Are There Side Effects To Laser Therapy?
Class IV lasers are FDA cleared. They follow the most strict safety regulations. Through continued research, there are no known significant side effects from laser therapy to date.
There are positive side effects, though.
For instance, you might experience flushed skin due to increased blood flow. Some people also notice a warm, soothing feeling during treatment. These effects don’t last long, only for about a few hours.
If laser therapy wasn’t administered properly, it could magnify some of your symptoms. For example, you could notice an increase in swelling or nerve pain. This is easily be corrected by adjusting treatment settings. However, all laser treatments are administered by certified staff members who have completed advanced courses and training.

Improve With Laser Therapy
Laser therapy is a safe and effective way to relieve pain. Treatment is fast, safe, and painless. Laser improves the body’s healing process by energizing cells. As a result, it helps your body use its own healing powers by starting a series of healing responses.
Often, people feel a reduction in pain during treatment. In fact, most see results in as little as 3 to 5 sessions. Beyond that, the effects can continue for up to 18 hours. That means you will continue healing even after you get home.
