Cold Laser Therapy
If you are troubled by neck or back pain or you have inflammatory disorders like tendonitis, arthritis and sprains, we can help you with cold laser therapy here at Forsstrom Chiropractic Center, PC in Centennial, CO with cold laser therapy. Cold laser therapy has been used for the above conditions above as well as a number of other issues like muscle and joint pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, neck and shoulder injuries, and wound management.
How Cold Laser Therapy Works
During this therapy, our Centennial, CO chiropractor, Dr. Doug Forsstrom, uses specific light wavelengths to interact with your tissue and expedite the healing process. He uses a handheld device, typically no bigger than a flashlight, and places it directly over your affected area for 30 seconds to three minutes.
The length of time the device is used depends on the dose and area being treated. He emits non-thermal photons of light that pass through your layers of skin (epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous tissue) and penetrates around two to five centimeters under your skin.
Cold Laser Therapy Advantages
This is a non-invasive procedure that doesn't require a surgical incision or lengthy recovery time. You don't need any medications and there have been no reported serious side effects when performed correctly.
Call us at Forsstrom Chiropractic Center, PC at 303-770-5666 to learn more about cold laser therapy and to see if you are a good candidate for this procedure. During your initial consultation, Dr. Forsstrom sits down with you to discuss the procedure and what you can expect from it. He then plans your course of treatment.
