At St. Joseph Chiropractic, our team is committed to alleviating symptoms and correcting the underlying causes of dysfunction for all our patients. One technique we're proud to offer to is cold laser therapy.
1. How does cold laser therapy work? Cold laser therapy uses a low frequency laser beam to elicit a cascade of healing changes within a target treatment area. Specifically, light photons from the laser beam penetrate soft tissue and stimulate cellular metabolism, regeneration, and repair. This "photobiomodulation" improves circulation, reduces inflammation, relieves pain, and accelerates tissue healing.
2. What happens during a cold laser treatment session? During a cold laser therapy session, you're sitting or lying in a comfortable position while your chiropractor directs the light over the target treatment area. Most patients feel nothing, while some report a mild tingling sensation.
3. Who can benefit from cold laser therapy? People from all walks of life--from top level athletes to working parents--have experienced the beneficial effects of cold laser therapy. Specific ailments and injuries that have responded positively to cold laser therapy include:
4. Is cold laser therapy safe? Yes. This treatment has no side effects, and its healing capabilities are maximized when used with other chiropractic techniques, including spinal adjustment, corrective exercise, and soft tissue massage.
5. Does cold laser therapy actually work? Yes! Thousands of studies and decades of our own clinical experience show that cold laser therapy is a safe, non-invasive, and effective treatment for a variety of physical disorders.
