Low Intensity Laser (LILT) Services Laser Therapy Edmonton Chiropractic and Wellness Clinic is pleased to be able to provide laser therapy to assist in the body's recuperative processes through providing 3 types of tissue penetrating light (red, infrared, and laser) to heal at the cellular level. Laser therapy is the use of monochromatic light emission from a low intensity laser diode or an array of high intensity Super Luminous Diodes to treat musculoskeletal injuries, chronic and degenerative conditions, and to heal wounds. With this form of treatment, the body's immune response is stimulated. Essentially, this laser therapy jump-starts the body's natural healing process by sending energy into muscles and joints, that is then transformed into biochemical energy. This decreases swelling, accelerates healing time, and increases one's pain threshold. Who Might Benefit From LILT? Patients who have had the following disorders and concerns have found relief from laser therapy: Repetitive Stress Injuries Ligament and Tendon Tears Fractures Associated with soft tissue injuries Facet Syndrome Contusions Rotator Cuff Tear Tendonitis Plantar Faciitis Arthritis Bursitis Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Shoulder-Neck Syndrome Golf and Tennis Elbow Conditions Burns Dermal Ulcers Wound Healing Gout Dermatological Conditions including shingles, dermatitis, and psoriasis
