Advantages of Low Level Laser Therapy for Pain Management

behandling2

Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), also known as cold laser therapy, has multiple advantages over medication, physical therapies and in some cases surgery.

Medically Proven

Low-level laser therapy has in excess of 30 years of medical and scientific evidence, thousands of published reports and hundreds of clinical trials.

Treats the causes

It's important to note that laser therapy treats the underlying causes of pain not just the symptoms.

Non-invasive

Low-level laser therapy is totally non-invasive as opposed to surgical intervention.

Painless to receive

Patients may only feel mild warmth during treatment but the treatment itself is painless.

Drug-free

Low Level Laser Therapy delivers light to the affected area needing treatment. Unlike medications, we are not introducing any synthetic substances to your body.

Common Conditions We Treat

Neck Pain
Dr. Chow‘s own PhD research proves that cold laser therapy reduces acute neck pain immediately after treatment, and continues to provide pain relief for up to 22 weeks after completion of treatment in cases of chronic neck pain.

Arthritis Pain
At Quantum Pain Management we treat Rheumatoid and Osteoarthritis regularly. Arthritis is primarily an inflammatory condition causing it to respond well to Low Level Laser Therapy. Many patients find that they are able to manage their pain after a period of treatment and only need to see us for maintenance treatment thereafter.

Knee Pain
Persistent knee pain is very common in our elderly patients at Quantum Pain Management with many facing the prospect of surgery. Whilst surgery may be recommended by your doctor, low level laser therapy has helped many of our patients put off invasive procedures.

Nerve Pain
Nerve pain like sciatica, shingles and trigeminal neuralgia are often debilitating and non-responsive to medications. One of the primary effects of Low Level Laser Therapy is the blocking of pain, known as an analgesic effect. Over a period of treatment, we are able to desensitise the nerves, leading to lessened pain and allowing cells to heal.

Back Pain
Lower back pain is noted as one of the leading causes of chronic pain amongst patients. Low level laser therapy can lead to a reduction in inflammation and pain, as well as improve mobility, enabling you to return to activities that will strengthen your back.

Migraine
Migraine is one of the more common conditions we treat with laser therapy at Quantum Pain Management. The treatment reduces nerve activity in the upper neck region which can stimulate the migraine center.

Patients in the Press

I cannot recommend Dr Roberta Chow highly enough. After a very painful back injury her laser treatments and her recommendations got me on the road to recovery. I am so happy to have found her and so grateful for her kindness and expertise.

I first had the pleasure of meeting & being treated by Dr Roberta Chow 15 years ago, using cold laser therapy for neck pain, with great success. Many years later I returned to her for more laser treatment for bursitis & more recently for a very painful adhesive capulitis or frozen shoulder, which I am now totally pain free. I can not recommend highly enough Dr Roberta Chow & her amazing team & thank them for all their help & support along the way.

Under Dr Roberta Chow's dedicated and expert care, my quality of life has improved immensely. She has a wonderful and committed team and I am so grateful for my pain free days.
