How Cold Laser Therapy Can Dramatically Reduce Recovery Time from Injury
Tuesday, December 6, 2011
Dr. Elizabeth McNally and Dr. Aaron MacArthur, chiropractic neurologists at Portland Chiropractic Neurology, are offering patients a revolutionary way to recover from injuries. The treatment is called cold laser therapy and can help speed up the healing process and recovery time of a variety of conditions.
Portland Chiropractic Neurology’s Cold Laser treatment utilizes a particular wavelength of light which increases mitochondrial activity, and therefore energy production, in the cells which allows for quicker reduction in the inflammatory process that occurs in injured tissue. The treatment also increases DNA synthesis which allows the injured cells and tissue to heal and regenerate more quickly. The treatment is painless, non-invasive, and does not involve surgery. The doctors at Portland Chiropractic Neurology are using cold laser therapy to help patients suffering from acute neck and back pain like disc injuries as well as patients with wrist, arm, hip, knee, and shoulder injuries. “We’ve seen rapid increase in the healing time of athletic injuries like sprains, and a variety of ligamentous, muscular and skeletal injuries.” says Dr. McNally. As an authority in the field of cold laser therapy, Dr. McNally also recommends this treatment to people of all ages following surgeries, once appropriate treatment at a hospital has been provided.
At Portland Chiropractic Neurology in Portland, Maine cold laser treatment is offered by board certified Chiropractic Neurologists. Portland Chiropractic Neurology is located at 19 Commercial Street in Portland, Maine. For more information, please contact 207-699-5600
