Related Conditions
Peripheral Neuropathy
Peripheral neuropathy is a condition affecting small nerves in the body, often in the feet. There are a number of conditions which cause neuropathy including diabetes, chemotherapy, B12 deficiency, low back problems and more. Symptoms are commonly burning or tingling in the feet and a lack of feeling. In many cases, symptoms progressively worsen if not properly addressed. Laser therapy can significantly reduce symptoms of nerve damage.
Shingles
Shingles, or herpes zoster, is an infection caused by the chickenpox virus, which sits dormant for years in the nervous system. Symptoms include pain and a rash on one side of the body. Shingles most commonly affects older adults and people with weak immune systems.
1/3 of all people will experience shingles pain in their lifetime. While there are few effective and safe treatment options to remedy the pain of shingles, laser therapy has been shown to be very effective with minimal side effects. Laser therapy is a drug free, safe and effective treatment for shingles pain.
Tendinitis
Tendons are tough, flexible, fibrous bands of tissue that connect muscles to bones. When tendons become inflamed, irritated or suffer microscopic tears, the condition is called tendinitis. Laser therapy stimulates quick healing and reduces time away from work or activity. Tendinitis usually happens for one of two reasons:
- Over-use: An action repeated too frequently
- Overload: An activity is increased too quickly causing injury
Sports Injuries
We treat many sports related injuries such as, sprains, strains, concussions and a variety of muscle and joint injuries. Laser therapy can help return an athlete to their sport sooner by accelerating the healing of these injuries.
