Laser Therapy

Many people suffer from some type of ache or pain. In addition to traditional treatment Cold Laser Therapy can provide effective treatment of pain associated with carpal tunnel syndrome, frozen shoulder, neck pain and back pain.

Cold laser has been recommended by Doctors as a non-invasive way to treat pain and there are many new studies that illustrate its effectiveness in treating acute injuries such as sprains and strains. The idea of Cold Laser Therapy is similar to that of Ultrasound Therapy, but is believed to be less traumatic to the body and results in a quicker recovery time.

Therapeutic lasers supply energy to the body through the use of non-thermal photons of light. The body converts these photons to chemical energy, that can be used by the cells to accelerate the normal rate of tissue healing. Blood flow is increased, swelling is decreased and muscle elasticity is improved resulting in reducing pain.

Though the laser can touch the skin it is painless. It can take 3-5 sessions of 10-20 minute treatments before results are seen but many notice a difference after the first session.
