Laser Therapy for Faster Recovery After Surgery
Post-surgical rehabilitation is key to reducing your risk of complications and chronic pain or health issues. Amplify Chiropractic and Wellness may recommend laser therapy for post surgical rehabilitation in Poughkeepsie, NY to reduce recovery time, promote healing, reduce the risk of scar tissue, and relieve pain and inflammation.
What Is Laser Therapy?
Laser therapy uses specific wavelengths of low-level laser light to stimulate the cells in the body. While you won’t feel pain during the procedure, you may feel a slight warmth from the laser light. Our chiropractors will use a small, handheld device to apply laser light to targeted treatment areas. The laser light penetrates the skin and tissues to stimulate the body’s healing processes and promote cell regrowth. The procedure is minimally invasive with no downtime or recovery time, and very minimal risk of negative side effects.
How Laser Therapy Promotes Healing After Surgery
Post-surgical laser therapy re-establishes nerve pathways to enhance the healing process and decrease inflammation. The effect is cumulative, so the more treatments you undergo, the more progress you’ll show. The low wavelength laser light stimulates the body’s detoxification process and can speed the elimination of toxins like anesthesia and pain medication. It also boosts immune function, reduces pain, promotes healing, and reduces inflammation.
Why You Should Consider Laser Therapy Pre- & Post-Surgery
Laser therapy offers benefits before and after surgical procedures. In fact, laser therapy can often be a safe, effective alternative to surgery. Laser therapy can reduce inflammation and tension before surgery so that the surgery is more successful and your healing and recovery time is reduced. Laser therapy is also effective in post-surgery rehabilitation, as it can promote wound and incision healing, reduce the risk of infection, improve pain and inflammation, and help you get up on your feet faster.
