Continue reading to learn more about cold laser therapy and what it can treat.
What Is Cold Laser Therapy?
Cold laser therapy, or low-level laser therapy, either uses low-intensity lasers or LEDs to target painful areas in the body. This treatment emits low levels of light and does not generate heat, unlike conventional surgical lasers. Cold laser therapy can stimulate cellular function to promote healing and reduce inflammation without causing discomfort.
What Conditions Can Cold Laser Therapy Treat?
Chiropractors are increasingly incorporating cold laser therapy into their chiropractic care. Our chiropractor recognizes this treatment’s synergy with traditional chiropractic adjustments and combines the two methods in a treatment plan to help patients achieve optimal health and wellness. Doing so can help manage several conditions, including:
- Musculoskeletal pain: Our chiropractor can use cold laser therapy to treat chronic pain in the neck, back, shoulders, knees, and other joints.
- Arthritis: Cold laser therapy can help reduce pain and inflammation associated with arthritis in the knees, hands, and joints.
- Headaches and migraines: Cold laser therapy can reduce the frequency and severity of headaches and migraines.
- Carpal tunnel syndrome: This treatment can help ease pain and tingling associated with carpal tunnel syndrome by reducing inflammation and promoting nerve healing.
- Wound healing: Our chiropractor can use cold laser therapy to improve the healing of wounds, particularly chronic wounds that are slow to heal on their own.
The Benefits of Cold Laser Therapy
Patients seeking relief from chronic pain, inflammation, and multiple musculoskeletal conditions may find cold laser therapy to be a valuable addition to their treatment plans. This therapy can accelerate tissue repair, minimize pain sensitivity, and foster faster recovery. The non-invasive nature of cold laser therapy also makes it an appealing option for those exploring alternatives to more invasive procedures.
