:: Cold Laser Therapy

Introducing the FDA approved Erchonia PL-5000 Cold Laser.

Some of the biological benefits of low level laser therapy are anti-inflammatory, edema reduction, reduced fibrous tissue formation, increased tissue activity, stimulated cell growth, and cell regeneration.

The Erchonia Laser is a weak stimulus at a precise wavelength of light, tuned to produce an optimal physical effect. The strong effects of this painless and safely tuned laser light are truly amazing! The biological law known as Arnt-Schultz shows that such a weak stimuus can cause strong physiological responses, while stronger stimuli can retard or even stop responses by the body! Because the Erchonia is a 'line' laser, it only produces 1 mw of energy - considered a weak stimulus. With an optimized wavelength of 635 nm, the laser stimulates the body’s systemic defenses, nerves and repair mechanisms.

What is the Erchonia Cold Laser?

The Erchonia Laser is a TRUE LASER, fully compliant to the definitions set forth by those great men of science such as Bose and Einstein who predicted LASER in 1924. LASER is an acronym for Light Amplification by stimulated Emission of Radiation. According to Webster’s Dictionary, Lasers are coherent or marked by logical consistency. The Erchonia Laser produces an emission of coherent light, generated at a precise and stable frequency, and in a focused direction.

• stimulated cell growth
• cell regeneration

How do we use the Erchonia Cold Laser?

We are able to use the Erchonia Cold Laser to assist all healing modalities in our office due to its unique properties. It has been especially useful in helping people with headaches, migraines, athletic injuries, strains and sprains, muscle spasm, muscle weakness, stiff joints, arthritis, and chronic pain just to name a few. Treatments are painless and short in duration.

Have studies been performed to demonstrate the healing properties of the Erchonia Cold Laser?

Yes, multiple studies had to be conducted in order to receive FDA clearance. One study included the use of the Laser in the treatment of chronic neck and shoulder pain. The conclusion was that the Erchonia Cold Laser was an effective single treatment option for chronic neck and shoulder pain resulting from Osteoarthritis, Muscle Spasms, or cervical/thoracic sprain/strain conditions.
