Low-Level Laser Therapy in Boston

At Charles Street Family Chiropractic, we are committed to helping you attain a pain-free life so you can return to the activities you love! That is why we have invested in two types of Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) to stimulate the body’s natural processes. The lasers reduce inflammation and speed healing without pain or side effects. Here’s a look at each type:

FX635 Laser from Erchonia

The FX 635 laser offers a non-invasive, comfortable and effective solution that targets pain centers and helps to relieve musculoskeletal conditions.

Different colored lasers, known as wavelengths, are used to treat a variety 0f issues. By applying specific laser colors, you can achieve pain relief without harmful side effects associated with prescription medication.

GigaLaser

The GigaLaser is a class 3B cold laser, which is incredibly powerful. In addition to its laser diodes for treating underlying areas, the GigaLaser also features red and blue/violet light. The red light (660 nm) stimulates the microcirculation on the skin’s surface, and the blue/violet light (405 nm) helps reduce bacteria on the skin’s surface.

Because the GigaLaser delivers a significant dosage of laser light quickly, treatment with this laser is less time-consuming and more efficient for patients. Benefits of this laser include increased circulation, decreased inflammation and pain, and faster healing.

Help for fertility

Low-Level Laser Therapy in Boston, MAInfertility can be a challenging and emotionally taxing experience for individuals and couples who are longing to start or expand their families. Recent groundbreaking research from Denmark and Japan offers new hope for those struggling with infertility. These studies have shown that low-level laser therapy, specifically using the GigaLaser device, may be able to improve egg quality and fertility in women.

So how exactly does low-level laser therapy work? The therapy has been found to enhance mitochondrial activity and ATP production, increase blood flow, and reduce oxidative damage by targeting specific acupuncture points on the neck and over the abdomen. This means that the cells responsible for egg production are given a boost of energy and protection against potential harm.

What does this mean for women undergoing fertility treatment? The studies have shown that low-level laser therapy can significantly increase pregnancy rates, particularly in those who have been unsuccessful with other assisted reproductive treatments like in vitro fertilization (IVF).

LLLT Addresses Many Conditions

Because LLLT utilizes the body’s natural healing processes, it can be used to possibly help with a variety of issues, including (but not limited to) the following:

  • Arthritis
  • Bursitis
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Foot and heel pain
  • Knee pain

The laser promotes tissue healing, improves circulation, and reduces inflammation naturally.

A Holistic, Drug-Free Approach

By combining chiropractic care with the FDA-cleared laser therapy, we can use a two-pronged approach to dealing with your problems at their source. That’s the opposite approach to prescribing painkillers, which just mask pain. We aim to solve the problem rather than hide it while it worsens.

What to Expect

We will have you either in a sitting or lying down position. Then, we’ll point the laser at the source of the problem: spinal discs, heel, knee, or other area. The laser will do its job. Over repeated treatments, you may see swelling or other symptoms reduce.

No recovery time is required with LLLT. That’s a significant benefit of this therapy, as recovery time is needed for those who undergo surgery.
