What to Expect: Treatment is generally painless, with a gentle warmth in the treated area. Sessions are short (3–10 minutes), usually delivered over 5–10 sessions. Many patients notice immediate relief, with full benefits building gradually. Therapy is safe, requires no activity restrictions, and Class IV lasers reach deeper tissues than low-level lasers, helping with joint pain, muscle strains, tendinopathies, arthritis, chronic pain, inflammation, and delayed healing. Patients can book a session with one of our physiotherapists or chiropractors.
