Mercy Family Health launches chronic pain management combining StemWave shockwave therapy and Chi walking. The approach targets over 50 million Americans with chronic pain, offering regenerative treatment as an alternative to medication dependency.
— Mercy Family Health has launched a chronic pain management approach that integrates StemWave shockwave therapy with Chi walking, combining regenerative treatment and mindful movement into a unified restorative protocol. The strategy addresses the limitations of conventional pain management by offering patients an alternative to long-term medication dependency and temporary symptom relief, aligning with the clinic’s commitment to reversing chronic disease through lifestyle intervention and natural therapies developed over more than four decades of practice.

More than 50 million Americans experienced chronic pain in 2023, many of whom face limited options beyond pharmaceutical management or invasive procedures that mask symptoms rather than restore function. Mercy Family Health’s vision to reverse chronic disease through lifestyle choices responds to growing demand for non-pharmaceutical interventions that address root causes, positioning StemWave and Chi walking as evidence-based pillars of a restorative care model.
StemWave uses acoustic waves to stimulate the body’s natural healing response, triggering cellular activity that increases circulation, promotes collagen production, and attracts the patient’s own stem cells to injured tissue without injection or harvesting. A study published in the Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research highlights the therapy’s effectiveness in accelerating tendon injury recovery, while clinical data demonstrate a success rate of up to 98% at one year for chronic plantar fasciitis with radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy, underscoring its regenerative rather than palliative mechanism.
Chi walking complements this regenerative approach by combining Tai Chi, Core Strength Balance,, and biomechanical principles to reduce impact on the body during daily movement. A 2021 review of 16 studies found evidence of low-to-moderate strength that Tai Chi, a practice similar to Chi walking, benefits knee osteoarthritis management. Participants experienced improvements in pain, stiffness, physical function, balance, and psychological health.
Mercy Family Health differentiates itself by offering wholistic, restorative, and natural treatments aimed at reversing chronic disease rather than managing symptoms indefinitely. The integration of StemWave and Chi walking reflects this philosophy, addressing tissue regeneration, inflammation reduction, and lifestyle modification within a single protocol. Dr. Stanley Lang, a board-certified family physician with more than 40 years of experience, personally recovered from a 15-year-old neck injury using the therapy, reinforcing the clinic’s confidence in its clinical application.
The combined strategy targets arthritic joint pain, chronic tendinopathies, myofascial pain, and discomfort following joint replacement. Approximately 85 to 90 percent of people experience a good to very good response to pain with StemWave therapy, depending on the condition. Mercy Family Health positions the protocol as an alternative to repeated injections, ongoing medication, or surgery, offering an introductory session at reduced cost to help patients evaluate benefit before committing to a full treatment series.
Mercy Family Health offers StemWave therapy as a dedicated pain management service separate from its family practice membership, which operates as a membership model. The therapy operates on a cash basis, with introductory sessions designed to determine candidacy before patients proceed with a full protocol. Patients interested in the chronic pain strategy can contact the clinic at 814-583-7792 or visit the website to schedule an initial consultation.
Dr. Stanley Lang and Sheri Lang, CRNP, pioneered the wholistic health model beginning in 1981, integrating spiritual, emotional, and physical health into family practice. Their adoption of StemWave and Chi walking exemplifies a broader shift in healthcare away from pharmaceutical-dependent, cookbook medicine toward personalized, regenerative approaches. Although shockwave therapy has been in clinical use for over two decades with numerous published papers, it remains underutilized due to insurance barriers. Mercy Family Health’s commitment to evidence-based restorative care provides a model for individualized treatment.
Individuals interested in this chronic pain strategy should contact Mercy Family Health by phone at 814-583-7792 or visit https://www.americastruehealth.com/ to schedule an initial consultation or introductory session.
