Laser Therapy

Laser therapy uses light therapy to promote tissue healing, lower inflammation at a cellular level.

Chiropractic laser therapy, also known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or cold laser therapy, is a non-invasive treatment modality used by chiropractors to reduce pain, inflammation, and promote tissue healing. It involves the use of low-level lasers or light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to deliver specific wavelengths of light energy to targeted areas of the body.

During a chiropractic laser therapy session, the chiropractor applies the handheld laser device directly to the skin over the affected area. The light energy penetrates the skin and is absorbed by cells within the body, where it stimulates cellular metabolism and promotes the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the energy source for cells. This can lead to various therapeutic effects, including:

1. Pain relief: Laser therapy has been shown to reduce pain by decreasing inflammation, blocking pain signals, and stimulating the release of endorphins, the body’s natural painkillers.

2. Reduction of inflammation: Laser therapy can help to decrease swelling and inflammation by improving lymphatic drainage and reducing the production of inflammatory mediators.

3. Accelerated tissue repair: The increased production of ATP and other cellular processes stimulated by laser therapy can promote tissue regeneration and repair, speeding up the healing process for injuries and wounds.

Chiropractic laser therapy is often used to treat a variety of musculoskeletal conditions, including:

– Back pain

– Neck pain

– Joint pain

– Muscle strains and sprains

– Tendonitis

– Arthritis

– Sports injuries

– Carpal tunnel syndrome

Treatment sessions typically last between 5 to 20 minutes, depending on the condition being treated and the specific parameters of the laser device. Multiple sessions may be required to achieve optimal results, and the effects of laser therapy are cumulative over time.

While chiropractic laser therapy is generally considered safe when performed by a qualified healthcare professional, it may not be suitable for everyone, including pregnant women and individuals with certain medical conditions or medications that increase sensitivity to light. As with any treatment modality, individuals considering chiropractic laser therapy should consult with a chiropractor or healthcare provider to determine if it is appropriate for their specific needs.
