Low Level Laser Therapy for Specific Symptoms and Conditions

Here at Raleigh Specific Chiropractic, we use Erchonia Low level laser which is a Class II laser. It has a total of 18 FDA clearances and has been approved since 2018. Laser is proven to be effective for chronic pain, inflammation, fibromyalgia, shoulder pain, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, TMJ, muscle sprains, post surgical healing, sports injuries, disc herniation, migraines, plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, sciatica, PCOS and bursitis.

Low Level Laser Therapy Benefits

Laser therapy aims to photo-bio stimulate chemically damaged cells via specific wavelengths of light. When cells are chemically damaged they stimulate the pain cycle. Laser excited the kinetic energy within cells by transmitting healing stimuli known as photons.

Laser therapy light can ignite the production of enzymes, stimulate mitochondria, increase vasodilatation and lymphatic drainage, ATP synthesis, and elevate collagen formation substances to prevent the formation of scar tissues. Simply stated, laser enables patients to get out of pain faster and heal at the same time.

With over 200 clinical studies and in excess of 2000 published articles on LLLT (low-leverl laser therapy), this innovative technology has a well documented research history. It is now being considered a therapy of choice for difficult pain management challenges such as fibromyalgia and myofascial pain.
