Many people mistakenly believe that strengthening exercises will fix their back pain, but if the pain persists, it’s a sign that the underlying tissues are damaged. Weak muscles don’t hurt — injured ones do. Even strong, fit individuals can suffer from low back pain caused by micro-trauma and tissue disruption, regardless of whether a disc bulge is present. In fact, disc bulges are common even in people with no symptoms.
Just like a broken bone needs time and support to heal, your injured core tissues need the right treatment before they can regain strength. That’s where our approach comes in.

At Laser Pain Therapy, our treatment protocol combines Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) and targeted rehab to help your body reduce inflammation, repair damaged tissues, and then safely build strength — all without drugs or invasive procedures. This proven, affordable treatment helps relieve chronic pain and restore your ability to move, work, and enjoy life again.

2025 BMJ ARTICLE - INTERVENTIONS FOR CHRONIC BACK PAIN DON’T WORK.
TRY LASER PAIN THERAPY INSTEAD!
A new international guideline questions the effectiveness of interventions such as spine/epidural and costly nerve ablations injections which offer little benefit for chronic back pain. A review of over 130 TRIALS found no significant pain relief from 13 commonly used interventional treatments, including local anesthetic and steroid injections. https://doi.org/10.1136/bmj-2024-079970 . The panel, which included healthcare professionals and chronic pain patients, recommended these procedures be limited to research. Professor Jane Ballantyne, a key contributor, emphasised that despite their popularity, the research challenges the routine use of spine injections and calls for a shift toward non-procedural treatments. These findings could influence future healthcare practices and funding for spine injections.
At Laser Pain Therapy we offer a safe, painless, proven solution for chronic back pain by targeting its root causes. Photobiomodulation Therapy or Low-Level Laser Therapy or LLLT helps reduce inflammation, enhancing blood flow, easing muscle spasms, and promoting tissue healing. As your pain decreases, rehabilitation can begin, focusing on strengthening and conditioning your back for long-term relief. You can overcome back pain without relying on medications, injections, or surgery, especially when other treatments have been ineffective.

WHY YOUR PLANTAR FASCIITIS WON’T GO AWAY & WHAT ACTUALLY WORKS: HEAL YOUR HEEL!
Plantar fasciitis is a common and debilitating condition that goes on and on plaguing its sufferer. This, despite best efforts to religiously follow standard advice. It is usually characterised by a sharp, stabbing heel pain when you get out of bed, turning every step into agony.
Standard advice such as rolling a frozen bottle, stretching, massaging with a spiky ball, or relying on orthotics often does more harm than good by limiting blood flow, irritating healing tissue, or overstretching the injured fascia.
So what actually works? Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), also known as Photobiomodulation Therapy (PBMt), helps reduce inflammation and promote true tissue repair—helping you heal instead of just managing symptoms.
At Laser Pain Therapy, our tailored program, combined with the correct self-care strategies, provides real relief and lasting recovery from plantar fasciitis. Say goodbye to heel pain for good!

PARACETAMOL SALES BEING RESTRICTED – TRY LASER PAIN THERAPY INSTEAD!
As of February 1, 2025, Australia has imposed restrictions on paracetamol sales to reduce overdose risks by limiting pack sizes. This aligns with policies in the UK, Denmark, and Ireland.
Causes of chronic pain leading to patients relying on regular paracetamol dosing are varied. Unresolved injuries, chronic localised muscular or joint pain, including old injuries, post-op pain, osteoarthritis etc respond well to our Low Level laser Therapy (or Photobiomodulation Therapy - PBMt) treatment. PBMt treats the underlying cause, healing the disturbed tissue thus enabling patients to get off their pain meds. A full list of conditions that we treat can be found in the following link. Call us now to find out if we can help your chronic pain in Melbourne on 03 8529 2225.

BREAKTHROUGH TREATMENT FOR BURSITIS:
Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), now termed Photobiomodulation Therapy (PBMt), is one of the few proven, effective treatments for bursitis, a painful condition caused by repetitive strain, overuse, or acute injury. Unlike the more common steroid injections, LLLT provides a safe, painless alternative.
Bursitis typically affects areas such as the shoulder (subdeltoid or subacromial bursitis), hip (greater trochanteric bursitis), knee (pre-patellar bursitis), and foot (metatarsalgia). The treatment is highly effective, completely painless, and safe.

