Cold Laser

Cold Laser

what is cold laser treatment?

Cold laser therapy utilizes a narrow spectrum of red and near-infrared wavelength light to improve circulation, diminish pain, and reduce inflammation. Together, these photochemical benefits also accelerate tissue healing. This treatment is totally drug, pain, and surgery free and has been FDA approved for over a decade.

the types of injuries helped by cold laser treatment

Acute injuries (strains, sprains, and shoulder injuries)

Repetitive-use injuries (such as Carpal Tunnel)

Traumatic injuries

Chronic issues (such as frozen shoulder and Arthritis)

THE UNIQUE POWER OF COLD LASER THERAPY

Light cleanly passes through tissue barriers, allowing for this treatment to reach areas that would otherwise be inaccessible to practitioners. Through cold laser therapy, soft or hard tissues can be treated, including muscles, ligaments, and bones. Microcirculation is promoted through the introduction of controlled wavelengths, bringing about health benefits from the cellular level up. Laser light itself does not directly produce improvements; rather, it accelerates the natural recovery of tissues within the body.
