Laser Treatment
Our Summus Laser is designed to relieve neck & back pain & many other painful conditions quickly, often on the first visit.
If you have a focused point of pain, we have the solution. If you’ve been nursing an injury and hoping it would fix itself, you should know they often don’t. The problem with connective tissue injuries is that those tissues don’t have much of a direct blood supply. Blood is needed to get tissues to heal. Often the cumulative stress of daily activities creates a situation where the micro-traumas occur faster than the tissue's ability to heal, especially after an initial injury.
Say you have tendonitis in your elbow that started with a minor injury. Often these problems don’t resolve because of the daily use the tendon gets while going through the motions of life. Grip strength is affected. Life gets more complicated as you avoid doing things that you usually do every day.
The laser works by increasing the supply of fuel that cells use to do everything they do, including the repair of injuries. During treatment, laser energy increases circulation, drawing water, oxygen, and nutrients to the damaged area. The rate of repair can then exceed the rate of micro-trauma. Your pain goes away, even after other soft tissue interventions have failed.
Class IV Laser Therapy can help decrease inflammation and pain in acute, chronic, superficial, or deep conditions by increasing circulation and enhancing tissue repair. Laser therapy works by delivering specific red and near-infrared wavelengths of laser light to induce a photochemical reaction and therapeutic effect. It is a preferred choice for practitioners worldwide, and Summus Medical Laser® was cleared by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2005.
The best part The process itself is painless. You feel nothing but a soothing warmth during treatment. But what’s going on inside your tissues for the 48 hours following can be miraculous.
