Cold Laser Therapy

If you suffer from a variety of acute and chronic conditions, Dr. Doug Forsstrom at Forsstrom Chiropractic may recommend cold laser therapy as a way to treat the problem. This type of therapy allows the body to naturally heal itself by utilizing a combination of electric stimulation and cold laser technology. The goal of cold laser therapy is to deliver light energy units from red and infrared laser radiation, called photons, to damaged cells.

Cold laser therapy is a treatment that utilizes specific wavelengths of light to interact with tissue and is thought to help accelerate the healing process. In addition to simple back and neck pain, cold laser therapy has been utilized for a number of inflammatory conditions such as arthritis, tendonitis, and sprains. This is because cold laser therapy can stimulate all cell types including muscle, ligament, cartilage, nerves, etc.
