Cold Laser Therapy in Walnut Creek
Cold laser therapy uses specific wavelengths of light to interact with tissue to help facilitate healing and repair. It may help patients with chronic or acute conditions or injuries by reducing pain and inflammation. At Holmes Chiropractic we use a Class I Multi Radiance Medical® laser, which is FDA approved. Class I or “cold” lasers do not produce heat.
Laser therapy is a safe and effective alternative to medications like pain relievers and anti-inflammatories, which can lead to many side effects. Cold laser therapy has no side effects.

Decreasing Inflammation and Spasm
The Multi Radiance Medical laser offers a unique feature to help decrease inflammation, heal tissue and reduce muscle spasm. In addition to penetrating up to seven times deeper than other classes of lasers, it incorporates technology which further increases blood flow and healing nutrients to the damaged tissue.
Laser Therapy and Chiropractic Care
Laser therapy can be a stand-alone therapy, or part of a care plan that includes chiropractic care and/or spinal decompression. Your chiropractor will conduct a thorough examination and design a care plan to meet your individual objectives.
