FAQs
Is Class IV Laser Therapy safe?
Yes! Class IV Laser Therapy is one of the most studied, non-invasive, and safest options for acute and chronic pain relief. Our experienced practitioners adhere to strict safety protocols to ensure a comfortable and risk-free experience.
How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions required varies and our expert team will develop a personalized treatment plan based on your specific needs and goals. While it is possible to experience pain relief after one treatment, most people require a succession of treatments to synergistically produce an optimal outcome. For example, you don’t just go to the gym one time and expect immediate results.
What conditions can Class IV Laser Therapy treat?
Our FDA cleared and approved Class IV Laser machine can effectively treat a wide range of symptoms caused by acute injuries, chronic pain, inflammation, soft tissue damage, and post surgical healing. In fact, Class IV laser therapy really shines on treating diabetic neuropathies and post chemotherapy neuropathies! Watching nerve damage dissipate is a game changer for anyone that experiences those pins and needles in the feet.
Will the treatment hurt?
Class 4 Laser Therapy is generally painless. Most patients report a gentle warming sensation during the treatment, which is often described as “warm and fuzzy.”
How long does each session take?
Parameters of a given session are built into the machine and can range anywhere between 5-30 minutes. Each session duration also depends on the number of symptoms being addressed and the size of the treatment area.
Is Class IV Laser Therapy right for me?
Given the safety of Class IV Laser Therapy application, most people are eligible for this beneficial therapy. However, contraindications that prohibit someone from receiving Class IV Laser Therapy are: active cancer or malignancy, pregnancy, known photosensitivity, photosensitive drugs (e.g. Doxycycline, Tetracycline, etc.), directly over the area of a tattoo, directly over the thyroid, and directly over an E-Stim, Pace-maker, and Defibrillator.
