Laser Therapy At Chiropractic CareCentre
Photobiomodulation Therapy
[foh-toh-bahy-oh-moj-uh-ley-shuh n]
noun
A form of light therapy that utilizes non-ionizing forms of light sources, including lasers, LEDS, and broadband light, in the visible and infrared spectrum. It is a nonthermal process involving endogenous chromophores eliciting photophysical (i.e., linear and nonlinear) and photochemical events at various biological scales.
This process results in beneficial therapeutic outcomes including alleviation of pain or inflammation, immunomodulation, and promotion of wound healing and tissue regeneration.

“Cold” Laser – PhotoBioModulation
We also offer cold laser therapy at Chiropractic CareCentre. As an accumulative treatment, we offer packages for patients. Just like your lumbar disk didn’t become a problem overnight, it will take time for some injuries to heal, which often requires several sessions of cold laser therapy.
Cold laser therapy is usually a good fit for injuries to the extremities, like sprained ankles, ACL tears and other knee issues, shoulder pain, lower back pain, and even neck problems. Some patients with neuropathy have also found relief through cold laser therapy.
For those patients with nerve damage, there may be a bit of tingling, as the area is stimulated again, but many patients don’t feel anything at all.
- The three diode infrared Class 3B laser (808nm/300mW) penetrates up to 2 inches and is ideal for helping deep tissues such as tendons, muscles, and joints.
- The six diode Red laser( 650nm/5mW) penetrates 1 cm and is recommended for helping superficial wounds, cuts, and can be used for quick pain control since it reduces inflammation over nerve endings.
