At Capital Chiropractic, we continually look for the latest and most innovative techniques to help our patients find relief from aches and pains. One of these procedures is called Cold Laser Therapy, or low-level light therapy, which has successfully treated acute and chronic conditions for many years. Cold Laser Therapy can also be used after a new injury to speed healing and stop further damage. Cold Laser Therapy at Capital Chiropractic in Sacramento may help improve the following:
When I first walked into Chiropractor back in May, I was in so much pain from a back injury that I could barely sit down. Bending over was out of the question, and sleep was a struggle. Fast forward four months, and I'm a completely different person. The pain is gone, and I'm back to enjoying my active life again. Dr. Nick Kubler is the real deal. He’s incredibly skilled and knew exactly how to help me heal. Beyond his expertise, his compassionate and humane approach made all the difference. He truly listens and makes you feel like you're in good hands. An incredible place, and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of top-notch care.

I had such a great experience here! It was my first ever visit to a chiropractor and they made me feel so at ease. Dr Kubler went over my x-rays and helped me figure out a wellness plan that would suit me best. The office staff are so sweet as well!

I had been dealing with chronic pain in my neck and back for some time and knew I needed an adjustment. After a quick Google search, I found this practice and decided to check it out—and I’m so glad I did! During my visit, Nick walked me through my X-rays, clearly explaining the source of my pain and laying out a proposed treatment plan to address it. After just a couple of adjustments, I’m virtually pain-free and can fully understand why they have such glowing reviews. I came in because of those reviews and the great introductory offer, but I became a customer after experiencing the outstanding professionalism, care, and positive energy from everyone here. Ten out of ten, would absolutely recommend!

We utilize Cold Laser Therapy to provide the best care for our patients and help our patients reach their goals. It is highly effective for treating both chronic pain and acute injuries. The visible red light releases frequencies to the targeted area. This light can promote healing by increasing the cells' energy levels and improving communication between the cells.
Cold lasers are handheld wands, usually the size of a flashlight, that use specific wavelengths of light to accelerate cell regeneration. Our clinic's chiropractor will place the laser directly over the area of focus for a few minutes. As the light energy reaches the targeted area, it can help eliminate pain and reduce swelling. You can also combine Cold Laser Therapy with other treatments for optimal results.
If you're experiencing pain, we'd very much like to help you. Contact our chiropractic office in Sacramento at the first sign of a problem! Let us help you enjoy life's activities to the fullest.
We use Class IV lasers with specific wavelengths (typically 800-1000 nm) that penetrate tissue deeply without generating heat. These parameters optimize cellular repair stimulation while maintaining patient comfort during treatment.
Laser energy stimulates mitochondria to produce more ATP, enhancing cellular repair capacity. This accelerates healing in damaged tissues, reduces inflammatory mediators, and modulates pain signals at neurological levels.
Superficial issues like wounds or skin conditions use different parameters than deep joint or disc problems. We adjust power density, treatment time, and application technique based on tissue depth and condition type.
Acute injuries may improve in 3-6 sessions, while chronic conditions often require 8-12 treatments. We track progress through symptom monitoring and functional testing at Capital Chiropractic in Sacramento.
Research shows effectiveness for carpal tunnel syndrome, osteoarthritis, tendinitis, and wound healing. While mechanisms continue being elucidated, clinical outcomes at our clinic align with published studies.
We often use laser before adjustments to reduce inflammation and muscle tension, creating better conditions for joint mobilization. The combination addresses both cellular and structural aspects of musculoskeletal problems.
We use protective eyewear, avoid treatment over tattoos or dark pigmentation, and follow specific contraindication guidelines. Proper training ensures safe, effective application for various conditions.
While clinic-grade lasers offer greater power, certain home devices can provide maintenance benefits. We guide patients on appropriate home therapy options based on their specific conditions and treatment goals.
