Cold Laser Therapy At Spine Care in Scarsdale, NY – How it Can Help You

Cold laser therapy, a service offered at the Spine Care office in Scarsdale, NY, is a safe and effective way to treat a variety of conditions. The term laser is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. To understand laser therapy, one must understand cells. The laser literally stimulates the cells and tissues of the body and forces them to do their job. This means coaxing the cells to regenerate and heal parts of the body that have been plagued by chronic pain. Pain itself is caused by cellular malfunction or disruption, so healing can only begin at the cellular level. Laser therapy is what kick starts this healing process.

Low-level lasers, also known as soft tissue lasers or cold laser therapy, have been used throughout the world for the last thirty years as an effective method of relieving pain. Scientific studies have shown that cold lasers stimulate cells to produce endorphins. These endorphins naturally reduce pain, promote healing, reduce inflammation, decrease swelling, relax muscles, enhance the immune system, and re-energize the cells. While many chronic conditions such as fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and arthritis have benefited from the use of cold lasers, the latest trend has been to utilize the technology in anti-aging procedures.

Every day we age our cell function begins to slow down, and so does the cellular activity that keeps us looking young. Cold laser therapy has been proven to promote anti-aging when applied to wrinkles, acne scars, varicose veins, and eczema. It’s even been shown to increase the appearance of burns and psoriasis. Since laser therapy has a natural antioxidant effect, it can give your face a youthful glow and reduce those fine lines without surgery or chemical injections. There are also no risks involved since the procedure is painless and completely non-invasive, which is not something you cannot often say about beauty procedures.

Before opting for cold laser therapy, consult your general physician for a complete medical evaluation. Certain patients may be at risk during a low-level laser session. These include those who are pregnant, are undergoing treatment for cancer, have tumors, or are epileptic. Anyone with a blood clotting disorder will not qualify for this type of therapy. The costs associated with cold lasers are typically much lower than surgical costs, but not all health insurance plans will cover it. If you want to feel immediate relief from localized pain, arthritis, tendonitis, migraines, carpal tunnel, or any conditions associated with chronic pain, therapy involving cold lasers may be just what you need.
