Laser Therapy

What is Class IV Laser Therapy?

​

Class IV laser therapy is a safe, non-invasive treatment that uses focused light to help your body heal faster. The laser increases circulation, decreases pain, and boosts the cells that repair tissue.

​

What kinds of injuries does it help?

Class IV laser is often used for:

• Sprained ankles

• Muscle strains (hamstring, calf, back, etc.)

• Sports injuries

• Tendon or ligament irritation

• Bruising or swelling after trauma

• Post-surgical pain and inflammation​

​

Benefits you may notice

​

Less pain quickly:  Many people feel relief after the first 1–3 sessions

Reduced swelling + inflammation:  Helps you move sooner and more comfortably

Faster healing:  Cells repair themselves faster, so recovery time may shorten

Drug-free + non-invasive:  No injections, no medication, no downtime

​

What does it feel like?

Most patients feel nothing, at most a gentle warmth — not pain. Treatments are quick (often 5–10 minutes) and you can return to normal activities right away.

​

How many sessions will I need?

Every injury is different, but acute injuries often respond within 2–8 visits, depending on severity and how quickly you begin treatment after injury.

 

Is it safe?

Yes — when used by a trained provider. We’ll ask a few health questions before treatment, and you’ll wear safety glasses during the session. All sessions are provided by our Chiropractor, Jane, who has undertaken extensive training in laser therapies.
