Thinking about trying cold laser therapy but not sure what to expect? You’re not alone. At Life Chiropractic & Acupuncture, we believe in making healing comfortable, effective, and stress-free — starting with your very first visit.
So, What Is Cold Laser Therapy?
Cold laser therapy (also known as low-level laser therapy or LLLT) is a non-invasive, pain-free treatment that uses focused light energy to stimulate healing at the cellular level. It’s commonly used to treat inflammation, chronic pain, joint stiffness, nerve damage, and soft tissue injuries.
Your First Visit: Step-by-Step
1. Consultation & Assessment
We’ll begin by reviewing your medical history, symptoms, and goals. Our providers will assess the area you’d like treated and determine if a cold laser is the right option for you.
2. Treatment Setup
You’ll be comfortably positioned — either seated or lying down — and the laser device will be placed over the treatment area. There's no need for sedation or preparation, and you won’t need to change clothes unless access to the treatment area requires it.
3. The Therapy Itself
The device emits low-level laser light, which may feel warm or tingly, but is completely painless. Sessions typically last 5–20 minutes, depending on the condition and area being treated.
4. Aftercare & Next Steps
There’s no downtime — most patients return to their normal activities immediately. You might feel improvement after one session, but a series of treatments is often recommended for optimal results.
