Laser Therapy
If you have chronic or acute pain caused by disease or injury, Deep Tissue Laser Therapy could eliminate your pain and speed your healing. Canada’s only approved Class IV Deep Tissue Laser Therapy offers advanced pain relief and promotes rapid healing through a process known as photobiostimulation. Ideal for enhanced relief of neck, lower back, wrist, knee, elbow and joint pain, muscle spasms, foot and ankle pain, skin conditions, open wounds, post-operative recovery and sports injuries.
If you’re ready to quick smoking, lasers can help by stimulating acupuncture points on the ear, hand and knee. This helps to dramatically reduce nicotine cravings in chronic smokers and helps reset their metabolism to minimize the unpleasant symptoms of withdrawal.
Our Class IV Lasers activate a biochemical cascade of events resulting in rapid regeneration, normalization and healing of damaged cellular tissue Photonic stimulation is the trigger for these metabolic changes. In simpler terms, the laser brings light to living tissues. This process causes damaged cells to repair more rapidly, inflammation to be reduced and quickly reduces pain. The laser stimulates the growth of an improved vascular supply in the region treated as well as enhancing the body's immune response and creating collagen formation to strengthen skin, muscles, tendons and ligaments.
A Valentus Clinics Certified Laser Technician will record a detailed health history on your first assessment visit, administer therapy if necessary and set up your personal treatment plan. Depending on the area of treatment, you'll either lie down on a table or sit in a chair as a painless laser light source is placed directly on your skin. You may experience a warm sensation.
Lasers are proven effective in treating skin conditions ranging from shingles, ulcerations and eczema to psoriasis, acne and rosacea. Laser therapy jump-starts the body's natural healing process by delivering biochemical energy to tissues. This results in increased blood supply and faster healing.
People with chronic or unexplained pain generally experience true, drug-free relief with laser treatments. Research also shows laser therapy to be a remarkably effective treatment for acute and chronic wounds and sores that won’t heal. The laser attacks the inflammation around wounds, while the endorphins it stimulates can help to immediately ease the pain. It’s also ideal post-surgery as it will decrease pain and speed the healing process.
It is an innovative, scientifically based, therapeutic technology that offers advanced pain relief and expedited healing times through a process known as photobiostimulation. It is a non-invasive, painless, comfortable and safe treatment. It is FDA and Health-Canada approved.
