Is Cold Laser Therapy Right for You? Explained By Your Kittanning Chiropractor

At Mills Chiropractic Center, we offer physiotherapies including cold laser therapy in Kittanning. Learn more about cold laser therapy to see if it can help you recover from your injuries or chronic pain. 

What is Cold Laser Therapy? 

Cold laser therapy uses a low-level laser beam to relieve injuries at the source. In cold laser treatments, we place a laser against your skin and hold it in place. The light from the laser beam penetrates the skin and goes deep into the cells that are injured. 

The laser beam actually promotes recovery by bringing fresh blood to the cells, which flushes out toxins and reduces inflammation. The laser further promotes healing by bringing oxygen and nutrients to the muscle, promoting the recovery process through nervous system stimulation and releasing endorphins for pain control. 

We can administer cold laser therapy in our office. The laser beam doesn't get hot. In fact, most patients do not feel anything as we administer treatment. You'll know treatment is working when pain and inflammation subside! 

Treatments last for approximately 15 minutes, but your body will continue to receive the benefits of this therapy long after the session concludes. 

Who Should Try Cold Laser Therapy in Kittanning? 

Cold laser therapy benefits a range of health conditions. Chronic pain, such as back pain, nerve pain, or arthritis pain, responds well to this physiotherapy. 

Acute pain from injuries or repetitive strain, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, also benefits from low-level laser therapy. We often use a cold laser to relieve pain caused by auto accidents or sports injuries. 

Since cold laser therapy is non-invasive, individuals of any age are welcome to give this therapy a try! Cold laser is absolutely safe for children and adults, including pregnant women and seniors.
