Low Level Laser Therapy

Therapy That Uses Light to Support Tissue Recovery

It uses specific wavelengths of light to support tissue recovery. It’s not like a surgical laser. It doesn’t cut. And it doesn’t heat your tissue.

How It Works

Dr. Giudice holds the laser over or near the sore area.

He holds it there for a set time. That’s all.

It’s used to support recovery and comfort. As part of a bigger plan with hands on care and rehab. It isn’t a cure on its own.

What It Feels Like

Most people feel nothing. Or mild warmth.

Here’s what happens:

  • You put on protective eyewear.

  • The laser is held over or near the area.

  • A few minutes later you’re done.

Treatment takes a few minutes per area. It can be added to a regular visit.

Is It Right for You?

Dr. Giudice decides at your exam.

Laser is used when it suits your diagnosis and your goals. It’s generally avoided:

  • Over the eyes

  • Over the abdomen during pregnancy

  • Over areas of known or suspected cancer

If laser isn’t a fit we’ll tell you. And we’ll suggest something that is.

Your Care Plan

Laser is part of our in office care plans. And it works best with the rest of your care.

How often you get laser depends on you.

It’s often paired with Neuro Orthopedic Rehab. And, when it fits, chiropractic care or shockwave. Laser supports recovery. Rehab fixes how you move.

If your body heals slowly, other things may be in the way. Dr. Giudice can look at nutrition and inflammation too. You don’t have to start over.

Good to Know

A few helpful details about how we work, what to expect, and how we make your care experience easier.

Does it hurt?

No. Most people feel nothing. Some feel mild warmth.

Is this a hot laser?

No. It doesn’t cut and it doesn’t heat your tissue.

How is it different from shockwave?

Shockwave uses pulses of sound energy. You feel strong tapping. Laser uses light. Most people feel nothing. Dr. Giudice picks what fits your case. Some plans use both.

Do I need to wear anything?

You may be asked to wear protective eyewear. That’s it.

Can I do this with my regular doctor’s care?

Yes. We work alongside your doctors.
