Class IV Laser Therapy: Healing and Pain Relief at Full Life Chiropractic
At Full Life Chiropractic, we are committed to providing cutting-edge treatments to help our patients recover from pain, injuries, and chronic conditions. One of the most effective tools we use is Class IV laser therapy. Available at both our Lutz, FL, and Winter Haven, FL locations, this powerful technology is revolutionizing the way we treat a wide range of conditions.
What is Class IV Laser Therapy?
Class IV laser therapy, also known as high-intensity laser therapy (HILT), uses specific wavelengths of light to penetrate deep into tissues. The laser stimulates cellular activity, promoting healing and reducing inflammation. Unlike Class III lasers, which are often used for low-level light therapy (LLLT), Class IV lasers deliver significantly more power, allowing for deeper tissue penetration and quicker results.
Conditions Treated by Class IV Laser Therapy
Class IV laser therapy is beneficial for a variety of conditions. It is particularly effective in treating:
- Chronic pain (e.g., neck, back, and shoulder pain)
- Inflammation from conditions like arthritis or tendinitis
- Soft tissue injuries, such as sprains, strains, and ligament tears
- Sports injuries including muscle strains and joint injuries
- Nerve pain, including neuropathy and radiculopathy
- Post-surgical recovery to accelerate healing and reduce scar tissue
- Wounds and skin ulcers that are slow to heal
- Knee pain, especially from osteoarthritis
- Plantar fasciitis for foot pain relief
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
This non-invasive treatment is often used as an alternative to medication or surgery, offering a natural, safe, and effective approach to recovery.
Who Can Benefit from Class IV Laser Therapy?
Class IV laser therapy can be beneficial for anyone suffering from chronic pain, inflammation, or acute injuries. Athletes, seniors, and individuals recovering from surgery or traumatic injuries often experience significant benefits. Additionally, those with chronic conditions like arthritis or fibromyalgia may find lasting relief with this treatment. By enhancing circulation, reducing swelling, and promoting tissue repair, Class IV laser can significantly improve mobility and quality of life for many.
Proven Benefits of Class IV Laser Therapy
Numerous peer-reviewed studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of laser therapy. For instance, research shows that laser therapy significantly reduces pain and inflammation by modulating cellular processes, enhancing collagen production, and increasing microcirculation . Other studies suggest that high-intensity laser therapy accelerates recovery time and improves outcomes for musculoskeletal injuries and chronic conditions .
