Did you know that laser therapy can help reduce inflammation?

Inflammation is a common source of knee pain. It is often associated with arthritis but can be caused by many other conditions as well. Just like with other parts of the body, reducing inflammation in the knees can reduce pain. A chiropractor can reduce inflammation by making minor adjustments to the joint, or by laser therapy. Dr. Thatcher offers both methods.

Laser Therapy 

Laser therapy is an especially effective method for reducing inflammation, especially when paired with chiropractic therapy. Laser therapy accelerates healing by stimulating your cells’ ATP (energy), and reduces inflammation by suppressing the Cox-2 pathway, which is the chemical reaction the body uses to create inflammation The procedure is painless, and each session only takes about 10 minutes. Laser therapy is an excellent alternative to surgery for many conditions because it is less expensive, painless, and doesn’t have a lengthy recovery period.
