Erchonia® Laser Therapy at
Broadway Family Chiropractic
Cold laser therapy (or low level light therapy, as it’s sometimes called) can be an effective method to facilitate healing of a variety of conditions. It works by directing a beam of specific frequencies of red, violet and/or green light through the skin into the tissues below. The light is absorbed into the mitochondria, or “powerhouse” of your cells, where it reacts and causes an increase in production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is the energy source for cells and cellular functions. Think of it like it “wakes up” or “sparks” your healing ability through better function in your cells!
This additional energy speeds the healing process by promoting cell recovery, reducing pain and inflammation and restoring normal cell function and communication between the cells. As a result, laser therapy may help you heal faster and more thoroughly so you can feel and move better, sooner.
Our Approach
At Broadway Family Chiropractic, we may recommend laser therapy as part of your customized care plan. Laser therapy is excellent for healing scar tissue, which can help relieve pain and restore mobility. It is also useful for chronic issues that haven’t responded to other therapies, as well as acute injuries. Laser helps to accelerate your body’s ability to heal faster. It’s a non-invasive approach that targets pain and helps improve quality of life without drugs or surgery.
What to Expect
We will conduct a dynamic biostructural examination to determine how laser therapy may be beneficial in your care. The therapy itself lasts from 5-20 minutes, depending on your situation. It’s completely painless and there is no down time.
You may feel slight warming in the affected area. This is due to increased cellular activity in the region—the laser itself does not produce any heat.
