What is Laser Therapy?

How Does Laser Therapy Work?

The therapy uses light to promote healing by improving blood flow and restoring normal cell function as a means to speed up the body’s natural healing process. Laser is used in conjunction with other physiotherapy modalities such as spinal/joint mobilizations, muscle energy techniques, massage/trigger point therapy, postural education, and customized rehabilitative exercise programs.

What can Laser be used for?

  • Acute joint or muscle pain

These treatments generally take 5 to 10 minutes. Typically patients see results after 3 to 6 treatment sessions. Book your appointment with one of our specialists or visit our clinic today.
