Understanding Light & Laser Therapies
Have you been curious about the different types of light therapies and the benefits they offer? Let's break it down...
1. Red Light Therapy
Pe*******on: 0.1–0.2 inches (surface-level)
Best For: Skin health, minor surface inflammation, collagen support
Home Use: Perfect for daily maintenance—helps keep tissues healthy and reduce surface-level tension.
2. Cold Laser Therapy (Low-Level Laser Therapy)
Pe*******on: 0.5–1 inch
Best For: Soft tissue pain, minor inflammation, minor injuries, and certain neurological conditions.
Use Case: Gentle, non-invasive relief for aches, chronic discomfort, and nerve-related issues.
3. Class 4 Laser Therapy (High-Power)
Pe*******on: 2–4+ inches (deep muscles, tendons, joints)
Best For: Nerve pain and neuropathies, soft-tissue injuries, inflammation, muscle pain and tension, tissue repair, bruising, and more.
Why it matters:
Think of pain like an iceberg—the tip is visible, but the root often lies deep below. Red light therapy is great, and we highly recommend it for home use; however, if you need deeper, more targeted relief, the Class 4 Laser helps reduce pain and heal faster and more effectively.
🔹 Tip: Use red light at home for daily care. When deeper, advanced healing is needed, our Class 4 laser therapy is the go-to solution.
If you need a little more targeted relief… Call us to schedule or learn more. We have packages available and now offer Class 4 Laser Therapy in combination with Manual Soft Tissue Therapy with Dr. Christian for enhanced results.
