave Therapy works by stimulating your body’s own healing processes, targeting the root cause—not just the symptoms.
Patients often report:
Noticeable reduction in neck stiffness and soreness
Fewer tension headaches and radiating pain
Better posture and movement without discomfort
Improved function in the workplace and everyday life
Long-term relief without medication or injections
What to Expect from Your Sessions
SoftWave sessions at AXIS typically last 10 to 15 minutes. Using a handheld device, we deliver acoustic pulses to the painful areas of the neck. While the sensation can be mildly uncomfortable for some, it’s generally well tolerated—and there’s no recovery time needed afterward. Many of our patients notice relief within just a few visits.
Conditions We Address with SoftWave
SoftWave Therapy is effective for a wide range of neck-related conditions, including:
Chronic or acute neck pain
Herniated or bulging cervical discs
Postural strain (often from computer or phone use)
Muscle tension and spasms
Nerve impingement or pinched nerves
You can learn more about these conditions and how SoftWave addresses them by visiting the Neck Pain Conditions page.

I had to do my DOT renewnal PHYSICAL I have to say this place was a little difficult to find, and its on the service road of 635 E exit Hillcrest. It's before you get to the light at Hillcrest in the light brown buildings. Dr. B. Mays was so nice, down to earth, and has a great sense of professionalism. He didn't take long, and he was very polite in making sure I did all of the requirements effectively. I would recommend him for DOT PHYSICAL, CHIROPRACTOR, or any injury concerns.<br>His office was well decorated, clean, and has a very welcoming feel to it.
Great experience, had my DOT visit and he was able to handle a rush hour very efficiently. Was able to get back to work in time for my 2nd shift. Will definitely recommend his services.

Great experience. I've been going to Axis for the SoftWave treatments, and it has helped me so much. I was having a problem with pain in my hip, and after the first treatment the pain was reduced. Now, I go in for tune ups wherever I feel pain.
Dr. Mays the first black chiropractor to take care of all them aches and pain, the man is definitely on top of it. He’s very professional, on a scale 1-10 he got my 10.
I’ve been experiencing lower back issues in the coccyx area. I’ve had 2 adjustments from Dr. Mayes and feel marvelous!!!!!!<br><br>Range of motion has significantly increased and discomfort has significantly decreased.<br><br>I feel amazing!!!!!!!<br><br>Thank you soooo much!!!<br><br>See you next week!<br><br>Carla Harper
My experience has been unbelievably great! When I first came to see Dr May's<br>I could barely walk or put any pressure on my knee. After a month 8 sessions my knee feels great! I went dancing for the first time in about six months! And had no issues. I would recommend this treatment to anyone experiencing joint pain!
My left foot plantar fasciitis is almost resolved (after three treatments) from the soft wave therapy rendered by Dr Mays. He has been very caring, compassionate, and professional while working with me to restore function to my left foot.
Dr. Mays used Soft Wave treatments on my wrist and shoulder and I have regained full use of my shoulder and my wrist is well on the way to being healed. The treatments I have received are making my life so much better!
I’ve been seeing axis chiropractic for Softwave treatments on my wrist and I’ve had excellent results. The treatments have been very effective, so much, that I won’t be needing surgery to fix my wrist instability. Prices for Softwave at this location are hard to beat!
I have been in the trucking since 2012 and every 2 years I have to get my DOT physical. Dr. Mays got me in quick and was very professional. It’s good to have a Dr. that can take care of your physical and know about trucking.
Came here today and I must say I am absolutely impressed! I was in and out very quickly, the dr was very frien, funny and professional! Would recommend to everyone!!!
It was a very pleasant and calming experience I got the result I was looking for. The Dr. was very informative and patient. The office could do with a bit of tidying though :)
Dr. Mays was fantastic! Very prompt and offers a wide variety of specialized tests from drug screening to respiratory fit test. Oh and he’s a chiropractor! Highly recommend his services
Been seeing Dr Mays for about 4 yrs now for my DOT physicals and employee drug tests. By far best in DFW. Very professional and always gets me in and out of his office in no time at all. Highly recommend to everyone I know.
I had an amazing adjustment with Dr. Mays today and I’m walking on a cloud. I’m currently 4 months pregnant and started waddling, with a stiff and sore back and neck due to the changes quickly happening to my body. He snapped, crackled and popped me right back into shape! I can’t wait until my next one!
Excellent service. Same day service. Quick, fast and thorough. I'll be recommending my company drivers come see Dr. Bryant Mays in the future for all our needs.
