Cold Laser Therapy

A non-invasive, drug-free approach to pain relief and healing

What is Cold Laser Therapy?

Cold Laser Therapy, also called Laser Therapy, or Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), is an advanced treatment that utilizes specific wavelengths of light to penetrate deep into the tissues of the body. This gentle and painless treatment stimulates cellular activity, promotes tissue repair, and reduces inflammation, helping to alleviate pain.

It can be used on patients who suffer from a variety of acute and chronic conditions in order to help eliminate pain and  swelling, reduce spasms and increase functionality.

What Are the Benefits of Laser Therapy?

• Pain Relief: Whether you’re suffering from chronic pain, acute injuries, or musculoskeletal conditions, Laser Therapy can provide effective pain relief by targeting the underlying causes of discomfort.
• Accelerated Healing: By enhancing cellular metabolism and increasing circulation, laser therapy speeds up the body’s natural healing mechanisms, allowing for faster recovery from injuries, surgeries, and other health issues.
• Reduced Inflammation: Inflammation is a common contributor to pain and tissue damage. Laser Therapy helps to reduce inflammation at the cellular level, leading to decreased swelling and improved comfort.
• Non-Invasive and Safe: Unlike surgical procedures or pharmaceutical interventions, Laser Therapy is non-invasive, painless, and free of side effects. It’s suitable for patients of all ages and can be used alongside other chiropractic treatments.

What Are Some Examples of Conditions Treated with Laser Therapy?

• Muscle Strains and Sprains
• Joint Pain (e.g., Arthritis, Tendonitis)
• Back and Neck Pain
• Sports Injuries
• Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
• Fibromyalgia
• Plantar Fasciitis
• And More

What Can I Expect During a Laser Therapy Session?

At Left Hand Chiropractic, we often utilize Laser Therapy after an adjustment to help aid the healing process. Once your adjustment is finished, you will be led from the doctor’s treatment room to our Therapy Room down the hall.

To help protect eyes from the light of the laser, the doctor will have everyone in the room wear a pair of protective sunglasses.  Laser Therapy needs to be performed on bare skin, not through clothing. Once the skin over the injury is uncovered, the doctor will use a wand and lightly glide it over the area of injury for 2-3 minutes.  Most patients find the procedure very comfortable and sense very little to no discomfort from the laser.
