What Is Cold Laser Therapy?
Cold Laser Therapy is a specialized treatment that uses low levels of light from a laser to stimulate healing. Treatment is completely painless and is referred to as "cold" because the intensity is low enough that is doesn’t generate heat but doesn't actually cool down your tissues.
Cold Laser therapy offers a non-invasive alternative to acupuncture and surgery. It also provides a non-addicting treatment, eliminating the risks that tend to come with long-term drug treatment programs.
At East Bay Spine And Disc Institute, we use the ML830 Smart Laser alongside our Spinal Decompression Therapy. By using Cold Laser Therapy together with this form of therapy, we can provide you with quick recovery without any serious side effects.
What Is Hot Laser Therapy?
Hot Laser Therapy is a non-invasive, painless light therapy that uses specific wavelengths of light to help patients inflicted with soft tissue and muscle pain and debilitating conditions. There are many issues that Hot Laser Therapy can help with, with some related to the spine and some not. The tissue absorbs this light and can affect damaged cells that helps promote their regeneration.
During the procedure, patients can feel the device against their skin, it will feel very warm and comfortable. At East Bay Spine And Disc Institute, we use the VELAS Medical Diode Laser System to perform this therapy alongside our Spinal Decompression Therapy. The bones are properly aligned while the hot laser helps keep the spinal column aligned and relaxed. This is done by concentrating on the muscles and tissues surrounding it. This allows the body to maximize the results of the decompression therapy. Hot Laser Therapy increases flexiblity, mobility, and causes tissue healing at the cellular level. It's wonderful for its deep healing effects on chronically damaged tissue.
