Low-Level Laser Therapy

Low-level LASER THERAPY

Low level laser therapy (LLLT) has many names (cold laser therapy, low power laser therapy, etc.) and is used for a multitude of purposes.

Although the full underlying mechanisms of LLLT are still unclear, current research suggests that the benefits people experience during LLLT are from a photochemical reaction occurring in the body as the light comes in contact with the skin. When certain wavelengths of light hit the skin, our cells are able to convert that light energy into chemical energy.

This results in a cascade of biochemical reactions that can reduce inflammation, decrease pain, and increase overall cellular energy.

LLLT has been shown to be effective in treating common conditions such as: low back pain, plantar fasciitis, neck and shoulder pain, knee pain, and more.

For some, these lasers and our protocols can be an absolute game changer. Along with chiropractic care, they can help tap into a whole new level of healing and thriving!

At ICE, we utilize 5 different Erchonia lasers: the handheld XLR8, EVRL, and GVL along with the more powerful and dynamic FX405. We also use the Zerona for metabolic reset and non-invasive body contouring programs. These lasers are all FDA-approved and are able to produce therapeutic effects without generating heat during the procedure. Each laser has its own unique properties but one thing they all have in common is the ability to reduce inflammation.

Our low-level lasers are generally used as a post-adjustment enhancement, however we also provide separate treatments with longer exposure times. These individualized 20 minute sessions are paired with different healing modalities (cupping, vibration percussion, IASTM, exercises, and stretching) making them ideal for acute and chronic injuries.
