Class IV Laser Therapy in Ottawa
Laser Therapy for Safe, Gentle Pain Relief
If pain or inflammation is keeping you from doing what you love, you may be looking for something that does not involve more pills or surgery. Class IV laser therapy at Ottawa Chiropractic Clinic offers a gentle, drug-free way to calm irritated tissues and support healing so you can move more comfortably again.
Many practice members choose this option when chiropractic alone is not quite enough, or when they want to speed their recovery. Our warm, experienced team will talk with you about your goals and help you decide if laser care is a good fit.
How Class IV Laser Therapy Supports Healing
Class IV laser therapy is an FDA-cleared therapy that uses a focused beam of light to gently warm the tissues under your skin. This light energy helps improve circulation and cell activity in the area being addressed, which can reduce inflammation and ease pain. The therapy itself is painless, and most people describe it as a warm, soothing feeling on the skin. Because it works with your body’s natural healing processes, it is a safe option for many types of musculoskeletal problems. We often recommend laser care as part of a broader conservative plan that may also include chiropractic adjustments and rehab exercises.
Conditions Class IV Laser Therapy Can Help
Laser therapy can be a helpful option if you are dealing with stubborn pain or swelling that has not responded to other care. Common conditions we use it for include:
- Plantar fasciitis
- Bursitis and tendinitis
- Sports injuries and sprains
- Arthritis and joint pain
- Back and neck pain
What to Expect During Your Laser Therapy Visit
Your visit begins with a brief evaluation of the painful area, including your range of motion and current discomfort. Then the Class IV laser is applied directly over the skin, creating gentle warmth while you relax. A typical session lasts about 10-15 minutes. Most people do not experience instant relief, but many notice improvement within the first two to four sessions. Laser therapy is usually a cash-based service; our staff will check whether your insurance offers any coverage and review payment options with you.
