Low-level laser therapy is a gentle treatment you can use to manage inflammation around the body. It’s a common practice that’s used alongside chiropractic care to help patients recover more comfortably.
What Does Low-Level Laser Therapy Do?
Low-laser therapy is a painless and non-invasive procedure. Using a low-level infrared laser and light-emitting diodes (LEDs), it stimulates chromophores in our cells to help them regenerate quickly. For example, if you have damaged tissues, this treatment can target the affected area and support healing.
How Laser Therapy Helps With Inflammation
Laser therapy is commonly used to deal with inflammation. By calming inflamed tissue and supporting circulation in the affected area, you’ll see a reduction in swelling, stiffness, and discomfort. When used with chiropractic care, laser therapy allows you to recover faster and restore natural movement more easily.
