We know you want to avoid surgery, pain medication, and long periods of downtime due to your injury or recovery. Laser therapy will help make that happen.
What is Laser Therapy?
Laser therapy may sound a bit intimidating, but we assure you, it’s safe, painless, and highly effective at healing damaged soft tissues and body imbalances.
Using light technology from a handheld device, we will project light over the skin for sessions lasting five to ten minutes. The treatment provides a warm, soothing sensation and often offers immediate relief by reducing inflammation and restrictions.
Benefits of laser therapy:
- Reduces swelling and inflammation
- Stimulates lymphatic drainage
- Reduces healing time
- Improves muscle mobility
- Stimulates the cells around the injury to increase the speed, quality, and strength of tissue repair
- Increases joint flexibility
- Offers pain relief and restored motion patterns
- Restricts the nerves related to the injury
- Stimulates soft tissue regeneration
- Stimulates bone repair
- Reduces muscles spams
How Does Laser Therapy Work?
When the powerful laser light is administered over the affected area, photons are pushed into the tissues under the skin. This invigorates the cells and maximizes healthy blood and oxygen circulation to the area being stimulated, which reduces pain.
Laser therapy, like all chiropractic treatments, allows the body to lean on its natural healing powers for the ultimate and safest healing process.
Does Laser Therapy Hurt?
Throughout your treatment, you will feel warmth over the area being treated but no pain. Some patients feel incredibly relaxed, as it has a calming effect, and they may fall asleep. Because the impact of the laser lasts for 18-24 hours after the completion of the treatment, you may experience a slight sensation to the skin that was affected but no notable discomfort.
Conditions Laser Therapy Can Help
Laser therapy is efficient, effective, and safe, making it available to treat many conditions and many kinds of patients. Our clinic has provided laser therapy to those with mild aches, chronic pain, and suffering from traumatic events, all with tremendous results.
Common conditions treated with laser therapy include:
- Back pain

- And more
The truth is almost everything can be treated with laser therapy. In most cases, we use laser treatments in combination with other chiropractic solutions to enhance recovery and strengthen the musculoskeletal system.
Common chiropractic services used with laser therapy include:
- Chiropractic care: adjustments or manipulations made to targeted joints and soft tissues using a swift, firm thrust so you can achieve balance and alignment to the spine or other affected area
- Rehabilitation: exercise therapy that stretches and strengthens the body so you can move freely and confidently
- Muscle and soft tissue therapies: promote the function and placement of affected tissues, reducing pressures, inflammation, and pain
None of our in-clinic solutions would mean anything without the guidance and education for you to maintain your good results. We’ll review lifestyle choices, postural advice, movement patterns and techniques, and more to help keep your body safe and active going forward.

What Our Racine Patients Have to Say About Laser Therapy
"I was experiencing debilitating buttocks and bilateral hamstring pain that I felt was coming from my glutes and SI joint. I had an adjustment and then the new laser treatment. Immediately after the laser treatment, the tenderness to palpation of the left SI joint and glutes resolved, and weight bearing and sit-to-stand were nearly back to normal. I was able to function the rest of the day with minimal soreness. Stretching was performed at ease, and I no longer had pain. It was unreal how the laser took away the Point tenderness and radiating symptoms. "
