Laser Therapy Q & A

What is laser therapy?

Laser therapy is a lasting treatment that reduces pain in a safe and noninvasive way. Healing Rehab Physical Therapy SC uses a state-of-the-art cold laser system, which relies on a low level of controlled laser light to maximize your results without inflicting any damage to your skin. 

How does cold laser therapy work?

Cold laser therapy infuses injured tissue with photons, or controlled light energy. The photons trigger your body's natural injury response, ultimately increasing your cellular healing rate, boosting blood delivery to your damaged tissue, and reducing inflammation and swelling.  

One of the most interesting aspects of cold laser therapy is that the effects continue long after the end of your laser session. It takes just minutes for a cold laser therapy session, but your cellular reactions continue for many hours afterward.

What are the benefits of cold laser therapy?

Cold laser therapy offers a number of impressive advantages. The treatment is:

  • Painless 
  • Completely noninvasive - no incisions, no needles
  • Proven safe for use
  • Free of side effects

Another benefit of cold laser therapy is that it works well as part of a whole-body recovery plan. In fact, cold laser therapy is a big reason many injured individuals feel comfortable enough to start their physical therapy process sooner.  

What kind of conditions does laser therapy treat?

Cold laser therapy has a number of different applications, but it really excels in treating soft tissue damage and injuries, such as:

  • Low back pain
  • Neck pain
  • Knee pain
  • Joint pain 
  • Sports injuries
  • Workplace injuries
  • Muscle strains
  • Sprains
  • Tendinitis

If you're dealing with acute or chronic pain, there's a good chance that cold laser therapy can be an enormously beneficial part of your physical therapy rehabilitation plan. 

How often will I need cold laser therapy?

Many people undergo cold laser therapy for about two to four days a week until they feel better. 

Usually, a series of 8-30 treatments can give you great results, particularly when it's part of a bodywide rehab regimen.
