Cold Laser Therapy in Butler, PA
What is cold laser therapy?
Cold laser therapy is a groundbreaking, non-invasive treatment that uses light energy to accelerate the body’s natural healing process and provide lasting relief from neuromusculoskeletal pain, soreness, and inflammation. The cold laser therapy that the Center for Pain Relief and Longevity provides is a quick and simple office treatment that has no side effects and requires no downtime. Cold laser treatments take between five and 20 minutes, depending on the number of areas being targeted for treatment.
How does cold laser therapy work?
The cold laser produces an impulse of light that penetrates the skin delivering energy units called photons to damaged cells. Once the light energy reaches these damaged cells, it is absorbed and stimulates healing by increasing circulation and drawing water, oxygen, and nutrients to the damaged area. In addition, nerve sensitivity and inflammation are reduced and the body’s own pain-relieving chemicals – endorphins and enkephalins – are released.

What does cold laser therapy feel like?
