cold laser therapy:
Cold or low-level laser therapy has revolutionized the treatment of injuries in the sports world since the 2000 Olympics. Lance Armstrong writes about it in his book. NFL teams use it. It is just beginning to penetrate the medical establishment in the U. S. I got involved with it because a friend of mine is on the medical staff of an Olympic team. I will confess to you, that not all joint problems can be helped with Chiropractic adjustment. Sometimes a joint that is in proper position can suffer from overuse, inflammation, or structural degradation i.e. arthritis.The painless cold laser treatment causes the body's own cells to reduce inflammation and pain immediately and promotes healing in the long term, all that, with no negative side effects. If it seems too good to be true, that's what I think every time I use it on a 70+ year old patient's arthritic knee, with almost no remaining cartilage by MRI, and they tell me they can walk up stairs normally without pain after one treatment
