Using Laser Light to Reduce Pain & Inflammation

The Medex Laser Light therapy utilizes light from the infrared and near red light energy spectrum.  This form of light has demonstrated therapeutic effects ranging from reducing pain and inflammation to stimulating  healing by increasing cellular activity.  Successful treatment has been seen in conditions such as tendonitis, arthritis, wounds, scars, fractures, repetitive strains, carpal tunnel syndrome and other soft tissue injures. 

How Does Laser Light Therapy Work?

Therapy involves saturating the injured or treatment area with the infrared light.  The light is then absorbed by the ‘power house’ of the cell, the mitochondria, which converts the light energy into cellular energy, similar to how plants convert sunlight for their functions.  The cell can then use this increased energy to perform its restorative functions.

Who Uses Laser Light Therapy?

This therapy is already being used by professional sports teams and Olympic athletes for its superior therapeutic benefits.

Dr. Kara Asks some important questions of interest to NW Calgary residents - Chiropractor NW Calgary Dr. Kara Asks...

Could a chiropractor put an end to bedwetting?
If bladder control seems elusive, consider chiropractic. If spinal bones are interfering with nerves that control your child's bladder, plastic sheets, alarms and other methods simply add to the embarrassment. NW Calgary parents are often amazed (and relieved) that chiropractic can be so helpful. Learn more.
Is a muscle spasm a cause or an effect?
With the knee-jerk use of muscle relaxers, you'd think it was a cause. But it's an effect. Chiropractors know that bones don't move unless muscles move them. And muscles don't contract unless commanded by the nervous system. That's why your nervous system is the focus of our NW Calgary chiropractic practice.
