Deep Tissue Laser therapy is a non-invasive technique to help reduce pain and inflammation. Laser Therapy accelerates your body’s own natural healing process by inducing a series of healing responses in your body through photo-bio-stimulation. It is effective in treating chronic conditions, acute conditions and post-surgical pain. Laser therapy can be safely used as an adjunct or replacement for pharmaceutical drugs.
Medical lasers work by flooding the tissue with photons, which energizes cells resulting in increased circulation to the injured area and ultimately pain reduction. Treatments last between 5 and 10 minutes depending on the condition being treated and must be administered directly to skin, as laser light cannot penetrate through layers of clothing. You will feel a soothing warmth as the therapy is administered that identifies the beginning of an 18-24 hour process of modulated cellular activity.
The laser is designed to allow the practitioner to physically manipulate the tissue while administering the treatment, resulting in laser-massage. This allows for light to penetrate deeper into tissues, due to its ability to displace tissue through laser-massage. Patients generally see results after 3 to 5 treatments. Your doctor will develop a treatment plan that is optimal for your condition.
This treatment is FDA cleared and adheres to strict ISO standards in order to provide you with the safest, non-invasive option and gives patients an alternative to drugs and surgery. At Schlenker Chiropractic, we use the most powerful Class IV laser on the market. Call us to schedule your first therapy appointment. Discounted packages are available.
