Is Cold Laser Therapy Good for Arthritis?

Chiropractic arthritis treatment in Port Orchard, WA may include a combination of chiropractic therapies, including chiropractic care and cold laser therapy. Here’s a look at how cold laser therapy arthritis treatment works.
How Does Cold Laser Therapy Work?
During cold laser therapy, your chiropractor will use a small device to beam light energy at the targeted treatment area. The device emits low levels of energy that don’t heat or damage the skin. The light energy, or photons, penetrate deep within the skin and tissue to the affected joint. As the body absorbs the light, it triggers a chemical change that stimulates cell and tissue healing and regrowth. During each treatment session, your chiropractor will place the device very close to the treatment area for 30-60 seconds at a time. You may need to undergo many treatment sessions to see results.
What Arthritis Symptoms Are Treated by Cold Laser Therapy?
Cold laser therapy can reduce or eliminate many uncomfortable symptoms of arthritis, including:
- Acute or chronic pain
- Inflammation
- Poor circulation or blood flow
- Edema and swelling
- Stiffness
- Mobility issues
- Problems with flexibility or range of motion
Cold laser therapy can also speed up wound healing and promote cell and tissue regrowth.
Why Choose Cold Laser Therapy for Arthritis Pain?

There are no risks of undergoing cold laser therapy for arthritis, and you won’t experience any negative side effects or downtime. Cold laser therapy is safe for all ages, all levels and types of arthritis, and all lifestyles.
