What Is Cold Laser Therapy?
At Back Pain, Neck Pain & Headache Relief Center of Pleasanton, we are continually looking out for the latest and most innovative techniques to help our patients find relief from aches and pains. One of these procedures is called Cold Laser Therapy, or low-level light therapy, which has successfully treated acute and chronic conditions for many years. Bodies that have endured chronic injury can reap various benefits such as pain reduction, improved muscle strength, and increased joint movement. Cold Laser Therapy can also be used right after a new injury has occurred to speed healing, restore any disrupted joint function, and stop further damage.
How Cold Laser Therapy Works?
Cold lasers involve using handheld wands, usually the size of a flashlight, that use specific wavelengths of light to accelerate cell regeneration. Our clinic's chiropractor will place the laser directly over the area of focus for a few minutes.
As the light energy reaches the targeted area, it can help eliminate pain and reduce swelling. It is highly effective for both treating both chronic pain and acute injuries. The visible red light releases frequencies to the treated area. This light can promote healing by increasing the cells' energy levels and improving communication between the cells.
We utilize Cold Laser Therapy to provide the best care for our patients and help our patients reach their goals. You can also combine Cold Laser Therapy with other treatments. If you're experiencing pain, we'd very much like to help you. Contact our chiropractic office in Pleasanton at the first sign of a problem! Let us help you enjoy life's activities to the fullest.
