What Is Cold Laser Therapy?

Cold laser therapy—also called photobiomodulation or low‑level laser/light therapy (LLLT)—uses specific red and near‑infrared wavelengths applied to the skin. The light is absorbed by cellular photoreceptors, which can modulate cellular energy pathways and signaling involved in pain and inflammation. The treatment is non‑invasive and typically painless.

No cutting, no heat injury: This is not a surgical or ablative laser. You may feel little to no sensation—sometimes mild warmth or tingling.

How It Works

  1. Consultation & Targeting: We review your history, goals (pain relief, tendon recovery, joint comfort), and perform a brief exam to select areas and dosing.

  2. Session (10–20 minutes per area): A handheld emitter is placed on the skin and cycles through programmed doses. You relax while we monitor comfort and parameters.

  3. Aftercare: You can return to normal activity right away. Mild, short‑lived redness is possible. We may pair laser with simple mobility or exercise for carryover.

What You’ll Feel & When (Typical Timeline)

  1. Immediately–24 hours: Some feel a calming of symptoms and easier motion.

  2. 1–3 weeks: With a short series (e.g., 2–3 sessions/week), benefits typically build alongside exercises.

  3. Ongoing: Frequency tapers as goals are met; some choose periodic maintenance during heavy training or work blocks.

Benefits of Cold Laser Therapy

  • Pain modulation: Light input can help dial down pain signaling and muscular guarding so movement feels easier.

  • Inflammation support: Dosing can be set to help calm inflammatory mediators and post‑activity soreness.

  • Tissue healing environment: Supports conditions where tendons, fascia, or joints need a nudge during rehab.

Evidence ranges from supportive to mixed across conditions. We use laser thoughtfully as part of a broader, active care plan.

  • Active infection at pad/contact site

  • Directly over thyroid

Use caution / clinician guidance:
