Laser Therapy

Laser therapy delivers specific red and near infrared wavelengths of laser light to induce a therapeutic effect within the body. During each treatment, laser energy increases circulation, drawing water, oxygen and nutrients to the damaged area. This creates an optimal healing environment that reduces inflammation, swelling, muscle spasms, stiffness and pain.

Laser therapy can help with:

Tendinopathies, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, ligament sprains, muscle strains, repetitive stress injuries, plantar fasciitis, rheumatoid arthritis, shoulder and knee pain, post-traumatic injury, sports injury, auto and work injuries.

Does it hurt? What does a treatment feel like?

There is little or no sensation during treatment. Occasionally, the patient feels mild, soothing warmth or tingling sensations.

How often should a patient receive laser therapy?

Acute conditions may be treated daily.

How much laser therapy does it take?

This depends on the nature of the condition being treated. Anywhere between 6-12 sessions may be required.

How long before results are felt?

Each treatment is cumulative and dependent and results are often felt after 3-4 sessions.

Laser therapy is a technique that is safe for all ages of children, from infants to teenagers. The method is very gentle, yet extremely effective.
