Most people with ongoing knee pain have already been offered the same three options: cortisone or gel injections, a prescription to dull the pain, or a conversation about surgery. Each of those manages the symptom. None of them asks the body to actually heal the tissue that hurts. That gap is exactly where Gate City Health focuses its knee pain care, and it is why patients from across Greensboro come to the office after being told injections or a knee replacement were their only path forward.
The centerpiece of that care is SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Therapy, an FDA-cleared acoustic wave technology. During a session, a handheld applicator delivers broad-focused sound waves into the painful area of the knee. Those waves are designed to stimulate the body's own repair response in the treated tissue, increasing blood flow and activating the natural healing processes that chronic, degenerated tissue has stopped mounting on its own. There are no needles, no drugs, and no incisions, and a session takes only minutes. Most patients describe the sensation as intense but very tolerable, and there is no downtime afterward.
SoftWave is a fit for the knee problems that most often get pushed toward injections: arthritis-related pain and stiffness, patellar tendon irritation, old sports injuries that never fully resolved, and the deep ache of worn cartilage that gets described as "bone on bone." It is also an option for people who simply cannot keep taking anti-inflammatories or who want to avoid the cycle of repeat cortisone shots, which can further weaken tissue over time.
What makes knee care at Gate City Health different from a standalone shockwave clinic is the structural exam that comes with it. The knee sits in the middle of a chain that runs from the feet through the pelvis and spine, and a knee that is chronically overloaded on one side is often compensating for an alignment problem somewhere else. Dr. Preston Dantoni, D.C. and the team begin with a consultation, movement assessment, and digital X-ray screening when indicated, so the plan can address both the painful tissue and the mechanics that keep overloading it. Many knee plans pair SoftWave sessions with targeted adjustments and therapeutic exercise so the relief holds.
You can hear a real Gate City Health knee patient describe his results on the treatment videos page, where Greg shares his knee pain story in his own words. Every knee plan starts the same way his did: an honest evaluation to find out whether this care is actually a fit for your knee. Gate City Health's office at 2953 Battleground Ave. serves Greensboro and the surrounding Triad. Call (336) 763-9878 to schedule your knee evaluation.
Common symptoms
Why patients choose this care
No injections, no medications, no surgery: SoftWave is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive acoustic wave therapy that asks the knee to heal rather than masking the pain.
Sessions take minutes with zero downtime, so you walk out and go straight back to your day, no recovery window and no driving restrictions.
The whole chain gets examined, not just the knee: alignment, gait, and structure are evaluated so the mechanical overload that wore the knee down gets corrected too.

Dr. Preston Dantoni, D.C.
Dr. Preston Dantoni, D.C. and the team start with a consultation, movement assessment, and digital X-ray screening when indicated, then build a plan that combines SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Therapy with structural correction and therapeutic exercise, so the knee is treated as part of the whole kinetic chain rather than in isolation.
What to expect at your first visit
Consultation: your knee history, what you have been told, and what you have already tried, including injections or surgical consults.
Structural exam: movement assessment and on-site digital X-ray screening when indicated, looking at the knee and the alignment chain that loads it.
Report of findings: the doctor tells you honestly whether your knee is a candidate for SoftWave and structural care, and lays out the exact plan before care begins.
