Laser Chiropractic Treatment

Some chiropractors now use lasers as treatment for sore backs and muscles. Though far from the traditional manipulations done by chiropractors, the use of laser beams can achieve the same effect.

  1. Significance

    • The use of laser light energy is used to stimulate cells and tissues to speed up their recovery process.

    Time Frame

    • According to Brant Chiropractic, the laser energy is placed on the skin for 20 to 30 minutes per session. Typically, it will take at least five sessions before you notice results.

    Benefits

    • Laser treatment is used for people with issues such as back pain, plantar fasciitis, sciatica, arthritis and carpal tunnel vision.

    Function

    • According to Chiroweb, clinical studies have proven laser light therapy to be effective and safe for people with pain.

    Considerations

    • Laser light therapy has not received approval from the Food and Drug Administration. You should discuss its benefits and risks with your doctor before you decide to use it.
