Burrrr, Cold Laser

Cold laser therapy is applied with a small handheld device directly on the patient’s skin. The laser emits a light energy at a frequency so that it penetrates the skin between 2 to 5 cm deep. The light energy is absorbed at a cellular level.

The cells that are stimulated lessen inflammation and stimulate restoration of damaged tissue.

The patients at Coastal Integrative Healthcare describe the procedure as painless and there is typically no heat or cold felt during the procedure. Each treatment will typically last 7-15 minutes.

Laser therapy has been shown to reduce pain, inflammation, edema, swelling, and increasing intra cellular metabolism.

Many people prefer cold laser therapy because the treatment is painless, easy to apply, and doesn’t have any side effects that may be experienced from more invasive procedures like surgery or pain medications.

Cold laser therapy has been shown to be effective in treating a variety of conditions including:

Carpal Tunnel
Knee Pain and Osteoarthritis
Spinal Pain
Tendonitis
Elbow pain from tendonitis
Peripheral Neuropathy
Shoulder Pain and Rotator Cuff Injury
