What is Cold Laser Therapy?

Cold laser therapy refers to a type of treatment designed to address musculoskeletal conditions and skin conditions. It uses a low level laser or infrared heat to encourage the body to heal from different types of injuries.

Since the laser does not create the burning sensation associated with other treatments, so health care professionals consider it as a "cold laser".  It penetrates the surface of the skin and underlying tissues, and encourages natural healing without taking unnecessary risks with your health or causing injuries to your skin.

Benefits of the Treatment Explained by Our Irvine Chiropractors

The advantages of the treatment in chiropractic care depends on your situation and goals. The common advantages associated with the therapy include:

  • Promoting the synthesis or growth of collagen in the skin and body
  • Improved blood circulation
  • Limiting the formation of deep muscular scar tissue, which allows individuals to retain their range of motion while an injury heals
  • Reduced inflammation, which helps with pain, swelling and redness

Using the therapy as part of a long-term solution allows individuals to address the underlying cause of the discomfort. At our clinic, we use cold lasers to help stabilize your cells and encourage natural healing through improved function and blood flow.

How Long is a Cold Laser Therapy Session?

Some treatments may only require two minutes of laser therapy while other sources of discomfort may require ten minutes of treatment. Most treatments take only a few minutes to start encouraging your body to heal.

The number of sessions required for the treatment process depends on your body and the severity of the underlying injury or condition.
