Light Force Laser Therapy

Laser Therapy

Laser Therapy Technology can now be applied to penetrate the skin and affect the underlying tissues, pain receptors, and muscles. Laser Therapy has become a fixture in modern pain relief. For those suffering from chronic pain, opioid and drug-free laser therapy offers relief without invasive surgery or addictive medications. Let us get you started on your pain relief journey. Call us to find out more about how laser therapy can work for you.

What is Light Force Laser Therapy?

The Light Force laser system has been clinically proven to relieve pain associated with injuries, accidents or surgeries. Light Force Therapy has been used for years by physical therapists and athletic trainers working with professional athletes who have been injured. Using a Class IV laser, deep layers of tissue are exposed to light energy which activates the body’s healing response. This metabolic effect has a domino effect throughout the body reducing inflammation and lowering pain levels. The Light Force therapy machine looks like a box with a wand attached which can target specific areas of the body. Treatments typically last five to ten minutes and most patients experience relief in just three to five sessions. FDA cleared and strictly controlled by ISO standards, Light Force therapy is safe, painless,  non-invasive and Opioid-Free.

What Can I Expect From Laser Therapy?

Your physical therapist will be able to identify areas for treatment and the length and number of treatments you may require. Once your treatment plan is set, your physical therapist will administer laser therapy as just one of your many physical therapy services. Treatments typically last five to ten minutes. As soon as the therapy begins, you will begin to feel a soothing warmth in the areas where the laser is applied. Most patients begin to see results in as few as three treatments while others report feeling better after a single session.

What Conditions can be Treated with Laser Therapy?

Laser therapy effectively treats lower back pain, neck pain, arthritis, bursitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, plantar, and sciatica. It can also be used to treat sports injuries, sprains, and strains, or other soft tissue injuries throughout the body. Anywhere there is pain or injury, laser therapy can help. Even older injuries that have not healed properly can be improved with this type of physical therapy service. However, it is important to note that laser therapy is most effective when combined with physical therapy. While this modality addresses pain, inflammation, and healing, it increases flexibility and mobility only when combined with therapeutic exercise, stretching, and other physical therapy services.

If you are experiencing pain in any part of your body, laser therapy may be right for you. Contact Newcare Physical Therapy today for a consultation and let our Physical Therapy Specialist assess your situation. Start living the life you deserve, pain-free.

  • Before I started Physical Therapy I could not sleep on my right side, couldn’t dress or clean myself, participate in any activities at all. I was in so much pain. Now I feel that coming to NewCare Physical Therapy was the best thing that I could have done. I now take care of myself and I’m ready to go back to work!

  • Before I started Physical Therapy I was always scared to reach or do any sudden arm movements, due to my right arm popping out of socket. When I started both doctors were very helpful and explained many things that I didn’t understand about my injury. Once I went into surgery to repair my labrum tear, I came back to many exercises to slowly get my arm strong again. Both doctors were very patient and helpful in making sure I don’t over work my right shoulder. Every day I would do the arm cycle, pulley, weights, arm reaches and body blade. These exercises have allowed me to get closer to have full range of motion of my shoulder and arm. This has been a very challenging experience in my life and I am happy I came to NewCare PT. Thanks guys so much!

  • My experience at NewCare with Dr. Michael Shin has been a great experience from day one. Dr. Shin showed me great care and concern about my recovery by devising a course of treatment, explaining the purpose of the treatment and what I should expect from the treatment. He also gave careful instructions for performing special exercises at home that corresponded with the course of treatment given at NewCare. He was careful to measure my progress and encouraged me to follow the course of treatment and made adjustments as needed. The treatment afforded me a rapid recovery and allowed me to return to my normal course of life. I also observed Dr. Shin’s interaction with other individuals for similar treatment. Dr. Shin showed them a great deal of concern and personal attention. I have and will continue to recommend Dr. Shin to others for their physical therapy needs. Thank you Dr. Shin!

  • Before PT, I was unable to fully extend my left forearm. After performing the prescribed exercises, I can fully extend my left forearm. The location of the facility is convenient. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Very nice background music, too. I would highly recommend Dr. Shin and his staff.

  • Dr. Wang and Dr. Shin are great Physical Therapists and people. I spent more time with Dr. Wang who is very easy to get along with ad he understands what patients need.

    When I first began treatment, I had a hard time with certain motions with my legs. With Dr. Wang’s assistance and creativity, I have been able to continue to make strides despite a few setbacks.

    Thank you, Dr. Wang and Dr. Shin for getting me back to good health. All the best with you’re your practice. I’ll be sure to check in with you guys.

  • My name is Alexandra and I started my physical therapy with Dr. Shin in October of 2016. When I first started my therapy my knee was very weak and in a lot of pain. Due to my knee injury, I had difficulty walking, sitting, standing, etc. Dr. Shin worked very hard on making my knee stronger and to eliminate the constant pain that kept me from doing my daily activities. During the sessions, Dr. Shin performed ultrasound on my knee, electrical stimulation, different exercises involving weights, etc. Now, my knee is doing much better. The pain is almost completely gone and I am able to do my daily activities.

  • It’s the good experience of Dr. Shin that helped me with my knee pain. After my surgery, he knew the best ways to help it get better and relieve my concerns and help me heal. Dr. Shin is a great person!

  • Thank you for your kindness and customized care. Each of you played a critical part in my healing journey!

    I could barely stand on my injured ankle when I first started, but after several sessions at NewCare, I am able to stand and stretch and I am well on my way to recovery!

  • I first met Dr. Shin when he came to my home after my knee replacement. I found him to be knowledgeable and patient. I came back to see him for low back pain. After my first visit, I began to feel better. I would recommend him highly.
