Laser Therapy
How does it work?
Low level laser light is absorbed through you skin and into your mitochondria – the powerhouse of your cells. Similar too how sunlight helps your body product vitamin D, the laser light stimulates the mitochondria, boosting ATP production, the primary energy source for all cells. This increase in ATP activates cell recovery processes, reduces inflammation, and restores normal cell function.
Benefits
Laser therapy, by stimulating both the nervous system and the site of tissue injury, has shown benefits for the following health conditions:
Anti-inflammation
Pain relief
Accelerated tissue repair and cell growth
Improved blood circulation.
Reduced scar tissue formation
Improved nerve function
Immune enhancement
Faster wound healing
Increased metabolic activity
Low-level laser therapy has been FDA-cleared for treating many medical conditions, offering benefits without side effects, such as:
Chronic non-healing wounds
Chronic joint pain
Muscle strains and tears
Degernative conditions
Chronic neck & shoulder pain
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Post surgical pain
Tendon and ligament injuries
Bone fractures
Plantar Fasciitis
Backed by science
Laser therapy has been studied extensively starting in the early 1960’s, generating over 10,000+ medical literatures and 1,500 peer reviewed publications. Erchonia, a pioneer in laser therapy and rehabilitation, developed the first laser in the world to receive FD Clearance. They now hold FDA clearance for 21 different medical conditions, leading the industry in laser technology. This is the reason ICON Chiro exclusively uses Erchonia for our laser treatments.
