The following information is provided by Summus Medical Laser for the H1 Laser that we use in house for therapeutic relief.
Here are common patient questions and their answers in an easy to use FAQ:
“It’s an FDA-cleared therapeutic treatment that manages pain and inflammation while accelerating tissue
regeneration.”
Laser energy increases circulation, drawing water, oxygen, and nutrients to the damaged area. This creates an
optimal healing environment that reduces inflammation, swelling, muscle spasm, stiffness and pain.
We’ve added Laser therapy to our practice because we want to provide an effective and safe treatment option for
our patients to heal quickly, recover fully and reduce pain effectively.
There is little or no sensation during treatment. Occasionally, the patient feels mild, soothing warmth, or tingling
sensations. Areas of pain or inflammation may be sensitive briefly before pain reduction.
During more than twenty years of use by healthcare providers all over the world, very few side effects have ever
been reported. Occasionally, some old injuries or pain syndromes may feel aggravated for a few days as the healing
response is more active after treatment.
Acute conditions may be treated daily, particularly if they are accompanied by significant pain. More chronic
problems respond better when treatments are received 2 to 3 times a week, tapering to once every week or two as
improvement is seen.
This depends on the nature of the condition being treated. For some acute conditions 4 to 6 treatments may be
sufficient. Those of a more chronic nature may require 6 to 12 (or more) treatments. Conditions such as severe
arthritis may require ongoing periodic care to control pain.
You may feel improvement in your condition (usually pain reduction) after the very first treatment. Sometimes you
will not feel improvement for a number of treatments. This does not mean that the condition is not improving. Each
treatment is cumulative and results are often felt after 3 or 4 sessions.
