Chiropractor – Hot Springs – Helps with Cold | Laser

Laser therapy may sound like something out of a sci-fi movie but it has become a standard of care for many musculoskeletal injuries since being cleared by the FDA in 2003. Your chiropractor Hot Springs has two lasers available for use and at a convenient location. Laser therapy uses specific wavelengths of light (red and near-infrared) to create therapeutic effects. The light that is transmitted via the laser stimulates certain processes within the body that help provide relief to symptoms including pain, swelling, and limited range of motion. There are different classes of lasers like the Class 3 laser which is a cold laser whereas the Class 4 laser produces heat. We decided to purchase a Class 4 laser because we are the choice chiropractor for the local sports teams and that laser is a part of their treatment protocol. It has been a staple for the local sports teams and now we’re able to offer this specialized treatment to all of our patients so they can take advantage of the wide variety of Class 4 laser therapy benefits. Laser therapy may sound like it could be painful but actually, it creates a warm sensation that is quite relaxing. Class 4 laser therapy is a very safe procedure but because our eyes are very sensitive to photons, everyone in the room during laser therapy wears protective safety glasses. This treatment is extremely safe, effective, free of side effects, and works faster than you might think.
