FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Does it hurt? What does a treatment feel like?
There is little or no sensation during a treatment. Occasionally, the patient may feel mild, soothing warmth or tingling sensations. Arease of pain or inflammation may be sensitive briefly before pain reduction.
​
Are there any side effects or associated risks?
During more than twenty years of use by healthcare professionals all over the world, very few side effects have ever been reported. Occasionally, some old injuries or pain syndromes may feel aggravated for a few days, as the healing response is more active after treatment.
​
How often should a patient receive laser therapy?
Acute conditions may be treated daily, particularly if they are accompanied by significant pain. More chronic problems respond better when treatments are received 2-3 times per week, tapering to once every week or two as improvement is seen.
​
How many laser treatments does it take?
This depends on the nature of the condition being treated. For some acute conditions, 4-6 treatments may be sufficient. Those of a more chronic nature may require 6-12 (or more) treatments.
​
How long before results are felt from laser therapy?
You may feel improvement in your condition (usually pain reduction) after the very first treatment. Sometimes, you will not feel improvement for a number of treatments. This does not mean that the condition is not improving. Each treatment is cumulative and results are often felt after 3-4 treatments.
