What Is Photobiomodulation (Cold Laser Therapy)?

Cold laser therapy, also known as photobiomodulation, is a safe, non-invasive treatment that uses therapeutic light to stimulate healing in damaged tissues. The light energy penetrates the skin and triggers beneficial photochemical reactions within your cells helping the body heal itself naturally.

How It Works:

  • Energizes Cells: Stimulates mitochondria to produce more ATP (your body’s cellular energy).

  • Boosts Circulation: Improves blood flow and oxygen delivery to injured areas.

  • Accelerates Repair: Speeds up cell regeneration and tissue healing.

  • Reduces Inflammation: Provides natural relief without drugs or side effects.

Think of it like photosynthesis for your body energizing weakened or damaged cells so they can recover, repair, and function optimally.

Frequently Asked Questions
(FAQs)

Our Laser Therapy (photobiomodulation) reduces pain, swelling, and inflammation while accelerating healing at the cellular level. Many Akron patients use laser therapy for joint pain, neuropathy, and soft tissue injuries. It is also used to heal wounds and brain injuries.

MR4 and Erchonia are types of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) that use light energy to stimulate healing in the body. Unlike surgical lasers that cut tissue, these therapeutic lasers use safe, non-heat-producing light to improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and speed recovery. Patients in Akron, Ohio often use them for pain relief, wound healing, and nerve support.

Yes. Studies show that low-level lasers can stimulate nerve regeneration and reduce neuropathic pain. Patients with chronic nerve pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, or sciatica often report less discomfort and better mobility after consistent treatments.

Yes. Both MR4 and Erchonia lasers are commonly used for arthritis, joint pain, tendonitis, sprains, and sports-related injuries. The light energy penetrates deep into tissues, reducing inflammation and encouraging natural repair at the cellular level. Many athletes use it to recover faster and get back to activity sooner.

Absolutely. Laser therapy can improve circulation, reduce swelling, and promote tissue repair after surgery. It is also effective for wounds, ulcers, and soft tissue injuries, helping speed the healing process while reducing discomfort.

Laser therapy is safe, painless, and FDA-cleared. During a session, you may feel gentle warmth or nothing at all. Most patients describe it as relaxing, and many notice pain relief shortly after treatment. There are no known long-term side effects.