Call us now at LASER PAIN THERAPY, our Melbourne-based medical clinic, to see how our treatment can rid you of your chronic bursitis pain on 03 8529 2225 or visit us at https://www.laserpaintherapy.com.au/

Our clinic director Dr Shikha Parmar is on her way to London to present at the 30th Photobiomodulation Conference, World Congress being held in London this weekend.
She is delighted to be presenting again, the topic is "CLINICAL PEARLS FOR THE MUSCULOSKELETAL PBMt PRACTITIONER"

The event is as follows:

"PBM 2024 is the World's Premiere Photobiomodulation event, https://www.pbm2024.com/

There will be 150 incredible speakers, delivering 170 research papers, including the US Air Force covering treatment parameters and the efficacy of PBM devices.
Harvard Medical School will present on PBM and the brain. The NHS will show its research on PBM and the acute and late effects of cancer therapy.
We will present research on how PBM might help delay the four leading causes of non-accidental death and also chronic pain.

This will be the largest Photobiomodulation conference in our history, and scientists, doctors, dentists, veterinaries, nurses, therapists, will be sharing their knowledge, research and insights".

A SAFE AFFORDABLE TREATMENT OPTION FOR CHRONIC BACK PAIN AND SCIATICA: NO SURGERY, NON-INVASIVE, PAINLESS: LOW LEVEL LASER OR PHOTOBIOMODULATION THERAPY.
This follows the ABC Four Corners episode Pain Factory
https://help.abc.net.au/hc/en-us/articles/9439035893391-Four-Corners-Pain-Factory-Monday-8-April-on-ABC-TV-and-ABC-iview
We can’t help everyone with chronic back pain but this non-invasive treatment approach which includes the use of proven and evidence-based low level INFRARED laser light devices can be very effective and successful in reducing pain and improving function, restoring your quality of life. Without medication, needles or injections, in just 3 weeks we can help start the process of turning your pain around. Low level laser therapy (LLLT), also termed Photobiomodulation Therapy (PBMT) is based on almost 60 years of scientific study and research backed by reputable institutions such as Harvard and NASA. The evidence is there that LLLT/PBMT addresses the underlying cause of a lot of chronic back pain – soft tissue injury, nerve injury, inflammation, muscle spasm etc. Here, surgery is a poor alternative, cortisone injections temporarily reduce pain, and pain medications and spinal cord stimulators mask pain. See how our finite treatment approach which includes LLLT/PBMT can end your pain cycle today: https://laserpaintherapy.com.au/back_pain_treatment/

CHANGING THE PARADIGM OF PAIN MANAGEMENT – TED TALK
Photobiomodulation (PBM) or Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is slowly hitting the mainstream. The medical community is waking up to this safe, painless, effective treatment for the cause of many chronically painful conditions. Instead of just managing symptoms, which pain relief medications (analgesics) such as opioids do, PBMT addresses the underlying cause by clearing chronic, indolent inflammation and stimulating and re-engaging your own immune healing. Opioids have a crucial role in relieving pain caused by acute trauma, malignancy, and certain degenerative conditions. But unresolved tissue damage or injury causing ongoing pain is often salvageable and reversible as we repeatedly demonstrate with our treatment protocol which includes proven Low Level Laser Therapy, thus helping sufferers discontinue their potentially problematic analgesics.
Take a look at this inspiring TED talk where Scott Sigman MD, https://ortholazer.com/ opioid-sparing orthopaedic surgeon reveals how PBM is revolutionising pain management. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOOSotmab_4
Less a lecture, more a revelation: It’s a 𝙥𝙖𝙧𝙖𝙙𝙞𝙜𝙢 𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙛𝙩 from traditional opioid treatments to the power of 𝙡𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙥𝙮. Whether you're a healthcare professional or someone who experiences pain, and needs convincing about the power of PBMT, this TED Talk will open your eyes to new possibilities and our use of cutting-edge of medical science.
