#1 Rated Class 4 Laser Therapy in Towson MD

How Does Class 4 Laser Therapy Work?

A Class 4 laser emits a wavelength of photons that painlessly transfers energy to the nerve, muscle, ligament, and tendon tissue. Class 4 laser therapy stimulates the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) which drives many of the processes within our cells. This increased production of ATP helps speed up the healing process within cells. ATP brings oxygen, blood, and nutrients to the area treated with the laser which speeds up recovery and pain relief. As a result of increased ATP production, the patient experiences an improvement of symptoms, including reduced pain and swelling, increased range of motion and, of course, the heat from the laser is soothing as well.

Class 4 laser therapy benefits patients with a range of ailments and can be done in a very short amount of time. Most sessions range from 2-6 minutes so we're able to treat multiple areas of the body in a single session which improves your results and gets you feeling better faster. Many patients notice improvement after their first session so while you may need ten to fifteen sessions in total, you don't have to wait until the end to start feeling better.

Class 4 Laser Therapy Benefits

Laser therapy is a drug-free, surgery-free technique for reducing pain and swelling and improving a patient's range of motion. It can be used for both acute and chronic conditions without any side effects.

Surgery is often recommended to repair or replace joints and while there are certainly many times when surgery is appropriate and needs to be performed, there are times when other effective and less invasive options can be used including laser therapy. The speed, effectiveness, and pleasant sensation of the laser is unmatched by any other treatment. We love it when our patients tell us they already feel better after just one treatment.
