WHAT IS COLD LASER THERAPY?
[/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”transparent” up=”10″ down=”0″][vc_column_text]Cold Laser Therapy is a treatment whereby a cold laser is utilized to treat chronic and acute pain. Cold laser therapy is used for persons suffering from back and neck pain, musculoskeletal pain, joint pain associated with arthritis, fibromyalgia, tendonitis, bursitis, neuropathy, achilles tendon pain, migraine headaches, sprains and strains, carpal tunnel and other associated pains.[/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”transparent” up=”10″ down=”0″][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”18103″ img_size=”full” qode_css_animation=””][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]Cold laser therapy also treats conditions such as TMJ, reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD) and other inflammatory and scarring conditions.[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner][vc_separator type=”transparent” up=”10″ down=”0″][vc_column_text]Cold laser therapy is non-thermal and noninvasive. A combination of cold laser and electric stimulation, cold laser therapy is one of the most effective healing therapies in the medical community today. Completed in ten to twelve sessions, cold laser therapy is not only significant in reducing treatment times, it is cost effective as well.[/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”transparent” up=”10″ down=”0″][vc_column_text]The Healing Nature of Light: First developed over 30 years ago, phototherapy uses a specific type of light to penetrate the skin’s surface and underlying tissues to stimulate the body’s natural repair processes. The result is faster healing and reduced pain, swelling and inflammation. [/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”transparent” up=”10″ down=”0″][vc_column_text]When cells are exposed to photon energy, cellular charges are induced to change the cell homeostasis. This entails a cascade of reactions influencing a number of components of the respiratory chain. (i.e. cytochromes and cytochrome oxidase) which are the primary photo acceptors or chromophores, resulting in absorption of therapeutic wavelengths. This causes short term activation of the respiratory chain, leading to changes in redox status and in turn the activation of enhanced synthesis of ATP. The photons also affect hydrogen ion levels in the cell, in combination with increased ATP, affects the cell permeability and flow of sodium, potassium, and calcium. These changes are necessary to control the proliferative activity of the cell.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner][vc_separator type=”transparent” up=”40″ down=”0″][vc_column_text]
Some of the unique healing effects of Phototherapy include:
[/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”transparent” up=”10″ down=”0″][vc_column_text]
- Increased cell metabolism
- Improved localized blood circulation
- Development of collagen and muscle tissue
- Relief from acute and chronic pain
- Reduced localized inflammation and edema
- Stimulation for wound healing and tissue repair
- Stimulation of the immune system
- Stimulation of nerve function

Research demonstrates that phototherapy can be used to effectively treat many conditions.
Simulating the body’s natural repair processes using the healing nature of light has been proven particularly effective for certain conditions including:[/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”transparent” up=”10″ down=”0″][vc_column_text]
- Arthritis/rheumatism
- Tendonitis, tennis and golfer’s elbow
- Repetitive Stress Injuries (i.e. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome)
- Neck and Lower back pain
- Soft Tissue Injuries, Strains and Sprains
- Migraine headaches

WHAT IS Decompression Therapy (DTS)?
[/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”transparent” up=”10″ down=”0″][vc_column_text]DTS Decompression Therapy is a non-surgical answer for disc related syndromes of your lumbar or cervical spine. DTS Decompression Therapy treatments utilize sophisticated, FDA certified equipment that gently stretches the spine, taking pressure off the discs and joints, enhancing the natural healing process.
The gentle distractive force of DTS Decompression Therapy creates decompression, (unloading due to distraction and positioning), to improve blood flow and nutrient exchange in the injured area.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner][vc_separator type=”transparent” up=”40″ down=”0″][vc_column_text]
BASED ON COMFORT & SAFETY
[/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”transparent” up=”10″ down=”0″][vc_column_text]Unlike traditional treatments, DTS Decompression Therapy is actually based on your comfort and safety! The force gently graduates over several minutes to a peak that distracts the vertebra and gently stretches the soft tissue. You’ll experience several cycles of stretch and relaxation during DTS Therapy. Sessions are typically less than 20 minutes and many individuals’ benefit greatly with as few as 15-20 treatments.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row]
