Few treatment options seem to be available for people who suffer from chronic pain, arthritis, neuropathy, and lingering injuries. Chiropractic care is one of the best ways to treat chronic pain, and cold laser therapy is one of the best options to consider. If you are looking for cold laser therapy, our chiropractors in Jonesboro, GA can help. Our team at Southmetro Chiropractic Center would like to look at cold laser therapy.
What Is Cold Laser Therapy?
Cold laser therapy uses low-level lasers to amplify light and deliver it in a beam to an area of the musculoskeletal system. Laser therapy is comfortable and soothing, requiring no downtime as it reaches into the tissues to increase cellular production. The beams of light also encourage blood to circulate in the body, and more oxygen and nutrients will work their way to the injured area. Your body will heal more quickly after a session with the chiropractor.
What Injuries Does Cold Laser Therapy Treat?
Cold laser therapy treats a variety of injuries and conditions, including tendonitis, fibromyalgia, back pain, neck pain, knee pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, and acute injuries such as fractures. Cold laser therapy can even treat joint pain caused by conditions like arthritis. Even if your condition is not on this list, it is important to speak with a chiropractor about your symptoms.
What To Expect
During your therapy session, you will feel a sense of warmth. You should feel comfortable during the procedure, and you will not feel pain. The session may last just a few minutes, and you will be able to return to your daily routine right away.
You may require several treatment sessions to see the results you are looking for. You can benefit from other chiropractic treatment options between the sessions. For example, you may benefit from corrective exercise, chiropractic adjustments, myofascial release, and trigger point therapy as well. Your chiropractor will address your symptoms in total, to make sure your injury heals safely.
